Clavus Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 As you might know we planned to change the skin of Left4Green a long time ago. Now, since we selected a good base for the new skin (this one), we need to change it somewhat. Mainly, we need a new banner.This is the original file:My idea was that members of both Mr. Green forums participate in this contest for designing a new banner. Rules: You can change the width of the original (just don't overdo it, a 1000 pixel wide banner won't fit), but not the height. Provide two versions of your banner: one with "Left4Green" on it and one with "Mr. Green" on it. This is because the Phone Dark skin might replace the standard skin on Mr. Green too, if it comes out nicely (the current Mr. Green skin will stay optional, don't worry). The banner must contain the Mr. Green logo (here's an high-def version) Submit both an high-quality jpeg/png (of both the Mr. Green and Left4Green version), and the layered original Photoshop (.psd) or Paint.NET (.pdn) file, of your work in this topic.Ideas/suggestions/optional:- Let it contain elements/characters from video games like TF2, L4D and GMod.- You can change the background color of the banner, as long as it fits with the rest of the skin.Deadline:Wednesday 25th of February is judgement day. Submit before then.Prizes:- Two months donation status on TF2 (ask Ywa for details) or 5000GC on the Zombie Survival server. Quote
Clavus Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 Forgot to mention: it is recommended to lengthen the width of the banner somewhat, else the header might be a bit empty, much like the current IP Board Pro skin that is default on this forum now. Quote
Mr. Darkness Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Ok, Im on. I dont think that it would be so easy, but not so hard Quote
Botervloot Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 I'm replying here, because I'm curious about the results I aint going to work on it, not that good with photopoop. Quote
Johnathan Pewtershmitz Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Sorry for double posting but this is the version 2 of the banner.Edges are better.Added Mr. Green aswell. Quote
Clavus Posted February 20, 2009 Author Posted February 20, 2009 Is 400 pixels wide okay clav?I think no-one has a monitor of less than 768 pixels wide, so yeah Quote
Ywa Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Sorry for double posting but this is the version 2 of the banner.Edges are better.Added Mr. Green aswell.They look awesome . Quote

Ywa Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Looks awesome. Maybe you can put a TF2 character in it and/or a CSS character? Quote
Johnathan Pewtershmitz Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Sure. Where do you want it placed? After the Tank or before the smoker? Quote

Johnathan Pewtershmitz Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 Just so you know it, Ywa suggested me doing like that, so If you got a complaint complain to him. Quote
