FMA Banner Contest

Options

05-27-2010 11:00 PM

Yo FMA folder, how are ya doing? Well thats good to hear....but anyways I've been thinking this folder needs a kick in the pants, so this here is the beginning of my little campaign of fun little contests/elims I have planned for this folder over the next month or so. As you all have probably noticed the top of this folder has a banner... Do ya hate it? Love it? Totally indifferent to it? Wanna make a totally better one? Well if you answered the latter, congratulations, you're in luck. Depending on the turnout I might make this a monthly contest, every other month, once in awhile....you get the picture...anywho I've rambled enough...here be da rules
  1. As you can pretty much guess, you guys are going to be able to submit a banner and then the FMA populace is going to vote on all the submissions, the voting process will be unveiled after the submission period ends
  2. You can only submit one banner for this contest; Submissions will last  for approximately 1 week.
  3. Banners can be no larger than 250kb, cannot exceed 900 pixels in width and 450 pixels in height. (preferred size is 900x300)
  4. Banners should have some sort of welcoming message on them.
  5. Content rules are as follows: Standard [AS] image rules apply, no sexually explicit images. Banners can only feature characters that have been shown in the AS broadcast. Other than that anything is fair game.

I've been running a similar contest in OA for the past few months now so to get an idea of what were looking for in banners here are the winners from OA as examples.

I tried.

 

Is Barry not the most welcoming son of a bitch you ever saw?

I don't know what's real from the noise, the noise.
I can't hear a thing for the noise, the noise.
I wouldn't do anything, the thunder that throws me away.
I wouldn't do anything, there's something that keeps me away.
I wouldn't do anything, something that begs me to stay.

Well, you've got my vote.

 

But I'm surprised that thing isn't covered in RizaxMustang smex.

So how does this judging work? Helpers pick, everybody votes, etc?
I don't know what's real from the noise, the noise.
I can't hear a thing for the noise, the noise.
I wouldn't do anything, the thunder that throws me away.

I don't want to research pictures and end up getting spoiled, plus... I'm not sure I even know how to make a banner.

Alright due to the fact that there were only 4 submissions I decided that it'd probably just be best to use all of them. So the banner at the top of the page is a cycling of all 4 of the submitted banners. So congratulations everyone, they all look great:smileyvery-happy:

 

And once again a special thanks to Hikki for helping me set this up (and by helping my i mean essentially doing everything >_> ).
