Judge & Evaluator
The winner of this SVG challenge is O3-mini low (2025-01-31) Player 2

Judge's Analysis

    Player 2's submission is more creative and adheres better to the prompt.

    The roots are visually distinct and loop in the air as specified, adding an element of dynamic motion.

    Additionally, the technical quality and composition are stronger, with a clean, minimalist design and effective use of space.

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.

How does judging work?

SVG drawings are converted to static PNG images for evaluation. The AI judge receives the original prompt and both images, then determines which drawing better fulfills the evaluation criteria without seeing animations, interactivity, or SVG code.
