The winning of an award is one of two criterias. If you haven't won anything, and have been making AMVs for over a year your no longer a newbie. It again, really comes down to what you believe you are.
You can see your videos not winning as not being understood by the audience. But they could also be viewed as you not having the skill or experience to make your meaning understood.

When should a newbie no longer be called a newbie?

IMHO....
I've made 2 vids..numerous post..and I still consider myself a noob. I always will. There's always something new coming along, wether it be new programs or the like..or a new techniqe (sp?) that another creator has done or comeup with that I want to learn how to do...new anime I've not seen yet..ect. As long as I'm always learning..I'll be a noob. Granted, there might be some things that I know how to do, and can help others with..but that by no means makes me a pro.
Wether you're a pro or a noob shouldn't even be a worry factor in most things. All it is, is like what MCWagner said..it just gives other people a reference point in knowing what level of help a person might need on a given subject.
