Acceptance Speech: Harry
Return to Winner's Page

I would like to thank everyone who voted for me in all the fanart area's, I was overjoyed to see my stuff made enough of an impression that it got nominated in five different sections.

I want to thank the Organisors, and a special thank you to Evie who's early fics got me addicted to P/Jo fanfiction and without the addiction I never would have ever attempted to make banners for the genre, And also AbiG who's invitation to her Fic Snob board sparked the flame that once again got me making fan-art.

The Judges who must have had a torrid time deciding the winner for all the sections specially as there is such a vast array of talent out there nowaday.

Also a special thanks to my early fans Monica and Sarah-Jane who gave me the confidence early on by thinking my work good enough to promote their fiction.

To Noreen, Jaime and Northbay, the three people who early on encouraged me,helped me and inspired me early on to to become a better fan-artest and always driving to do better each go.

Again to Noreen, The Best friend anyone could ever have, and an amazing Fan-artist herself who really has been a great help over the years.

And Lastly To Katie Holmes, whose smile is my biggest inspiration, well next to P/Jo ofcourse.

How could I forget my parter in crime, Photoshop, with it's masking tools, and plug-ins and visual and lighting effects, my work wouldn't look anyway near as good as it does without the ultimate tool at my disposel.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't think I would win anything, but I honestly did not think I would win the best Fan-Artist, that's like winning best movie at the oscars or something for me, I didn't think I had a chance specially atfter seeing the work of the other fan-artists, they are both some of the best i've seen, not just in the P/JO genre but at Fanart as a whole, so winning in front of them is just bloody amazing and quite shocking, and I am positive someone made an error somewhere, but I won so..:p it's mine now and no one else is getting it...Hey I get an award or something right? maybe a watch or something? because let's face it those stupid awards they give out are no use other than paperweight, watches you can make good use of, and it tells the time, so a watch would be nice :d ;)

Thanks you Everyone!!!!!!!
