MacRumors Apple Ad Contest Results

As MacRumors' Forums approached its 3 millionth post, some of our forum members participated in an Apple Ad Contest to produce either an original Apple Print Ad or Apple Video Ad. Any level of experience was welcome and the contest was meant to be a fun outlet for our members. The results are in, and here are the winners:

great turn out, especially considering this was not very publicized. In the future, we may have to try it again... with a little more exposure and maybe some real prizes.

I agree, I completely forgot about the contest until the polls were put on the top of the main forums page. Also if I remember correctly, the announcement was made on Page 2... thought it was quite odd.
