Hello

Well, our marvellous judges have judged, and our hardworking database bees have totted up the totals... and it's time to announce the winners of MOO's Super-Duper Holiday Card Competition.

We have four winners, one in each category: Best Photo, Best Non-Photo, Best Selling and Funniest. It's been amazingly hard judging the brilliant entries - every single one of the three thousand, four hundred and thirty four designs in the pool is someone's hard work and holiday cheer. We really appreciate the time everyone put in to making the competition such an amazing success.

We've also picked six runners up - entries that were in the running up to the very shortest of shortlists. This is to make the Winners list up to a total of ten images. Why? Because we'll be making a special Ready Made Winners pack, so we can keep raising money for Médecins Sans Frontièrs. The pack will go on sale later this afternoon.

So - without further ado - Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you.... OUR WINNERS!

i hate to be the black sheep but i just don't see where's the funny in the "funniest" card :-P no offense to jeffholmes i'm just being honest. and to my sadness the ones that won were chosen more on popularity and interestingness rating than by any jury choice :-P

but hey it's christmas and it's all for a good cause, so congratulations everyone and thanks to moo cards for this oportunity.

Helder: It might be an American thing, but we were trying to go for a stylized 50's perfect family.

The concept was based somewhat on the TV show "Leave it to Beaver" or "Saturday Evening Post" magazine covers, or Norman Rockwell paintings.

The whole "Wife with a vacuum and a pie", while the father reads Christmas stories to children, is so idealistic in this day and age that its supposed to be funny.

I agree, some of the winning images seemed to be based on popularity rather than the judges opinions. I'm sorry but I don't get the impression that this was a neutral vote.

But hey, congrats to the winners, lucky you!
