The 2005 Rose Award graphics were designed by myself, using Paint Shop Pro, version 8.10, along with various filters including an Eye Candy Bevel Boss effect, and with a PSP tube (long-stemmed rosebud) from Kandyz PSP Tubes (now closed) -- Dimensions are 165(h) x 115(w), and graphics are between 7.7 and 7.9 KB.

Since the Rose Awards program inception in August, 2002, I have used the simple black/red gradient as my background, with the small long-stemmed rosebud as the central focus of the graphic, and with a small beam of light to illuminate the graphic .... My aim is to create an image which could be termed as "simple but elegant", much like the Rose -- an award graphic which will invoke in the viewer a sense of beauty, class, and gentle elegance !
