PixarPlanet Awards 2012 - Winners!

I can’t believe I won something, and my game won too. Thank you guys so much! :mrgreen:

!

Thank you so much for hosting the awards TDIT and little_chef! I know how much time and effort you put into these awards, thank you!

And much congratulations to the Spirits! I admire how you’ve been able to be a constant presence on the forums, despite how slow this year has been.

And I’m happy that you guys voted me to be most likely person you’d like to meet in person! Because I would love to meet all of you, since you are all my friends.

Cheers all around everyone! I’ll update the Pixar Planet Award Winners thread tonight.

Didn’t win anything, oh well. I don’t really go on here much anymore anyway.

Congrats to all the winners! :smiley:

First off, let me thank my co-host, little_chef, for helping out with the awards! Not only is she an active member and inspiring artist, but a wonderful friend, not just to me, but to everyone else on the forum. I am proud to say that I have hosted this year’s awards with you, Sara, and I look forward to many more awesome years ahead.

Thank you to everyone who nominated and voted me. I am grateful for winning three awards this year, despite my inactivity at the start of last year (due to my moving to another country, new job, etc). I strive to make everyone smile as much as possible, even though it doesn’t work out all the time (I gotta work on my puns), so I’m humbled that you think of me as a funny guy (along with the amazing IV) and a good critiquer. I was really gobsmacked that my avatar would win, especially with it having nothing to do with Pixar! It is also interesting that when I started out here, I was a prolific video-maker, but now that crown has gone to little_chef - and rightfully so, though I hope to make a big comeback this year, fingers crossed!

King-gratulations to all the other winners too. Spirit’s wins are well-deserved, they are an amazing combo tag team of elite graphic-makers and wealth of movie info. EJE is the nicest member around, and I can see why everyone would like to meet her in-person. OWP, Leirin, you’re kind and all-round good members too. Pixarfan91, keep your chin up, I’m a huge fan of your sigs. JSWeC, little_chef, Mitch, MissCarrera, Violet Parr, and S330 fully deserve their wins for such amazing fanart and being the most hardworking fanwork creators. PixarTeo, I don’t know if you’re a great thread creator, but you’re certainly a friendly and awesome person.

To all those who didn’t win, don’t despair. Some of the votes were really close! I think it should be alright to say that Wreck-It-Ralph, for example, won by just one vote from Brave in the Best Animated Film category (Congrats to Ralphie for sweeping both movie categories!). And, of course, the Best Sig category was a never-before-in-the-history-of-this-forum four-way tie. Which is why every vote counts, and I strongly encourage everyone to take part in next year’s awards so we have less of these ties.

Anyway, long story short, thank you to everyone, not just the winners, not just the nominees, not just the voters, commenters, and observers, but everyone who contributes meaningfully to this forum in any way. Your presence here is what makes this website worth visiting, and I think that’s more than any “empty cup” or a “medal” can provide for.

Oh stop it you! :blush:

This! Amazing reference to two films that is very true!

And I’ve updated the Pixar Planet Winners throughout the years thread! Take a look!

Pixar Planet Winners 2008-2012

Hooray! I won an awards for my Ratatouille sig! Thank you all very much! :smiley:

Congratulations to all our winners this year! Your wins are truly deserved so go ahead enjoy knowing that you’re a great force here at Pixar Planet!

If hell freezes over and I get spare time (which I seem to have very little of), y’all may get a little special surprise (read: user banners)… :wink:

Congratulations to everybody! I’m surprised I was able to move down to the finalist category in two different spots. Furthermore, I am even happier that seemingly most of the people I nominated won for the categories in which I voted for them! Again, great job to all of you guys!

Congrats to all the very deserving winners! :mrgreen: I’m still happy about having 8 nominations, so I don’t care that I didn’t win anything. 8D

Wow, I’m seriously honored that I actually won—in two categories no less!! :open_mouth: :smiley: Thank you all!! And congrats to everyone, even those who didn’t place!

Congrats! I loved looking at everyone’s work! :smiley:

You guys are all fantastic! We have such a lovely company of members on this site, and we always have. It’s so fun to be able to highlight you guys and your accomplishments every year, so I’m super happy we were able to hold the awards again this year, even with the inactivity of the last year.

And know that even if you didn’t win anything, or get nominated for anything, you all are still a part of the wonderful sense of camaraderie that this forum holds. As Chef Gusteau likes to emphasize, everyone in the “kitchen” is important! :smiley:

I’m overwhelmed by the awards I received this year, you guys. I really am. ;___; I can’t thank you all enough for considering me the best PP Staff Member or someone likely to get a job at Pixar (tied with Mitch, whom I consider to be a sister… we have seriously talked about working at Pixar together someday, so the tie is rather ironic! :laughing:).

Not to mention, I’m flattered by the sweep in the fandom categories… thank you all, so very much! <3 Like all of our wonderful fan work creators, I put lots of love (and blood, sweat, and very real tears!) into my fan creations. To have them recognized in this capacity is overwhelming. Thank you. :')

And lastly, but definitely not leastly, another huge “thanks!!!” to thedriveintheatre for his assistance with the awards, and a shout-out to my fellow moderators and PixarPlanet staff. Y’all are amazing, I couldn’t be “working” with a more tightly-knit, well-oiled team. :slight_smile:

Thanks once more, and another hearty “congrats” to all of our winners!

little chef

Oh wow! That’s really cool, and would be amazing if you both worked there!

Woah. I won funniest member? I always hope for that one! :smiley: Congratulations to everyone, my co winner TDIT, and thank you all! I always try to be funny. I guess it worked. :stuck_out_tongue: But, I relly appreciate it. :slight_smile:

So flattered to get a nomination for Best New Member, but OWP was definitely the right winner. Congratulations to everyone. This is truly a special forum, and these awards remind us of the important contributions that we can make to the site, not just as winners, but as every single user on this site. Thank you, and to myself, better luck next year!

Wait…I actually won?! :open_mouth:
Thanks!
And congrats to everyone else! :slight_smile:

Haha that was my reaction.

Gongratulations too all the amazing and wonderful and talented winners!!

And to all those who are upset as they didn’t win anything, who knows… you may have been not far behind the winners! oh and theres always next year! :slight_smile:

Once again, congratulations everyone!
