Ladybug

Pity how the light bounce off of the ladybug draws too much attention. Would have been much better without that glare...

The things girlfriends do....

Nice shot, different from others, yet interesting.
A couple of suggestions:
- you should have taken it in the middle of the tile, so that the grout line is not distracting.
- try taking such photos without using flash (or without having the light directly aimed at the highly reflective background such as the ceramic tile)
Having one of the feet not wearing anything is a good idea - breaks the monotony in a good way.
Good luck!

This is the one in your n&b series I like the best. You could try using a sheet of white paper below the bolt to get some light reflection there.
Keep the shutter clicking, I have the feeling that you will do good on this site.

You and I

Finally something appealing to the eye. And a good composition to add, good technicals (except for perhaps the female's right hand being slightly overblown).
Would have done excellent also as a jeans billboard. 9.

I'll Still Respect You Tomorrow...Honest!

Maybe a better title would have been: " But... I just want us to be friends..." LOL
If this one does not score within top 25, something is wrong.

Technically, papa bear's back is a bit overblown, in contrast to his right side. This is worth 7.

Do you take paypal? Oh, surreal, unreal...
OK, your pvc backdrop should've been hidden better, possibly by choosing a different light source. 8.

Snow Tanning

One more photo like this, and your model will catch pneumonia!
Nice composition, a stretch for the challenge though. Still, good technicals, good control of lights given bright day in the snow. Humorous as well, pleasure to look at. 6.

Dreaming Again

Very nice. Composition-wise, (to me) it would be better if you did not get the floor, and if you positioned your subject towards the middle, so that you have bills on both sides of the head. Lighting is very good here, I like the darker shade.

And oh, yes, Franklins would've left a better effect than GWs...

This is too dark for a billboard. Idea is good, and having the tomatoes more to the left (or right) to leave some negative space for the text, together with much brighter background would have been better IMO

Pet Rocks Are Here (Newspaper Coverage)

After learning what are the pet rocks, had to bump this up... too bad others may not have an idea what the heck those pet rocks were...
