The NETELLER Be a Hero results are in
Posted by Today’s post was written by Kimber. She is a Marketing Program Manager and is passionate about building the NETELLER community.
When we first thought of asking our members to make submissions to become the next NETELLER Hero, I was a little worried what we would get. As the variety of banners came in, I’ve had lots of laughs, some eyebrow-raising moments and great conversations around the proverbial NETELLER water cooler.
Thanks to all the heroes
Thanks to everyone who rose to the challenge, told us their story and put themselves out there for the world to see. It was great to see the number of votes that the semi-finalists have gotten.
Our top 3
The 3 semi-finalists are Tapan, Iury and Søren. They were chosen for the high volume of votes they received from friends, family and others that visited the site. Now that we have our top 3, it’s up to the selection committee to decide who will be the next NETELLER Hero.
It will be a tough process, but the committee will rise to the occasion. This isn’t just a popularity contest – these semi-finalists are going to be judged on beauty, poise, personality and how creatively their submission adheres to the Be a Hero theme.
It’s not over yet
There’s been way too much fun to stop this contest now. That’s why we’re making it an ongoing promotion with a winner chosen 4 times per year. So keep those submissions coming in and keep voting for your favourites!
Check out our finalists page between Monday October 19, 2009 and Friday October 23, 2009 (the day the winner is revealed).
Who do you think is going to win?

You don’t even have to use the downloadable template or be a Photoshop expert to enter. Just find any pic of yourself that you like and submit it. You can even use a simple program like PowerPoint to put your entry together. Or you can get really fancy with it and download the template and design your submission.
Seriously though, if I can do it, you can too. Go browse the hero gallery for more inspiration.
And make sure you vote and solicit votes. My vote goes to Stan because it’s an image of him and his Probe. One of my first cars was a Probe. I’m still not sure what’s in his secret world but you should check out his submission for yourself.
Which hero did you vote for and why?
