Quick question, do or can we make a banner for a specific board, say SWC?

 

We're not guaranteeing that if you make it, it will be used. SWC mods could choose to use one of the board-wide themes, so to be safe, I'd make it for the whole forum.

 

Please design your banner for the entire boards, not SWC specifically. As Rhonda said, this is an open call and does not guarantee its upload. Many factors of quality play a part and we may use our default banners if need be. Lately we've been receiving excellent banners everytime we've been having open calls. I'm expecting great things this time around, too!

 

Nice update.




Er, HTML.

 

Pffft. Get to work.

 

Where's the banners?

I hope we get some good, original ones this year

 

I don't think anyone has submitted anything yet. I personally am working on one at the moment.

 

I've gotten some questions via PM from some banner makers, but we haven't received any as far as I know.

 

I may submit one (if it's done ) so where do we submit the final entry?

 

October the 13th otherwise known as Friday the 13th.

 

Post your final entry here or send it to Rhonda.

If I don't have at least five Halloween banners by the end of the contest I'm banning all active banner makers that didn't send one in.

 

If that happens, you'll have to make all the banners from now on!

 

//submitted.

 

That isn't much different than normal.

 

Oh dear gabe, I knew I should have PMed you after Halloween.

 

So are we going to see these?

 

No, apparently.

 

Here is Shinigstar's entry: Sith Council

We've got another one that's a surprise.


We still need banners! We're looking for something a little different than our old versions, although we may rotate those in too.

 

I think Shinigstar's is really good.

 

I'd make up a banner, but I'm terrible at making site banners. Something about all that space makes it hard for me.

Anyways, yeah, Shiningstar's is awesome.

 

That's a really good banner, nice work!

 

Shiningstar's banner is creepy and very Halloween-ish! That banner should be used!

 

Shiningstar's banner FTW! Excellent work!
