    Sorry, sorry. These enforced rules are hard to get used to in Games. Every thread used to be a social thread.


    Yup... I say we revolt.

    It'd be just you and Dan, prolly, and Dan doesn't even come here a whole lot anymore. :p

    Mark (TFn Games staff) writes;


    First judging on 31st of July it is. The new banner will be uploaded for the 1st of August (next wednesday). Make sure to pass that on to anyone who is working on a banner, but also tell them that even after that date, banners can be sent in for inclusion for the september upload, etc. The start of every month, in other words, so they don't have to push for August if time is a problem.[hr][/blockquote]

    Let's have all entries in to me by 30 July to give Carter & Lord Mauly Mall time to pick the first banner and a suitable matching color scheme.

    If you miss this one, there's always the possibility that you'll make the September upload. :D

    I'm also hoping that any banners that miss being put into the "to be uploaded in the future" pile will have constructive critism / hints and tips given out (via PM from me, I guess) by LMM & Carter as to why they didn't make the grade, so you can rework them for resubmission and / or avoid the same pitfalls on subsequent entries.

    You can upload it here, or PM me and I'll give you an email address to send it to. :D

    Make sure you include all the "bits" and a mockup of how it would look on at least a 1024x768 screen.

    You mean the side that likes women? :p

    Btw I was kidding about using DOA pics for the new banner. I've raised the issue about the content of the banner if Games is moved to Community but so far it looks like the graphics will still be SW related games.

    Nice final choice. I like the haze.

    One minor gripe: maybe try and fade the bottom of Vader into the area below him more. His solid color just cuts off.

    Otherwise, I like.

    It's time for the Winter face-lift. :D

    Like last time we're opening the contest up to anyone and everyone to submit their designs for banner and side graphics for both the forum here, and possibly for TFN Games if they wish to use it.

    Once we've gotten submissions, we'll consider them all and choose one to go up on both. We'll tak entries up until the end of the November, for uploading durind Dec, Jan, Feb.

    So here are the specs:


    [ul][li]Main banner image (foreground) - 764 x 110[/li]
    [li]Main Background image - 764 x 110 [/li]
    [li]Curve image - 69 x 67 [/li]
    [li]Side Bar image - 32 x 465[/li][/ul]
    [image=http://www1.theforce.net/JC/images/Spring_2002/banner.jpg]

    Sidebar

    [image=http://www1.theforce.net/JC/images/Spring_2002/background.jpg]
    Background
    [hr]

    For the Main Banner Image (foreground), what we'll require is 3 copies. One that just has the images, a second that has the label TheForce.Net Jedi Council Games and a third with TheForce.Net Games. It's totally up to you how you wish for these labels to be presented.

    There is no limit on how many you can submit, and there are no limitations on the image content (keeping it all family friendly and within TFN policies of course). But since it's for the Games pages, obviously we would love to see ones full of Star Wars Games imagery.

    So, get cracking and let's see what you can all do. :)

    You can post your submissions in this thread, PM them to me or contact me via PM if you wish to email them in. The best way to present your idea is to take a JC Screenshot and paste your banner into the image to make a page mockup, like [link=http://members.cox.net/screenies/dangames.jpg]Dan has done here[/link].

    The winner will get VIPship (red colours), a title, and access to the "Winner Is Me" icon (if they wish to use it) for the 3 months that the banner is up.

    FWIW, like last time, there's not a public vote as such, and Carter will get the final call.

    This is a democracy, not a dictatorship.


    Ban Carter.
