Here, here. Diurnal and Takimata are exceptional designs and really deserve recognition. Oh, and also Walk in the Shadows. That has a couple secrets worth learning. :)

Thanks for your kind words about my theme, Takimata. There were some really interesting designs. I'm looking forward to digging in to some of them and seeing what I can learn. I'd overlooked Picnic. Thanks.

you saved my day when you gave me a hint on how to implement the date stamp. I was about to ditch it from the design.

@Robert- absolutely. i'm a little snowblind at the moment, but there are a lot of great ideas in there i need to look into. @Arpit- happy to help! I'm glad to see someone run with the idea. Congratulations on the win!

@ Adam
I think you did a great job on both your theme’s graphics, my wife (an artist) loves it.

Takimata and Promised Land were exceptional. Great job with Promised Land, Adam.
I think I may be incorporating a menu-concept similar to Promised Land's on my blog's single post pages — one day (I think my wife will leave me if I redesign more than once a year!).

I'm sure I'll manage to use them all, although I'm rather fond of "Promised Land" right now. I'm going to head over to the sandbox site and see what it there again.
The wordpress thing ticks me off a little. I, for the first time ever on my own, upgraded my wordpress installation just a week or two ago, and my heart stopped several times. To think I have to do it again on a day I thought I had lucked out of work due to air/heat index issues annoys me.
I don't understand why one can't just change the specific files instead of doing the whole thing.

thanks, guys :) this plugin is supposed to make updating a little less painful, but i haven't tried it.
mark jaquith used to do a changed files package for 2.0.x, but he seems to have stopped (not surprising, it was pretty substantial work without any official acknowledgement).
