I did one last year (still available on my website, see my signature).
For all the hours I put into it, I found that it just wasn't worth it. Seems to be a popularity contest, as are most publicly voted contests. My friends were just too lazy to vote, and I didn't feel like whoring it out on Twitter and Facebook.

Yeah the best entries don't win those kinds of contests, just the people with the most friends they've pimped out the contest voting page too.

This is so effing stupid. ._. I submitted something five days and it's still not up.
God forbid they at least send you an e-mail saying WHY they didn't accept it.
