Really, really, really hard to choose a single best graphic this month...I mean, damn, that's a lot of skilled work there guys! There's any number of graphics that could be dubbed the best...hmmm, I'll take Ogedei's for the fact that I can use it in my Sengoku mod (when work starts on that again :blush:).

I had to go with the Asia Buildings pack as well, for the same reason.

However, it was an extremely difficult choice, as Carthage is my favorite Civ and those buildings rock my Utican socks off.

One vote for the Carthaginian set!

Fantasy advisor set looks spectacular IMO. The victorian city screen was a close second for me. I'm surprised it doesn't have any votes.

Asian Building pack, although the Victorian city screen icons were a close second.

Wow, this is an amazing competition. I can pick at least four that seemed like winners right off the bat, in the end it'll be the fantasy advisers for me but seven high quality submissions!

Everyone is right, this is a really hard choice. After much debate (with myself, is that bad?) I had to choose the Victorian city screen icons. It's that kind of attention to detail that makes mods superb, and I, for one, can't wait until the SP mod is finished.

I'm finding it really difficult to chose. There's four that could possibly get my vote: Grandraem's advisors, varwnos' orthodox church, Ogedei's buildings and Redalert's Carthaginian pack. I am really torn.

I'm going to think about it and vote later!

This contest is quite interesting :) I had thought that Grandraem would win it more easily this month.

I just realized I didn't put a poll closed date on these polls, I will declare the winners Sunday Noon GMT.

It was very close, these are all A+ quality graphics, but Varnwos's cathedral was particularly beautiful.

I like all of them... hmm... I think... (minutes of thinking)... Ogedai's, because I like the texture on the roofs of them all and the port is just really special...

All of them are awesome, it was REALLY hard to choose!

Congrats Grandraem! Your work was truly excellent (though I voted for Varwnos). You all were pretty much tied.
