Alright ladies and gents of the internets! I have a contest to propose with a real tangible prize (kind of).
I'm willing to throw down for a purchased copy of Minecraft as the prize, gifted to you or the person of your choice.
The contest will be as follows:
Create an original work of Minecraft art. Be it a picture, a comic, a story, a video, a song maybe? The format doesn't matter. Work on your submissions and post them here for the world to see. Saturday at midnight... I'll say GMT, the contest closes.
Then the voting begins and it will be done by you the community. Another thread will be opened with the vote shortly after the contest closes. The winner will be decided Monday at 1200 GMT.
Show us what you've got!
PS: I'm looking for someone to help me moderate this as my schedule gets a little hectic shortly.

Our Google which art in cyberspace,
Hallowed be thy domain.
Thy search to come,
Thy results be done..
Considering this is a community vote contest, and also considering the general attitude of the people here that I've observed, I expect something either meme-related or something considered funny by the general forum populace to win.
Since I forgot how to post a picture.
I am going to write a story.
Hug Love
A Minecraftian was mining late night searching for precious diamonds.
Deep in his mine he heard crying, eager to see who was crying he destroyed rock and gold in his path.
He saw a creeper edging closer and closer to the lava trying to end it's life, tears streaming down from the creeper's eyes falling in the boiling lava.
The creeper slowly put down it's foot in the lava and yelped with pain.
The Minecraftian could not see more, he yelled "STOP"
The Creeper looked at him "Can you hug me I want to feel love but I have no arms?" the creeper said sadly.
The minecraftian hugged the creeper and gained a new friend, the only friend he had together in the harsh world
The minecraftian fed the the creeper with grilled pork and bandaged the creeper's leg with wool from the sheep.
"I want arms so I can not only feel love but share love" said the creeper watching the sunset.
The mincraftian thought that made sense so he abandoned his jobs and set out to find a creeper some arms.
He gave the creeper some sticks but they snapped to easily while hugging.
He gave the creeper some rock but they were to heavy to hug with.
He gave the creeper some gold and gold was great not too heavy, not too weak.
It was great gold does have a purpose thought the minecraftian.
He and the creeper glad they had each other.
They explored caverns, mountains.
On a long exploring trip, the mincraftian yelled "Race you to that hill!"
The minecraftian ran, the creeper hopped.
Suddenly giant spiders ambushed them, one of the spiders bit the minecraftian but he didn't care you never can kill a spider without getting bitten.
They slaughted the spiders with teamwork.
But the minecraftian felt ill and collapsed venom from the spider slowly killing him.
His last words were "You have felt and shared love, everything you wanted and deserved"
If you see a creeper with golden arms don't be afraid he just wants a hug.
Hoped you like it!:biggrin.gif:

I made this a little while ago to demonstrate fluid physics to Notch. He gave me a brofist.
Mind clicking the Egg after you click the adult? I still need to perform some CALIBRATIONS.
It's a block exploding and and then a bunch of blocks falling, it's that what you're thinking of?

Here's hoping I'm wrong.
Screw your dragons, I have Pokemon.
