Let's Build the Future Together!

The amount of detail in this picture is nothing but amazing. The creator, Oleg Melnichuck, must have spent countless hours on this illustration. There's no doubt that this picture deserves max attention from both the Opera community, but also from respective design communities. Oleg can look forward to receive an Opera latop bag packed with goodies. Congratulations, and thanks for creating this masterpiece.

Operaman and Speed Dial

Khadgar's motivation for creating this super(hero) cool comic of the Operaman with his sidekick Speed Dial was to receive a cheesy cheese slicer. This is one of the coolest drawings we've ever seen and we know that many Opera employees who already have found their new favorite wallpaper or screensaver picture. A favorite among the Opera staff, but also (now) for the Opera community. We'll personally make sure Khadgar receives a brand new My Opera t-shirt and his cheese slicer.

Opera In Flames

The third place was suggested from one of our users. It has quality written all over it and has a really cool fire element to it. You can never go wrong with that.

Opera Fan Art

We also received 30 more great submission which all deserves a spotlight.

We're sure there are a lot of other great Opera fan art out there, so keep it coming. We would like to thank everyone who submitted their work. We had a lot of fun with this contest.

Didn't expect anything to come even close to what Khadgar did but Olegs picture indeed is more than impressive!

thanks everyone for the comments and thanks for the contest! Great entries! Was very interesting and pleasant to participate!

Khadgar, great painting! Agree with Helmers — there should be a 'Speed-dial Man Returns' or something like that

One of those links with the thumbnail http://files.myopera.com/EspenAO/albums/454008/3.jpg points to http://my.opera.com/artewebs/albums/ when it should be pointing to http://my.opera.com/IceArdor/blog/2007/09/21/opera-web-2-0
I'm glad my work got found, though I'm a bit more proud of this one: http://files.myopera.com/IceArdor/files/opera%20web20%20fire%202%20wallpaper.png

yeeliberto # 19. January 2008, 15:08

Are the remaining pictures at random order? or place from 4th to 30th?

djosh_losh # 20. January 2008, 00:33

nooo, your work is not better than mine

yeeliberto # 20. January 2008, 01:11

Nah. I will show you I'm better. I only just need to learn a little bit inkscape (like Ilustrator) and I will show you why.

By the way, I like the style of this picture of yours. Ah, yes, which is your picture for the contest?

djosh_losh # 20. January 2008, 01:19

if you are 4 i'm 12
it's not logical is it?

yeeliberto # 20. January 2008, 01:49

Logical is. 4 comes before 12. hahaha

ofiginuri # 20. January 2008, 07:36

waw! №1 cool!

ofiginuri # 20. January 2008, 07:40

why png - are not used to publish work?

melnichuck # 20. January 2008, 07:54

Since PNG is lossless format it would double (or in this case even tripple) the 'weight' of image. But thus we could see the original quality. Maybe it should be set like a requirement next time
