So, many great headers! The themes are very nice--Challenge 4 is going to be a lot of fun no matter which one ends up winning. Below is a very long list with s snapshot of the entries with a description of the maker's idea.

Here it is--our last bonus round. For our veteran makers, you should probably know what to expect--that's right, it's header time! Our wonderful current header made by nyaza will be retired at the end of the challenge, so we'll need a new one to use for Challenge Four!

Let me know if I made any mistakes. And congrats again to our winners!

Sorry this took me so long to get up!  I have a checklist of about 16 things I need to do for this community (bad, lazy mod!), and so I'm marking them off starting with this post!

Congrats to our winners!
