I am not sure if it violates the rule of 'they own original image', but it surely slaps over many participants' faces whom really worked hard to make their own images.
It seems the result is controversial too because of the randomly awarded winners. Why don't just follow last contest? At least we know they were awarded due to creativity. Or you can just select some entries to make a public votes, then as least the award goes to popularity. Don't think 'random' is a good method to select winners in this kind of contest. Who will work hard in later contest if winners can be picked randomly?
Shini02, I am not sure if your mentioned Navy dress referred my entry as there are more than 1 navy dresses. If so, I am happy to know you love it and thanks!
