Graphics Contest - BM2 Banner ENDS THE 10TH

by BLueSS » Sun Jul 27, 2008 10:15 pm

Whew, it's been a while since we've had a graphics contest.

Here's how this will work. Anyone can submit up to 2 graphics that will be used to make the site's banner, as well as the tournament's mix banner.

Post Entries in this thread, by Sunday the 10th!

At that time, there will be a poll created with all the entries, and it will be open for a week.

The banner with the most votes wins.

*The winning file must be in a high-resolution, original format (such as PSD or similar file. I must be able to edit it to fit the site banner/mix banner. (unless you decide to do both for me - makes my job easier!)*

DIMENSIONS:
1) 512px × 160px = Tournament Banner

2) 791px × 100px = the (oddly shaped) Forum Banner (please upload a smaller preview version)

These are shrunken down versions of the original just to make sure I don't screw with the site again. Top is banner, bottom is for the site if you couldn't tell.

I'm curious... nobody has included the "-" in the name "BEST-mix".

What's up with that? :lol:

Hahah I haven't realized that either!

My guess is that it's harder to come up with a good design for text when you have your words divided by a simple, plain-looking "-". At least it is for me >_>.
