Well, you all asked for it, so here it is... Welcome to the first Fan Art contest in almost a year!
Due to the fact that I know many of you are busy and/or participating in NaNoWriMo this month, this contest is going to be kept fairly simple. For those of you who are interested in something more challenging, don't worry, your chance is coming.
Our theme for this contest is Gratefulness. Thanksgiving is coming in four weeks, and we all know that the day is about more than just gorging ourselves with delicious food; it is a time to be grateful and give thanks for everything we have been given. So the challenge for this contest is to make an avatar which expresses the theme of gratefulness. This theme is interpretive, so feel free to be creative and use your imagination, but your entry must portray gratefulness or thanks in some way.
Rule #1: All avatars must be sized 100x100 pixels. No larger, no smaller.
Rule #2: You may only submit one (1) avatar.
Rule #3: Your avatar must be Narnia themed.
Rule #4: No comments will be allowed in this thread as we do not want our judges becoming biased by other people's opinions. Any comment found will be deleted. After the judges have announced the winners, this thread will be opened for user comments.
Rule #4.5: To go along with the previous rule, no questions will be allowed in this thread. If you have a question, or if something in the rules is not clear to you, feel free to PM myself or one of the other Fan Art moderators.
Rule #5: All entries must be received by November 7th. Any entry not received by 11:59 P.M. on November 6th will be disqualified. No late entries will be accepted.
The judges for this competition will be Djaq, Ithilwen, and Narnia_Fan12. On November 7th, this thread will be locked so that no new entries may be received, and the judges will then deliberate for a maximum of one week before the thread is reopened and the winners are announced. There will be a first, second, and third place, as well as an honorable mention.
Have fun, and I look forward to seeing all the entries! Good luck!

P.S. I'm not sure if they wanted me to credit it or anything, so I just decided to say anyway that I used a texture by aqueous_sun_textures and a brush called SS-Sparkles.
Not sure this is any good, since it's been so long since I've done a Narnia graphic, but I love when there's a contest, and I think this one is the best Narnia graphic I've done in ages:
Thank you for another contest, guys!

EDIT:
The idea behind this one is that he is grateful to the one worthy enough to bow to. And that one who is worthy enough to bow to and be your Savior is the one who you should be forever grateful to. It's not supposed to be seen strictly in the context of that scene in LWW.
