Remember, VRML.SGI.COM is giving away a Maximum DVD Kit or a 
Fire GL 1000 graphics accelerator from Diamond Multimedia to the 
sweepstakes winner (all you have to do is vote for your favorite
worlds) and an SGI O2 Workstation to the overall Editor's Choice

Anyway, the Week 8 winners are:

Editor's Choice:  
"Frosty Run Amuck" from Michael Siebielec and Markus Roskothen
A hilarious and twisted look at everyone's favorite snowman.
 
People's Choice:
"Coral Reef" from Victor J. DeLeon
Victor picks up a 3-peat in this category for his third look 
at Florida's undersea worlds.

The Week 9 contestants are:
   * Compounds Machine -- an educational and interactive look 
     at various ways of joining polyhedra in one compound.
   * Virtual Head II -- the sequel to the original Virtual Head--
     this one's made completely of moving dots.
   * Sliding Game -- rearrange the blocks of this sliding puzzle to 
     create an image.
   * DesignSpace Gallery -- an entry point to 3 CAD part worlds 
     that visualize how parts withstand load.
