Agreed, props to 1froggy13 & Melanie T hit Aang's glow right on the head (pun intended). I also really like Logan's "Appa" plus Matt U's "Sokka and Momo" is seriously sweet too.

I'm about to cry. I went to upload my pumpkin picture from my Dad's digital camera and found it didn't get saved. I can take another picture, but it's already started mushing out. It wasn't that great, but I liked it, and now I'll have nothing to remember him by. I hate when my pumpkins die. I'm going to try to take a picture still. Can I still post it here even though the contest is over?

Man, I've really enjoyed all the entries. I really dig that one that reflects the logo on the back wall! Here's some progress photos of my pumpkin this year: POSSIBLE SPOILER:I chose the Blue Spirit to celebrate his "poignant" apperance (those who've seen it already will know what I mean) in this Friday's Lake Laogai episode.I thought I'd try a level-carved pumpkin this year. One that's not fully cut through to the inside, but has different layers of thickness carved out of the skin. I started out making a grayscale stencil to determine the layers depths: After punching in the lines I traced the "connect-the-dot" pattern with an exacto blade just deep enough to cut the skin so I could start carving off the first layer: Then I used a variety of wood carving tools to strip out the layers of cold, wet, pumpkin husk. Advantage: Carving a vegetable is easier than carving wood. Disadvantage: Your fingers get really stinkin' cold & achey from scooping out all the juicey layer shavings. One thing that really helped while carving was having the shop light shining through the top hole to show me how much glow I'd be getting. Two hours later (hey, you don't wanna rush art): And finally after four hours we're done. I drilled a small hole in the back and wired up a light bulb & fixture to make it glow. It was much brighter than using a candle especially since I wanted to leave the porch light on above it. I voted for you, I think that was the best one
