I liked all of them (except for Mamath's Raindeer hat). The snow globe thingy would have been... interesting.
In the end, I like the idea of a frozen crown the best, but I have no idea how Anet will implement it.

wow Nian will be pleased....and I like the hat (#6) too, though not very guildwars-y.....
congrats to the winners !!! (and still wish they would show the honorable mentions' designs as well instead of just names, though maybe those HM's will put their entries up now that they have announced the winners <hint, hint>)
cant wait for my new hat!

So is that Nian from here?
Gratz ! Looks like we'll be wearing your headgear then, and damn fine it is too. Nice job.

The 5 one is a snow globe <.< I have a tone of those.
Basicly, its a litle glob full of water and litle plasti piece.
When you shake it around it, and set it on a table or flat surface, its snowing inside.

I think they all look pretty good.

I don's suppose someone could post pictures for those of us that have cranky network admins that block certain sites?

All very damn cool ideas. Congrats Nian, that Ice Crown is perfect.
Would have loved to see the snow globe slosh when I ran

I think they're all great; Sure #5 doesn't look like it had as much artistic effort put into it as the others, yet hell. I'd take a snowglobe over another pair of antlers any day. If they do indeed implement it, I wonder how it'll turn out?
Besides, it's an adorable concept.

#4, #2, #6, #1, #5, #3.
Is the order in which i'd rank these. I wonder which one(s) they'll use as they didn't always use the winners of design-a-weapon cometition, they sometimes used the finalists entries. At a first glance at #4 I was like "Master Chief omg!" but then it wasn't .

#2 was shmexy.
Vinraith
Huh, I had the same idea as number 1 (with the center open and sans fur lining), but can't draw for shit. Congrats to the winners, I'm looking forward to my frost crown.

I love the Ice Crown, but it will be pretty much pointless if it makes your hair dissapear. I'm also pretty confused, I thought we were only getting two hats this year, yet there are six winners, and the bit at the top only says we'll be getting the play made Grenth hat, which was number 4?
cosyfiep
maybe we get the other hat designed by the anet team and nian's is grenth's?
xReLx
5 is leet.

I love Nians (Grenth?) Hat and the snow globe, I have to say the snow globe is my favorite by far.

I like them all in different ways. Very creative. Good job to all winners. Beats my idea of a Candy Cane Head LOL.
So...are ALL these hats going to be available during Wintersday? Cause I don't know if I will have time to get them all OH NOES!!! Xmas is really busy time for me going to all the parents houses and relatives and friends.

*Note: The hat that appears in the game is based upon a player concept, but will not look precisely like the submitted idea. The art team sometimes makes adjustments to player art to assure the design is compatible with other game designs, and artists also often need to modify a design to properly adjust it to character models. For example, because of how character art and armor works together, a hat that sits on the top of the head will make the character appear to be bald, which naturally requires some amendment to work around. With all player-submitted designs, the art team chooses the winning designs and then adjusts them to fit into the Guild Wars world.
Bald... ...bald santa hats do not look good.
Well congrats I really love the frozen crown, though I have no idea how it is going to look without hair....

I think only the 1st place winner will get the Hat made. Dwyana will come from the internal I'm guessing.
Gaile said in another forum there will only be 2 hats this year.
But, yeah, losing the hair totally changes the winning illustration (which is very nice BTW).

Everyone is invited to see the grand debut of the two new Wintersday helms—including the player-designed* Grenth helm—at 12:01 AM Pacific time (-8 GMT) on January 1, 2008, and every three hours throughout the day.
To me that sounds like it's only the Grenth one we're getting.

Grats to Nian, very nice and we can only hope ANet does it justice for the IG version.

that would be weird that the Grand Prize Winner was not chosen tho....

Rexion
so the hat we will get from Grenth is the hat that was selected as grand prize??
that is a really cool hat, i'd love to have that
i hope it is dye-able... like the glowy hand armor/chaos axe.

Holy freakin crap.
So.....we get these hats right?
They're all so amazing and creative.
Snowglobe head ftw.
Edit: aww looks like were only getting one? oh well, at least it's a good one.
And were really only getting 2 helms this year? wonder why they stopped doing the 2 from kamadan.
And who wants to bet that our characters will look bald with the new hat.

We only get the 1st Place, I believe.
Mordakai
Cool hat, but probably too close to the Jester hat from last year? Just a guess.
Stolen Souls
All are very nice. If they indeed use one of these I'll be happy. Much better than the Halloween crap, imo.
Favorites are 1st and 3rd.

Grats to Nian, to the top 6 and the Honorable Mentions for there good designs.
