First off I just want to say thank you to all of you who participated. It made this contest very fun and hopefully we will be able to continue doing more than just the standard "coloring contests" in the future

There really were a lot of great submissions!



Before I show the answers and announce the winners just want to break down how the winners were determined. It did stray a little from the original plan since we extended the time on the contest.
Obviously the first determining factor was the amount of correct guesses and then in case of a tie it was whom ever submitted first.

And now for the answers:

Clue/Icon #1- I took a visit to a strange place, hoping to find something new and exciting. What I left with was an utter disappointment, not even as good as a stupid t-shirt.



Clue/Icon #2-What is made here is not there, but maybe found somewhere on VN.



Clue/Icon #3-Don't like doing windows? Well then you better find one of these!
(Clue/Icon #3 part 2) I'm in your monitorz licking your screenz.



Clue/Icon #4-The golden night is in a state of sunshine. It's always a sporting time



Clue/Icon #5-You maybe seeking refuge from the elements when you choose to find me. However to pass through me you must read and speak in a foreign tongue, but do so with caution for I am guarded by one which lies beneath the night sky's reflection.



Clue/Icon #6-I'm super dark and full of teen angst. I'm normally found soaring like a bird in the clouds but I'm actually stuck hopping on the ground.




Clue/Icon #7-I can be found enjoying my heavy metal 24/7. I'm really quite the head banger, especially while devouring my mate.




Clue/Icon #8- I don't know Who he is, but she may be a Piper


And now for our brilliant slueths Gratz all you did an amazing job!!

Gate of Moria is from LOTR, it's that door Gandalf and friends escape into after the mountain path gets blocked, only opens to elven words and has a swamp creature near it.

Congrats!

I wouldn't have got a single one of them correct - believe it or not. I had seen only two of those icons before, the gromnie and Briton's icon.
