Make A Ng Banner Contest 2006-04-07 06:04:51


You may have read this thread and noticed the news post about it.

The idea was to design a NG 88x31 Affiliate Banner. There were a load of great entrys but they were all sze 88x31 (since that was the competition specs) However, i have noticed that a lot of people are looking for 468x60 banners and so this is a competition making them.

Hopefully Tom will take intrest and showcase your banners on the site.
Theres no deadline yet, it will be set soon enough when we have a few entries.

In short you basically have to design a 468x60 banner that people can link to newgrounds with. This contest will be run very similaly to the other one mentioned above. Hopefully we will see some good quality entries.

GO !

soory, could resisit the GO! :P

Yes, I hate my username as much as you do.

Did you e-mail a mod or one of the admins before making this topic? Because, in the affiliate topic, that's what the topic maker did....

Response to Make A Ng Banner Contest 2006-04-07 07:37:19


I'm almost finished with the banner I'm making, but I was just wondering if this was enough for the banner.

Due to silly technical difficulties it'll look bigger than it's supposed to look like, plus it'll lag a little.

WHOA! hold on a second here

i don't think you have thought this out well enough

did you e-mail Tom, or at least another admin or mod?

you need to post requirements
- file size (kb)
- formats (gif, swf etc.)

you need to say what you are basically looking for

take into account that SMC may have been planning this, did you get his permission?

some people need to know what you are talking about

i think this was a little hasty.

personally, i think you should have prepared this a bit better

deadlines needed to be set

*

either way, i will try and help out, perhaps i will use my previous site to host submissions.

really i think you messed this up a bit


I hardly ever come here anymore....

Yeah i realise i should have been a bit more informative... ah well... ill answer a few of your questions here anyway.

WHOA! hold on a second here

Holding


i don't think you have thought this out well enough

Yeah ive said above i realise that now


did you e-mail Tom, or at least another admin or mod?

its on my to do list... ill do it before tonight

you need to post requirements
- file size (kb)
- formats (gif, swf etc.)

file size is up to you (only try not to go to crazy) formats are .gif .jpg .png preffered but i suppose .swf could be allowed


you need to say what you are basically looking for

A banner to link to NG with, sizes 468x60


take into account that SMC may have been planning this, did you get his permission?

I dont need his permission to start a thread. If he makes a topic like this i will step down.


some people need to know what you are talking about

hopefully after reading this sort of faq they will


i think this was a little hasty.

thinking about it, your probably right

personally, i think you should have prepared this a bit better

agreed


deadlines needed to be set

a deadline for all submissions will be set soon, when we have a few submissions


*

either way, i will try and help out, perhaps i will use my previous site to host submissions.

much appreciated =) thanks


really i think you messed this up a bit

once again, i agree :P

Any more questions (anyone btw) feel free to ask

Thats the thing everyone seems to be missing....
These are image banners !
You can use photoshop flash fireworks or whatever.

bigexplosions, it needs some work but the background is truly awesome, you just need to fix it up a bit, make the text clearer, put the tank somewhere else

it's already close to being a clear winner

I think maybe you should remake this topic once you've sorted out all the details.
It's a bit of a mess currently. Put a bit more thought and structure into your first post, lay down some clearer rules and guidelines.

I also think that if you want to make this an 'official' contest, you should consult with Tom beforehand, rather than starting it and then expecting him to jump on board
