FORUM COMP

by **HowlingStar** Thu Aug 22, 2013 1:41 am

I'm creating a forum competition! Ya'll see the forum's giant banner? (The one with the cats touching noses) I think we're in need of a change! I am holding a competition for users to create a new forum banner for this site! You can create it however you like - using whatever image and wording you wish, but.. It must be related to wolf and/or cat RP. Submit your banner here via link or image (preferably link - banner images can be rather large and mess up the format of the forum) and when all users have submitted their work, we will hold a vote. There may also be a staff discussion (Moderators and Admins).

Rules

There is no exact time limit for submission of banners. However, I would prefer all submissions were done within the time frame of a week. (The sooner all banners are submitted, the sooner we can have a new forum banner)

No copying other banners from other websites/forums - No taking ones off google or photobucket and claiming them as your own work. This is considered cheating and could result in a warning.

Do not judge other users banners - be respectful. They took time to create this, you should be respectful. (I can't really imagine anyone being rude, but, I had to add this Razz

)

When the vote begins, there will be no vote manipulation - this means, do not ask for votes and do not vote for yourself on multiple accounts. It is very easy to tell who has cheated and who hasn't. So, do be careful.

Okay, enough drama and blahblah! GO CREATE US A BANNER!! :3
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!

Sounds pretty awesome. Smile

Any Image you wish... Very Happy

? Alright then, is there a specific size that the banner needs to be?? It might be harder if the new banner is too big or small Razz

Okay - I've created a banner! I will resize it to make it larger and more 'banner like' in size if I actually DO win the competition. xD But the following is my entry, just a smaller version so it doesn't stretch the forum. The larger size would be around the size of the banner that is currently being used by this forum, maybe a bit bigger.

I also created a banner! c: But it's more 'vertical' though. Not horizontal. x3 I could try and make it more horizontal, but it might make the wolf and cat....fatter. xDD I'm not sure. If vertical won't work, then, I'll make a new one. Smile

I love this picture, which is why I used this one. c:
I fooled around with the word colours a lot, so, I tried the colors a lot and these colors fit the best. For the last one, 'Let Your Journey Begin', I tried dark colors to let it see better but it doesn't look better, and lighter colors works better. Sorry if the last sentence isn't very clear.

Just saying, but, if the vertical one works and we can do two banners, don't use my back-up one. o.o

Oh...of course my tablet is missing.
Is a week from now okay? I won't be able to start anything until Sunday at the earliest.

by **HowlingStar** Thu Aug 22, 2013 10:07 pm

The competition will end this time next week. Smile

Great banners, everyone! I'm really loving them.
The winner and those who place may receive a small award - I'm thinking extra points for the point store which is coming soon. Smile

by **ChipmunkStar** Thu Aug 22, 2013 10:13 pm

Howl, can vertical banners work?

by **HowlingStar** Thu Aug 22, 2013 11:12 pm

I answered your question. Razz

by **ChipmunkStar** Fri Aug 23, 2013 12:29 am

Yeah.

by **HowlingStar** Fri Aug 23, 2013 12:47 am

Any questions regarding this competition can be PMed to me or posted to me in the chatbox if I'm online :3 Looking forward to see if any more come through haha.

by **Alue** Fri Aug 23, 2013 1:29 am

Can we enter two? If not, then Jason, help me pick which one is better. O_____O

First one or this one? - [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Other people can butt it and tell me which ine to enter too, if they want. xDD

by **ChipmunkStar** Fri Aug 23, 2013 2:22 am

xD Agreed! I also want to ask it. Very Happy

Ohhh, they're both so good Ruelle. xD Okay, okay, I give in. Ya'll can enter two. MAX. O_O

by **MiseryCloud** Sat Aug 24, 2013 3:18 am

I might make one. Smile

by **Alue** Sat Aug 24, 2013 3:23 am

Oooh. Yay - Okay. For the vote you could put the images in the poll so that people just vote for the image they like, instead of voting for a person. I think that would be easier. xDD

Would limit favoritism as well. Smile

x3 It's not very good, I know. It was just a random idea that popped into my mind.

When is the vote starting? (:

by **Pigeon** Mon Aug 26, 2013 5:31 pm

Someone's used Aiyana's profile picture as their banner?

& Waya entered three? I thought the max was 2.

by **Magpie** Mon Aug 26, 2013 8:47 pm

No taking ones off google or photobucket and claiming them as your own work. This is considered cheating and could result in a warning.

Does this include photo manipulation/editing?

by **Alphess Aiyana** Mon Aug 26, 2013 10:18 pm

Nope. He means taking a banner which has already been made by someone else and downloading it from google or photobucket then passing it off as their own. (This image I just found on google by typing in 'warrior cats' - I didn't make it because I just googled it. But, if I entered this link and said, "Done, here's my banner! I made it all by myself!" - That is against the rules. But, if I take this image and alter the colours, add text, etc, then, it's fine. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
I hope that wasn't confusing. xD

Waya - You have entered three Banners. Why do you have a back up image? If it is because the first one is vertical then you cannot have a completely different banner as your 'back up' banner. The max amount of banners you can enter is 2. If you want to include a back up banner of your vertical banner, then it needs to be the exact same banner just flipped so that it is horizontal and not vertical.

Naw, they do look similar, but, I think they're different images. Smile

by **ChipmunkStar** Mon Aug 26, 2013 10:54 pm

Sorry, I asked already and thought it was ok. Ill switch it when I'm on the comp.

by **HowlingStar** Tue Aug 27, 2013 10:17 pm

I'm sorry if I was not clear, but, I assumed when you said "back up" you meant it was the same one but altered so that it was horizontal, hence why I agreed. Razz
