YOU don't decide what's creative. Just because the idea was POPULAR, does not mean it was not creative. Dressing up as Impressio was uncreative. It's a Coatee set and a pumpkin head--bam Impressio...boring. All the entries that stood out to me, won. I don't recall being impressed by any that didn't make it. A few made it that I was not impressed by, but that's me. Would I have chosen the winners different? A few, yes, for the most part, no. There is no scientific or mathematical approach to creativity. It's an opinion.

I entered that egg painting contest too. I worked real hard on it and thought I did real well. I didn't win, and lots I thought were terrible did win...I didn't go and pitch a fit over it, I didn't try to claim the judging was unfair or rigged. The judges judge by their OWN opinion, and apparently my entry did not impress them. Oh well, life moves on. You all need to realize that this is NOT as big a deal as you're making it out to be.
