Full Version: Banner Contest
Space Yoshi X
Neo Star Network official site

I'm finished with the main site's layout for now. It's a bit ugly and I plan to beutify it a bit. I'm sorta new at layouts, so you'll have to excuse me. I promise improvement though.

ANYWHO, the current banner is a placeholder. I love it, but I'm sure its not very proffesional so I was hoping we could start a banner contest.

rulez:
-approx 790x114, can be more or less by any amount.
-have colors match the site.
-put whatever renders you want on it
-make it say "Neo Star Network"

Winner gets some points. I'll let Yoshio decide on how many.

Also, Star image:

EDIT:

The sizes for the Degeneration and Fernifus banners should be about, 1085 x 68.
For Complex Desire and Luminescence, the size should be, 992 x 68.

Make em' long and thin... *doesn't sound right*

Example? =P

announce the site first, then announce the contest

EDIT: just noticed the link, go ahead and move this to announcements
Space Yoshi X
Done, as well as added banner rulez.
Zulen
I can redo the words if you like. I've done the old SSF banner, and TUV's current banner in case you need reference.

Or if you've got something in mind, then shoot. It's not like Neostar Forums has a theme or anything it seems like.
The Silver Shadow
Ohh, another banner contest. Can someone tell me why the name changed?

Errrm.

This forum never hosted TLOTSS. The previous did, yes...
The Silver Shadow
So why were we called the shadow star forums? Man, this is confusing.

In previous versions, it DID host LOTSS. After then, when Sypher accepted VGL to host LOTSS, Sypher was still admin here, and said it was O.K. to keep the name.

... Or something.

I'm sure changing the text from Shadow to Neo would suffice.

Depends on what MW and Yoshio think. I just put it on the site is all.
Yoshio

If your gonna change the name, change the star to a Neo star, or at least change the color that doesnt make it look like a shadow star
MastaWario
That's fine. It isn't the same as the one in Sypher's series.

Besides, we may keep Lucas's and Autumn's banners on other skins. They're too good to go to waste.
Yoshio
provided they change the text
MastaWario
Hopefully they kept the photoshop files on their computer. If not, it's not possible to change the text.

We could leave them as banners on alt. skins regardless.
Peter_Lucas
I always save my PSD files.

I'll just have to find it.

I'll leave the banner to Peter. I'm not confident in my Clone skills in Photoshop, and he said he saves the .psd.

I can make a kick ass desuland banner, though. Later tonight, maybe.

Anyway, I was going to make a wide banner with a bunch of anime characters, but since you're so easily impressed by a bunch of hot anime chicks, I'll just take the two strip colors and whip one up.

I got 1 banner in stock.

Here's my banner;

user posted image

Well, since we ain't the Shadow Star Forums no more, I just took a random star sprite and made it look angry with red eyes, giving it a Neo kind of look. Mario is in his Flying form from Super Mario Galaxy (looks kinda badass), and since the star is evil but stronger, I added black/dark blue flames on Mario's hands. Enjoy.
Jeffhog the Sonic guru
If you guys want me to do a bit of work on the banner, let me know. Of course, I'm reffering to the judges.

Though I wonder if Lucas ever found the SSF banner PSD file, so he could change the text on his.

Awesome, yo.

I'll replace the default one now, and I guess the blue should replace the one on the Aqua skin.
Yoshio
so when does this thing end?
Peter_Lucas
Never lol..*whistles*
SlashGFX
When hell freezes over.

I'm guessing when ever SYX calls it over.
MastaWario
Luminescence, Complex Desire, Fernifus, and Degeneration are four alt. skins that are banner-less b/c none of the banners will fit on them.

So, if you want a banner on one of those, you'll have to slim it down some, how much--I'm not sure...
Peter_Lucas
I'm checking..
Space Yoshi X
Its over whenever the admins are satisfied with the current banners.

As for the site, I think its good, but when is Zulen going to make that Desu Land banner?
Peter_Lucas
The sizes for the Luminescence, Degeneration, and Fernifus banners should be about, 1085 x 68.
For Complex Desire the size should be, 992 x 68.

Make em' long and thin... *doesn't sound right*

Example? =P

Quoted for truth.
MastaWario
I added it to Complex Desire and Degeneration, though it fits better on Complex Desire (a bit of space left on the Degeneration skin)
MastaWario
Err....Nvm...It fits better on Degeneration, though it's a bit short. lol

It's stretching out Complex Desire a bit much.
Peter_Lucas
Lol Degeneration is abit longer then i thought it was gonna be.

1215x 68.

It seems the image shrunk a bit? O.o Your uploaded size says 1021x64.
Photobucket resized it. If you click on "max image size" above the upload browser. You can change it too "1 meg file size" and it won't resize the image.
MastaWario
Ahh! That fixed it. I reuploaded it to photobucket.

I guess that's the official Degeneration banner now.
SlashGFX
I just viewed it and it matches pretty nice. Its width is pretty long.
Yoshio
Degeneration is the skin I used

and that banner is by far my favorite one

you made me very happy
MastaWario
Note: That banner won't fit on the Luminescence skin--needs about the size of Complex Desire
Peter_Lucas
Guess I was off a bit =o.
Space Yoshi X
Epic is happening.

We still need a Desu Land banner if you're interested. Check the first post for size.
