(In no particular order. ^^)
Glow - Your designs are unique as well and I particularly liked your first one. You may keep one of your designs as a custom, and I'll PM you about the others. You may be a guest artist for 2 weeks, creating up to three designs, if you would like. c:
Graysen - Your designs are chaotic and... contained? (flais around for better word x3) at the same time. That's a compliment, is case my poor word choice made it sound otherwise. xD You may keep one of your designs as a custom, and I'll PM you about the other. You may be a guest artist for 2 weeks, creating up to three designs, if you would like. ^^
.::Tiger::., Anime100, & Faded Demin - These designs (Tiger, Anime, & Denim) may be keep as part of your 3-TR-limit (meaning you can only adopt two more) or be put up for adoption if you'd like. ^^ I liked these three, but I've got enough artists to last a while by now. x3
Thank you everyone for entering! For those of you who didn't win, I wish you best of luck in future contests. c: For those of you who did, just PM me if you have any questions. Those who have earned an artist position (either full staff or guest artist) will be added to the adopts lines and can start designing right away. When everyone's let me know about their winning entries, I or the original artist of each can copy the ones going UFA onto the adoption center lines. ^^
What is a Tree Runner?
Tree Runners are mammals about the size of a large horse that spend much of their lives in trees. Claws and spikes, wide paws and strong legs help them to bound effortlessly up trees and their long tail and flexible bodies give them balance. They have thick, soft fur that keeps them warm in flight. Domesticated Tree Runners can be saddle trained, though one should never attempt to ride a climbing or flying Tree Runner unless it has had the proper strength training - it can be dangerous for both of you!

Note to all contestants wrote:You guys made judging this contest really hard. I wanted to give up and have a three- or four- or five-way tie for first. xD But alas, it couldn't be done. However, if there are designs I like but did not place, I'll have some Runner-Up rewards for those designs and/or their artists.

1st Place Winner wrote:Congratulations to Bronwyn! I loved all your designs, especially the two wild TRs, and you made some great lineart edits. Please let me know which design you'd like to keep or whether you plan to make a custom instead (if you choose to keep one as your custom, you may edit the design as you wish). Also, let me know the fate of the other two (or three, if you decide not to keep any of them). Also, please send your trade for the 10 pets from my trade group. ^^

Second Place Winner wrote:Kitteh, I swear your designs are just too awesome. And the horns on your second entry are just pure luff. Tell me which you plan to keep or if you will be making a custom. ^^ If you decide to keep one of your entries as your custom, you may edit it to your liking. Also, because it was a close tie for first, you may gift your entries to friends as well, if you'd like. I'll PM you when you can send the trade for your pets prize.

Third Place Winner wrote:Last but certainly not least, Sola! Your designs are really unique and creative, and the markings on your second entry just blew me away. Please let me know about your custom, whether you will keep one of your entries or design on later on. As with the others, you may edit one of the entries if you choose to keep it as your custom. And, I'm also letting you gift your designs (or otherwise, please let me know their fates) because there were really such small gaps between the places and I would have tied all three of you for first if that would have been fair. x3 I'll PM you when you can send the trade for the pets prize. ^^
