    Not the name, the forum. I won't even look at it anymore. Out of sight, out of mind.

    EDIT: ...especially with this cotton candy banner.

    BUMP. Guys, we're coming up on less than 3 weeks until the theatrical launch of The Clone Wars!

    The original banners had our old "SSSW Forum".

    If anyone would like to use the (increasing volume of) material out there to give us some banners for The Clone Wars film, that would be much appreciated!

    Their lasting title should be as in the current banner "Live Action, Clone Wars & Classics" (LACWAC!!), but perhaps for the theatrical release (and a short time after), they can be titled "The Clone Wars". I'll double-check with Quest on that.


    GET TO WORK!!!

    I wish I knew how to make banners, or do anything remotely talented with a computer besides Quark Xpress. So someone who can do it, please make us a nice banner.

    Rep the LACWAC.

    I'll see what I can do tonight. I've never made a banner.....so I might be posting a few questions to those veterans who have done so before.

    Well, it's been a while since I've made a banner. I may give this one a try.

    I referred to the last page, but I still don't understand a couple of things. I'm not sure if this is the right thread for it, but I'll put it here anyway. Why have two images of 756 x 110 instead of one large 1512 x 110, especially if they're supposed to be continuous? For example, take a look at the one for this forum right now. It seems that the first image is the Clones fighting and the second is just the clouds/storm. Why not make this one image? Wouldn't it be easier to blend everything together?

    Also, to submit the actual banner, should it be submitted as a single .JPEG or should we submit all of the different images?

    Thanks in advance!

    It's the way the boards load banner images. Not sure the exact reason behind it (but I imagine it has to do with judging what will appear on lower resolution settings vs higher resolution settings, or at least accomdating larger resolutions after the fact).

    I'd suggest submitting a "whole image" for us to look at at. If we like it, we'll ask for the individual components (but if you want to do both all at once feel free).

    Well, I have the full top of a banner complete. I am starting work on the side now. So, expect the banner within the next couple of days. ;)

    I'm looking forward to seeing it. I've been working on mine a bit here and there when I can, so HOPEFULLY I'd like to have something to show to the MODS within a week.

    Yeah, my photoshop skills suck really bad, so it's not turning out to well. Perhaps you and I can collaborate.

    Is there someone way you can sneak Obi-Wan a little closer to the others? He seems a little out of place. But as I mentioned before, it's great, and definitely great for your first attempt!

    Wow thats great, especially seeing as it's your first attempt.

    One suggestion would be instead of Ventress parallel to Kit Fisto, I'd put Plo Koon. Just because it's the same picture but either way it looks great!

    Thanks for the kind comments!

    That gap did look a bit odd so I put Yoda in there. I think it looks better overall; more full.

    I also switched out Assajj for Plo Kloon!:D
