Round note: When I saw all these subtexts I thought wow, people are very creative. Overall the standard is very good. Remember that people seeing the subtext on the signature, form an impression within a split second, so each subtext has to capture not only the signature mood but also relate to it's user.

cateraction - How bright the stars' song
At first glance people would say 'huh?' even though I hope I understood the relationship between the song and waves of light you were trying to convey. The sentiment was good but the actual text could have been better. 6/10

Ryguy - The Sky's Mystical Lightshow
I like this subtext but feel the use of capitals was overdone 7/10

Pixalation - Of spellbinding phenomenon scattering the shadows
A bit of a mouthful to say (even though it does fit on signature) perhaps a simpler version (drop the 'Of'). I like how it relates to both the signature and it's user 8.5/10


oogabooga - Shimmering in the sky *fade* as bright as my soul. Well done. You have related the subtext to both the signature and the user 8.5/10

Benladesh - Drowning the stars in radiance
Another good subtext well done (see ooga's comments)8.5/10

Q77 - Doom of Darkness *fade* Commencement of Light
I feel the mood of your subtext is a bit dark for this signature and each part is disjointed from the other part. 6/10

Lord_Owlstar - A halo of light ... dances in the sky
Other than changing 'dances' to dancing, I feel this could work quite well 7.5/10

brett618 - shining bright *fade* through the darkness of it all
Again there is not a lot of darkness in this signature and it also feels disjointed. 6/10

professorelite - it floats so softly up above *fade* a painted sky depicts a dream
The use of the fade saves this from being too long. I like the idea behind this subtext but feel it's not quite right - the words convey a great image but seem too wordy 7.5/10

Blk Mage - Nature's Radiance
Simple and to the point and depending on the font could be stunning 8.5/10

cateraction - How bright the stars' song
This doesn't quite work, because there are no stars in the signature. I would imagine this to go with something like an image of the Milkey Way or a galaxy or some form of that. I dont think it works very well here. - 6/10

Ryguy - The Sky's Mystical Lightshow
I actually kind of like this, Lightshow is a unique word and I think this works quite nicely. Good job. - 8.5/10

Pixalation - Of spellbinding phenomenon scattering the shadows
I think, in my opinion, perhaps a comma should be put between Phenomenon and Scattering, or perhaps a fade. Right now it looks like a mouthful. - 8/10

oogabooga - Shimmering in the sky *fade* as bright as my soul.
Heh, this works, but it sounds a little bit cliche as the whole "Soul, Life etc." thing is overused quite a bit in this competition. However, I still like the wording of this, and it delivers a nice message. - 7.5/10

Benladesh - Drowning the stars in radiance
I absolutely love this one. I think it works great with the signature, as there aren't any stars. The word "Drowning" works wonderfully here. Awsome job! - 9.5/10

Q77 - Doom of Darkness *fade* Commencement of Light
If you think of the aurora, it changes shape very slowly and dreamily. This subtext feels a little too choppy, as in, the sudden contrast between darkness and light. Just not quite right for this signature. - 6.5/10

Lord_Owlstar - A halo of light ... dances in the sky
I actually kind of like this one. Halo is a good word, even if the aurora doesn't resemble one. The ellipse is awkward in the subtext though. - 7.5/10

brett618 - shining bright *fade* through the darkness of it all
This is simple, and very mich expected... still works though. Not much to say... - 7/10

professorelite - it floats so softly up above *fade* a painted sky depicts a dream
I like this one, the wording of it is very nice and gives you a nice surreal feeling. The subtext itself is vauge and that is very good for a signature like this. Good job. - 8.5/10

Blk Mage - Nature's Radiance
This is simple, but it works. And it has a nice ring to it, and fits the signature very well. Not much to say... - 8/10

No one is eliminated.

The Bonus goes to Benladesh this round.

Candy, looks like the assorted licorice kind to me.

Oh.. I thought it was some sdort of gummy's, but wasn't sure.

*tempted to say taste the rainbow *

I'm waiting for the obligatory "eat me." subtext.

*Tosses rock at Ben for winning the Bonus*

Ehh...I didn't really even try that round...

Anyways, if I don't win this one, I will be mad. Candy and me are like best friends!

Not sure about this one, so I might change it later...

Ooga, I was going to put that, but I thought it would be to obvious and plain...
