    A Legendary winner with an Emotional runner-up.

    And now we announce the grand prize winner for our Legendary Photo Mission Tuesday. The votes were counted and then thrown in the fireplace because this contest was completely subjective based on my own personal tastes, ha! Remember, our theme for this mission was "FLAG CAPTURED!" and we had some spiffy pictures come in all vying for the prize. With no further ado, here is your winner!

    Congratulations to Chris Policastro! You win! Shredder has never looked more...uh...flag capturey. Chris will be receiving the awesomely huge Halo 3 Legendary Edition for Xbox 360. And to continue onward with prize giving, here we have the runner-up picture!

    Huzzah for Danton Domike, also known as Classybot. You will be receiving a special code for a free download of Geon: Emotions from the Xbox Live Arcade. But the fun doesn't end here. We've got a few more pictures for everyone to see after the jump. Check out the pictures that just barely got edged out for winning stuff!

    Are you bummed you didn't win? Is your cash burning a hole in your pocket? You can buy your very own Halo 3 Legendary Edition from our store!

    creditflag.jpgMack Rieder-Johnson sent us this picture, which almost gave us the ability to steal his identity and buy an entire warehouse full of pink leotards. Curse you, blur tool!

    treasureflag.jpgAnd Jason McIntosh shows us how his flag is into a little bondage now and then.

    Thanks again to everyone for submitting pictures. Oh, and our theme for next week is:

    That's way too big!

    Please remember the guidelines for submission:

    1. The photo must be a photo. Just take a picture with some sort of camera. It can be a digital camera, a scanned-in Polaroid, whatever. You can Photoshop it a bit if you want, but it has to start with the picture you took as the base, and try to keep the 'shoppery to a minimum.
    2. Make the photo fit the theme of the mission whether to the letter or to the spirit. Just make it work somehow. Be creative.
    3. Nothing that's not safe for work. That is, no nudity, shock images, whatever. I really shouldn't have to explain it to you.

    Send your entries for next week's Mission to thegeek@weeklygeekshow.com to win the adoration of the entire Internet. It may not be as good as the Halo 3 Legendary Edition, but it's close.
