Voting
All submissions will be put up for a vote on Sick Puppies' official and pages within 1 week of the contest end. Please DO NOT reveal which submission is your own so the voting process can be as fair as possible.
Prize
Prizes will be given in EACH category.
For categories #1 and #2, prizes will be given to both the best carved pumpkin AND the best drawn pumpkin, as decided by your votes. Winners will each receive a Sick Puppies Prize (may include a CD single, tshirt, stage-used drumsticks, etc. - it's a surprise!), as well as 100 points.
For category #3 (younger fans decorating category), the winner will receive an autographed Sick Puppies item.
Please note that if there aren't enough entrants for one of the categories (we require AT LEAST five entrants per category), both categories will be merged and one prize will be given. To clarify, if we only receive two drawings (for example), the entries will be merged with the carved category and only one prize will be awarded.
