We need a banner ad that conforms to these specs:

468x60 pixels and a max of 30KB.

Who wants to be a hero?

We have absolutely no pre-conceived notions in mind.

First concept. If you don't like it, tell me why so I can fix it. If you just plain hate it, tell me why so I can make a new one.

Wow.

Fast.

Nice looking too.

Wow, Airstrike. Just... Wow.

Yeah, that most definitely works. Thank you very much!

SomethingAwful.com, Whatboyswant.com, maybe the Denver Broncos and we'll see where else after that.

Okay, is there a way to make the smaller text stand out more? Perhaps brighten the words a bit?

On a dark web page it gets hard to read. It's fine here, but on a darker page it makes it difficult.

What coloured background? I put it against a black background, and I didn't notice any discernible difference. Maybe if I moved the smaller words away from Gametramp! so more of it is periwinkle rather than green? I thought that might be a problem. Is that what you meant?

Maybe, Airstrike. I'm not an artist. I don't know how to articulate what I'm saying very well, and maybe what I think is the issue isn't actually the issue.

I'm just saying the small words are hard to make out sometimes. Is there any way you can make those easier to read?

Like, are all of the small words hard to read, or just 'Flames' and 'Discussion'?

Is this looking better looking?:

Also, I had to make a slight adjustment in my first copy, it should already be reflected in previous posts.

Holy cow, T! Nicely done. Those are really cool. That one red one looks 3d!

I made something new. I used colors from the main page of the website for the color combination.

It's simple but tell me what you think. I don't know about the whole copy right thing with the font and grenade though.

We like it a lot!

Thank you very much. That's definitely an option for us to explore.

Just wondering but where are you posting these?

If you tell me what you want it to look like I might be able to make something better.

Depends on what it's for, but mostly no.

Same idea as the last one but a different font and a few other changes.

I made this one also:

Again I do not know the copyright with the font or anything else so if something happens it is not my fault.

i suggest you don't include the grenade, and we figure out our own logo.

Yeah I agree with you but I don't really know what I am suppose to make in the first place. The icon for this website is a grenade so I put it on the banner. If The Gremlins asks for something else then I will try to do it.

We've been working on that for a while. the favicon can be 16 by 16 pixels.

Feel free to give it a go and make one of our own.

how about a mixture of pandemic and SA type stuff?
The Gremlins
01-Dec-09, 12:20
That'd work. Although Pandemic is EA and thus would probably sue us.
The Greměns
01-Dec-09, 16:19
I think this website should try to get away from Pandemic and SA in some ways. The icon should be something original if someone here does make one. I'd try to create an icon but I don't really have any idea what this website is suppose to be for. I might make something just for fun but if I don't that is the reason.

I've come up with the most random Favicon ever... IDk.

Also, a random banner...
