Banner Competition!

[Taake]

I'm sure most of you have seen Caitaintdead's brilliant Banner Experiment thread... well here comes the competition...

All of those willing to participate will make a standard sized banner (500x150) portraying a chosen scene/episode from one of the shows, which the members will later vote on. 😀

All contributions will be sent to me as I will later present them all in this thread.

Rules:
*size: 500x150
*art: will be presented to m with sources listed. I.e. where pictures, stock etc comes from.
*thread: All feedback in the thread will be kept constructive and friendly
*voting: Members will send their votes to me with a short explanation of why the chosen banner gets their vote.​

Once I've collected all contributions I will later present the winner and his/her winnings...



Now... the elected episode you will create around is:

*drum roll*

....

.....

BtVS: Doppelgangland

All banner's should be sent to me by Sunday September 5th (date may get pushed up to a later time)​

Now everyone, have fun and I'll look forwards to seeing your creations! :biggrin3:

So, do the pictures/images/quotes we use have to come directly from the episode or does the banner just have to have the episode's theme?

Personally I would have liked it to be an even narrower selection. Like a specific scene or something.
Think it could've been interesting to see how different people choose to use pretty much the same images. With a whole episode to choose from it can be so many different themes.

That doesn't mean that this won't be fun and interesting also. So let us do this one now. 🙂
Well, I'll give it a try anyway...

Do we post our banners here?
And can we enter more than one?

 

[This Year's Girl]

Yay, great competition! I won't be competing, I've never used photoshop and are not very artistic, but I can't wait to see what all you talented people come up with for such a great episode!

 

[Taake]

Do we post our banners here?
And can we enter more than one?

You can enter one and you do not post them here, you send them to me in a PM and I will present them all in this thread at the same date 😀

The images should come from the episode.

 

[Chosen Enemy]

Oh, cool! I'm in serious need for contests lately. Just love 'em, so I'm gonna try to create something for this one. And don't be shy to open more contests on this board!

 

[Tranquillity]

When does it have to be submitted by?

 

[Taake]

When does it have to be submitted by?

Indeed September 5th, when the board is back and re-vamped 😀

(though in case that takes longer than expected the date will of course be pushed up)

 

[Taake]

Don't forget guys, Sunday the latest your banners need to be sent to me. 🙂


______________

Marisa agrees: Do you want us to resubmit since the boards have been down for a while?

Not necessary I have it all saved 🙂

Great work everyone! I love these! I can't believe that I completely forgot to enter and it was my idea 🙁

/me throws a Dawn-tantrum

You have to have a round two so I can make one next time!

My favourites - Not Afraid, Who Do You Work For, and Is It Dangerous.

 

[Taake]

Just to clarify, votes are sent to me in a PM by next week I'll present the winner, but constructive criticism or general opinions are allowed in the thread 🙂

 

[Big Damn Hero]

I think I know who one of them is by 🙂

I shall be having a propper look and voting later on :]

 

[BuffyElevated]

WOW, all these are so great!! 😀 It was really hard to pick one to vote for!

 

[PrincessBuffy16]

Really, really great work guys, but I fell in love with the one of them from the first time I saw it.

 

[sk]

I'm sitting here trying to figure out who made each banner... lol

Will also try to decide something and send a pm soon.

[xaphania]

What with the boards closing I completely forgot to enter this competition! I hope there'll be another round so I can submit something.

All the banners are great, but one of them stands out for me.

 

[Harley]

I'm suprised they're all different. I figured with that many people entering that at least a few would be similar. But alas, awesomeness. 🙂

That's the beauty of a competition like this... Everyone has their own different muse and interpretation of the episode. 😀
