Only a few days voting (most of which was castle paradox downtime) for a month-long contest?

Aw man... I forgot about the downtime. In light of that, I am extending the voting for another week. The last day will be April 7.

Sorry for the trouble.

I think the rules were 1-5, not 0-5. If I knew I could have voted 0's I would have.

Newbie_Power - Refia: 3 - Somewhat static, but still a very good sprite. Really nice work on the shading, and colors in general.
TwinHamster - Lauretta: 2 - Now isn't that adorable.
TwinHamster - Lauren: 3 - Now I know this was just a sellout entry, but the colors are really good.
Fenrir-Lunaris - Freki: 3 - Dude, I respect you and everything, but there is something about this picture that is just boring to me.
the_dude257 - Feona: 2 - Interesting choice with the dithering. Not necessarily effective, but interesting nonetheless. I'll go ahead and not mention the inexplicable shaped ponytail and the inordinately small head, but there's something about your style I find rather endearing.
Uncommon - Feather: N/A - You know, it's not actually in the rules to not vote for your own, we kind've all just followed TwinHamster's lead? Oh, ethics. And I know I'm getting some taking some flak for the minimalistic approach to shading, but that's always the way that felt most right to me.
Rinku - Palette 0: 2 - This is something, to be sure, but I'm just not feeling it.
HarlockHero - Moxie Pluck: 5 - Sharp, sassy. Nice. I didn't like the contrast on the shading at first, but it fits well, really. Gives her clothes a leathery shine.
Komera - Shera: 4 - Now this is just a great picture, the scope of which alone is commendable, but there's some lines I can't quite process, and I think the angle on the left leg should've been a little lower.
Inspiration - Roberta: 1 - I cannot make out her face. I see the beard and the lipstick, but there are way too many colors crammed into the face for any of them to resolve themselves. Cute, but not clear. There are times when iconism must take precedent over detail.
PHC - Pengirl: 4 - oh man is there any way i can get her number do you think? Really though, the costuming is delightful. Even if you've never been the best pixelist, you more than make up for it with your charm.
Battleblaze - Anna: 2 - Now she's a cute girl, but it really does look like you put a chick's facial features on a dude's head and body. (i am so resisting the urge to say so many things about her "oh i'm so innocent will you please fuck me" expression right now)
Onlyoneinall - Janie: 2 - It looks good, it's just it doesn't really grab me.
Jack - Kathleen: 4 - Though I can't agree with your choice of skin tones, nor how flat the head looks, it really is a darling picture aside from that. Though her right arm's a bit skinny in comparison. The background is fantastic.
James Paige - Pixel Angel: 5 - I'm trying to find fault in this and I don't know why. I have always thought it interesting that many of your female faces look very feline.

Good entries all around, though. I may not've liked them all, but I still find them delightful.

I guess someone can't read. Me please give a proper points to the entries(0 does not qualify as a valid vote, therefore your entire votes will be rejected)

Applying the NOT operator works wonders, heh.
