The Super Awesome Sweet Banner Contest

[Siegfried]

That was my original plan but how does it look so far?

Awful. I see zero floating mausoleums in the sky.

0/10

*sigh* I'm probably going to be hated but I feel I have a right to defend my work.

I stated that I was going to add it late and that it's a work in progress, that means it's not done yet, of course there's no floating mausoleums in the sky. I don't care if you were joking, I still found that very rude, you want people to make banners yet you make comments like that.

I'm not trying to start drama or anything, nor do I want any, but this is my standpoint.

[DTheAntihero]

Are we allowed to submit more than one entry? I think this one is a little better than my last.

[Ishido Shuuji]

Okay, I had a go but unfortunately my banner talents are nothing to shout about

But you may as well have a look anyway

POST IT NAO.

We hardly see any of your <small><del>awful</del></small> works. ...Or were there?

I'm kinda tempted to try, but I am very lazy. XD

[Geno]

POST IT!!

Why should I!? >U


Well, after staring at Photoshop for a good couple of hours, and the fact that I haven't done anything GFX stuff in months, I came up with this...

<div class='spoiler_toggle'>I'm warning you, it's awful...</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">

I didn't want to use that Yusei stock, but, it was the only that worked there. ._.</div>

and yeah... I was going to tell you that that Yuusei is getting used a lot now =P

[CyberWeapon]

Barney Dynasty is the alternative name if you don't like Neo Ark Craddle.

Excellent! :guurl:


Oh well, here is my contribution for a Barney Dynasty Banner, because my Photoshop skills are not good enough to work around with the Arc Cradle.

Click here for the absolute despair.

Awful? You're joking, this is awesome~

GLORIOUS. Seriously lovin' the extra set of teeth.

Stupid idea: We should totally use the Barney Dynasty ones on April Fools.

[ebrietas]

Geno, if you stay your stuff is horrible again, I shall slap you. :<

I love that; s'my favorite yet.

Because I order you to do, that's why! D<

<del>MY EYES!!! They burn!!!</del>

Nah, I think it turned out good. I love grungy stuff. And it's blue. <3

[Raku]

Jake, how did you do the logo on yours?

[Jake]

Jake, how did you do the logo on yours?

I took a screenshot of the Planetary Gear from one of the episodes of 5D's (I believe it was 139) and cut it out in Photoshop. After changing the blend mode of it over the background and duplicating the layer, I added on the text and--presto--I had the logo.

[ebrietas]

Haaaate.

[Pendora]

uhm... here is my try...

Spoiler

[ebrietas]

I really like how it looks like it has Momentum's colours. I tried doing that with an earlier one, and I ended up giving up. I couldn't pull it off. Kudos to you for being able to do it. (:

[Kyte]

Here's mine, though can't think of a good font to use so here's just the banner itself

[ebrietas]

Omfg, yes. It's so proper.

[Siegfried]

That is awesome!

[NeoArkadia]

I highly endorse Kyte's banner. No offense to anyone else here, but that is so appropriate and awesome. (I will not be deciding the banners. We're leaving that to the comm when we decide no more banners will be accepted.)

[Pangga]

Kyte, your banner idea is awesome. All it needs is the text, and maybe a mini Yusei and Z-ONE duking it out. Not sure about using the board as the background though.

Dangit, why am I'm still stuck for ideas? *miffed*

[NeoArkadia]

Not sure about using the board as the background though.

Using the board as the background is exactly why I love it.

And because art and literature is hard.

[Pangga]

Using the board as the background is exactly why I love it.

At first, I'd thought that having the board as a background would make it a bit weird after we start using custom skins.

But now... <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_idea.gif" alt="" title="Idea" /><!-- s --> Let's use the-board-at-the-forum-that-I-don't-feel-like-naming as the background. >D

*is shot for being a meanie*

[Ishido Shuuji]

Kyte, that is amazing. Quite clearly the best idea yet...I love it!

And using a certain other forum as the background would be very funny too.

[Kyte]

Was actually gonna use the other forum, but worried it'd feel mean-spirited or anything. Also, still cant decide on what sort of text since I hardly use text in graphics and not much ideas on fonts and all.

[a-hole]

Quite a few good ones here, buuuuuut......

I'll just leave this here.

.......these are my top picks.

Here's my contribution:

.........Hm, Jack's awesomeness can even fuse Red Nova with Barney........

'I KILL YOU
YOU FEAR ME
YOU WILL BURN FOR ETERNITYYYYYYYYYY.....'


I second the idea of using banners like this for April Fool's.

[Hisui]

I do like Kyte's best. ^^; Though I wish it had the forum name on it, probably in the middle of the Cradle itself.

[Kyte]

Here's with txt

[闇の女王ヤミ]

Ummm, my idea ^^ - I hope the naked blue alien is allowed in here...

Ummm, and this XD

[Ragna]

+1 for Kyte's w/text.

[Geno]

To start doing some finalizing here, any more entries must be submitted by September 20th .
That should be plenty of time for any last entries, if anyone still wants to submit.

Afterwards, we'll start on going on about how the winning banner will be selected. Most likely, it will be a public voting, but in case we do anything else, we'll let you guys know. ^^

[thetechkid]

First attempt at illustrator after a long break.
