Contest is a great idea! Will have to pick one up tomorrow. Halloween has to be my favorite time of the year, christmas and all the rest can suck my balls.
I did a pirate ship and my gf did a bat. We used stencils since we both suck, but they came out really good for a first time thing. I'll post pictures later. EDIT: Here they are. Took the photo with my gf's mom's camera, so the quality is pretty low.
Just carved up a few pumpkins a few days ago. We used crappy stencils that worked out pretty well. I'm pretty proud of 'em! ~Will Courtier~
I really wish the goatse-a-lantern had a wedding ring on, just like real goatse. Will, is that supposed to say SOD? lol
I carved myself a towlie pumpkin, complete with bloodshot eyes. I even drilled a hole through the stem and made it into a bong. Unfortunately, it went from totally awesome to a smushy mold bucket in about 3 days. So I threw it in the street and it exploded into like 500 moldy pieces. Then the neighbor bitched, but who cares?
