Judge & Evaluator
The winner of this SVG challenge is O4-mini high (2025-04-16) Player 1

Judge's Analysis

    Player 1's image adheres more closely to the prompt by clearly depicting an umbrella balancing a teacup in the rain.

    The composition has a clear focus, with the umbrella and teacup prominently displayed, and the simplified style enhances visual appeal.

    Player 2's image, while creative, is less clear in its representation of an umbrella and lacks strong adherence to the prompt.

These metrics analyze technical aspects of both SVG drawings. Look for differences that might explain the judge's decision. Use the "View Code" button above to see the SVG code for each drawing.
