Banner Art Competition; Replace the old site banner

For all you arty-types out there, I'm pleased to announce a new competition. As announced in another thread, the boards will be temporarily closed on December 25th while I do a bit of cleaning...this will include a new banner for the site.

The current banner was "borrowed" from Kaydons kotorthemovie.com website and was supposed to be a temporary placement until I found a permanent banner.

Well that's where you guys come in. The prize is $1 Million....ok it's not, the prize is that the winner will have their work immortalised on the top of the forum for a minimum of 6 months (probably much longer).

Terms and Conditions

1. Members are limited to a maximum of 3 entries. Those posting more will be disqualified.

2. Only post your completed entries. Any works in progress posted will count as an entry...the reason for this is because I don't want to end up scrolling through unfinished work just to get to the actual entries.

3. Please have all entries in by Christmas Day. i wish i could give you guys longer, but December 25th is the only day I can do a clean up so I need it by then.

4. When posting your images, please host them on a dedicated image hosting site like photobucket or imageshack...this is just so the images will load better.

5. You are free to use any means necessary, whether it's photoshopping game images or drawing, but don't use other artists material without permission (proof of permission will be required)

6. My only real condition about how the banner looks is that it has text, signifying that it's for the KOTOR trilogy. It doesn't have to be exactly the same as the text on the current banner, though if you want to use the same style or wording, it won't be held against you.

7. There will be no voting. I will pick the banner i feel is most suitable, this is because there wouldn't be any time to vote due to the temporary closing of the boards.

8. Just a tip...when creating your banner, keep in mind the colour scheme of the boards. Contrasting colours are fine, just make sure that they don't clash negatively with the board colours.

9. All entries must conform to the rules of the site...in other words, no porn :P

10. While the size of the banner can be adjusted, please make it as large and as clear as possible to help the size transition...but make sure it doesn't stretch the page. Also, I'm sure you know how a banner looks, but in case you don't, it should be wider than it is high.

Disclaimers:

1. By posting your banner entry, you agree to the use of your banner for any and all purposes relating to the Knights Of The Old Republic Movie Trilogy and its forum.

2. By posting your banner entry, you agree to allow any necessary modifications to the banner by the site administrator or the KOTOR team for forum or advertising purposes.

Those disclaimers essentially mean that we can use the banners for other purposes, such as promoting the movies...also the modification disclaimer is actually designed to help entries. If you post an entry that I like but feel needs a change to work, such as colour correction, then I'll be able to do that and you'll still be credited...this is unlikely to happen...I suck at art :lol:


Ok, so you have until December 25th, get cracking....

Sir Palamadis (correct spelling?) is the guy for this competition, his DVD art works has really paid off.

But I guess it wouldn't hurt trying.. Not to win, but to improve my skills!

I'd do it (after all I made the banner for my site) but I don't think I'll have the time. Maybe...

I'm extending the deadline to give you guys more time. Entries now have to be in by December 31st.

The winning entry will then have their banner installed as the site banner for 2008.

WOW! Just WOW!! :huh: Those are simply...breathtaking, especially the first two! The third one might be simple but it's excellent as well! B) Mere words cannot describe the awesomeness of your work SP! :D I can't really decide on a personal favourite, although I must admit that I like the first one a little bit better than the others...just a little. :rolleyes:

Great work SP! Keep it up! B)

Thanks JK24! You should have a try as well, the contest is still open and I'm sure you would create some nice stuff....
You like the first one better? The second one took most of the time. Until I had the right colors and the lighting on Logans face. I wanted to take the same Logo as the other two but you couldn't read it because it was so small, so I created a new one....So I think the second one is WAY better than the first!

I like the second one best as well. I don't know what it is, but...I like it. :D

What does the text say, by the way? Just gibberish?

Anyway, great work on all three, and the same goes to everyone else who posted one!

Oh, and a handy tip: If you can't see the images, just it the quote button and you'll be able to see the direct links. Then just copy/paste into your URL.
