Topic: 2nd Annual L-E Banner CONTEST!!

[tlynnec]

Live-evil is calling for entries in our Second Annual Official Banner Contest!!

Yup, that's right. L-E is having a contest and you are invited to enter.  Multiple entries are allowed. This is your chance to show off those fancy photoshop skills.  And all you sketch/drawing artists out that, this contest is open to you too!

The contest: Design a banner for L-E's homepage.

The prize: Your banner will be added to the rotating banners on L-E's website (obviously!) and the winning nick(s) will be announced on the site as well. ... Oh, and did I mention that we have some physical goodies too?

The rules:

• MUST be 730x185(pixels)
  
  • Please note, the edges will be cut off by the frame when the banner is posted, so keep that in mind when creating your design.
• MUST be in .jpeg, .bmp, .png, or .gif format. JPEG preferred.
• MUST contain the Live-Evil logo
  
  • Download the logo in jpeg & psd format here: http://www.live-evil.org/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/le-logo.zip
    
  • This may be faded or the edges blurred to make it look good in your design, but it must be prominately visible.
• Entries MAY be created from screenshots, drawn, or any combination thereof, but MUST come from a current Live-evil project.         
  • See http://www.live-evil.org/current-past-dropped-projects/ for a list of current L-E projects.
• MAY contain the logo of the show(s) being used, but MAY NOT contain any other text (apart from the L-E logo).  No links to other websites, signatures, nicks, etc. will be permitted
• MUST NOT contain content of an overly graphic or offensive nature.
• Entries not meeting the above requirements will be disqualified.

The DEADline: EXTENDED - January 6, 2008 - 11:59 PM PST.
(Deadline has been extended! Please enter NOW!!!)

The judges: The staff of Live-evil will vote on the entires and determine the winner(s)!  If the entries are good enough, runners up may be chosen and their banners displayed as well.

Submission: 3 methods acceptable:

• E-mail your entry to le-contest@live-evil.org.
        Not that we expect any problems, but: if you do not receive a response to your e-mail within 24 hours, it was not received.

and.... that's it. Ready? Set... GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd like to see a You're Under Arrest banner! If anyone has photoshop skills, please make one! ^^

Also, I do not believe we have a Creamy Mami banner... Do we?

[tlynnec]

[Alioth]

Are multiple entries allowed or is there a limit to one entry per person? And yes, I did just register a minute ago so that I could ask this question Hi everyone!

[Sindobook]

As in prior years, are pictures of the pig or staged re-enactment / "cosplay" photographs allowed?

[bmfrosty]

I think we need Hikaru no Go, Chobits, Naruto, and Gakuen Heaven banners.

[tlynnec]

Are multiple entries allowed or is there a limit to one entry per person?

Great question. In fact, I just modified the first post to include the answer.  Yes, multiple entries are allowed.  All we ask is that each entry be different, not just the same graphic in a different color, etc.

I think we need Hikaru no Go, Chobits, Naruto, and Gakuen Heaven banners.

  Heh, anyone who wants to be disqualified, please follow bmfrosty's advice!

As in prior years, are pictures of the pig or staged re-enactment / "cosplay" photographs allowed?

  Well... why not? As long as they are for a current L-E series and meet all the other requirements listed in the first post. ^_^

[bmfrosty]

So sad.  No tributes to our 2001 work or to our parodies.

Well my first attempt on You're Under Arrest! Full Throttle banner for Live-Evil, hope you guys like it ^^

[Tofusensei]

Looks good! Can you clean up the picture for the "You're Under Arrest!" in red? It looks a little sloppy.

[winsonkoh]

like this?


Or w/o the YuaFT logo:


I was wondering if the font was Arial Narrow or something...

[Tofusensei]

I'll leave it to the judges to decide! Thanks! ^^
