Something like a polaroid, so that part of his head missing won't be weird?

Mine isn't the best but at least not a copycat or anything like it. Most likely because I used a fresh image instead of 3 years old pictures.

Like I said, using the same stock for banners (or sigs for that matter) is pretty common, especially so for themed contests like this, and even more so if you're choosing pictures from a particular show. Besides, I don't see why using the same image would constitute as being a copycat.

The Guilty Crown one looks like it's for Valentine's rather then Christmas. ^.^

I kind of don't find user signatures on BBT to have the same image used.
And you aren't very creative in searching if you can't find any more images that fit the winter/holiday theme. Although that requires devotion and concentration, which of course most kids don't have.

That may be the case, but BBT isn't the only forum on the internet. Sure, there's a lot of anime-related winter/holiday pictures, but it might not be so for a specific series. And I may be making a banner for the site, but I am still the one making it after all, so naturally I would pick a series I like to create a banner for, and on that point, I would also pick a picture that I like or find suitable. Of course, if I had known about the previous entries and that it would be somewhat of a wasted effort I would've picked others.

What's stopping you from checking the last year and previous years entries ?
Seriously, I only browsed for an hour and found dozens of new images from Lucky Star and Toradora, it's not like people make those images because the anime is this year and the next year no one does anything because it doesn't air anymore or something, fans make stuff all the time, you just have to look. Lot of great fanart on the internet.
