The selection of the wallpapers for the judge's choice would be based on the following criteria:
Firefox/Thunderbird category
OpenOffice.org category
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OOoArt--OOo_logo_license
http://www.openoffice.org/about_us/summary.html
In short, use the name 'OpenOffice.org' and not 'OpenOffice' or 'Open Office'; and do not try to modify the logo so much that no-one can recognise it.
* This should not discourage you from submitting higher resolution wallpapers. Wallpaper resolution will be taken into account when considering download size. (i.e. whether you submit 800x600 wallpaper or 1600x1200 version of that wallpaper, it does not affect the judgement).
Firefox/Thunderbird category
- 40% Creativity/Novelty - it's important that it doesn't look like every other wallpaper and that it shows some thought in the design.
- 30% Production Quality - it's important that the artwork is well produced with high-quality tools, etc.
- 20% Adherence to the visual identity guidelines.
- 10% Download Size* - balancing size and intricacy of design is often challenging and is a sign of care in development.

Nice work by all of you. I cant wait to see who'll be the winner!
The results will be announced as soon as judges make their decision :)
Update: Sorry for not updating the site for some time...I've got the results for Firefox/Thunderbird category but am still waiting for results for OpenSourcePal.org category. I promise I'll declare the results for both the categories as soon as I hear the OpenOffice.org results from OpenOffice.org Judges 
.
