We've been running a geeky pumpkin template carving for the past two weeks, and we're reaching a critical mass of excellent submissions.
Not only do we intend to carve our pumpkins with our favorites, but we're hoping you'll find one or two you'd like to try out. If you're puzzled by any of the thumbnails below, hovering over the image might help explain, xkcd-style. And our favorites from last year are still available, too.
If you've got a great idea for a template, there's still time to enter: you have until midnight ET on Tuesday 10/26 to pitch your idea into the ring, and here's the submission form. We'll announce our winners on 10/29 after we've had a chance to carve our pumpkins.
UPDATE 10/27: Submissions have closed and we're looking forward to disemboweling our pumpkins tomorrow!
