Jade Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) I'm in. But maybe you should rethink some of the rules. A banner isn't the length of a small wallpaper. 800 x 600 is wallpaper size... Voting should be open a minimum a week. Not everyone comes on here every day. You shouldn't tell us we have to use textures etc and specific text as some of us may not be able to do all this. Think about equality. As long as it's valentines based it doesn't really matter what MUST be included. Edited February 5, 2013 by magicbeans Link to post Share on other sites

Could be helpful. When I made a new doc in ps I saw it is actually way too big for a banner. Link to post Share on other sites

As long as it's valentines based it doesn't really matter what MUST be included.Well a good banner size is 600x350 it can be shorter than that as long it's not wallpaper size. The voting I will exceed it up to a week. So everyone will get a chance to vote. As for the details & etc...Has to have Happy Valentine or any love related text. It's not a must that textures HAVE to be used. As long as its a Valentine theme.I apologize for the the other rules I'm hopefully these new rules will be a improvement for the competition.Number Of People Enter:1.MrsClaus 2. pixie vampire3.magicbeans 4.5.6.7.

Jade Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I never read you later post. I realize now you said it was a mistake. But yeah as for the text it doesn't really matter as long as it's love themed. However, it is fair that you stated text is a must. It's part of the competition. It's fair you've given us a week to make it, as you did start it late. But you never know if the entries are in earlier you can start the voting earlier. When does signing up close? May I ask?

cutiesmartgurl Posted February 5, 2013 Author Share Posted February 5, 2013 Whenever everyone submit their entries through pm making sure I got every single one that enter the competition. Thankyou for understanding good luck to everyone. Link to post Share on other sites
Jade Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 (edited) I just went into my photoshop and put in the banner size you wanted 600 x 350 but it seemed impossible. It's way too square. Can't we just choose our own banner size? I see you mentioned about how it can be shorter, so would you mind me doing 600 x 250? I mean I could sort of work with 600 x 250 if it has to be 600 width, though that's not a banner shape either. If not I'm afraid I'm out, sorry. A standard signature is 400 x 200. A standard avatar is 100 x 100 and a standard banner is actually 700 x 100. (In terms of graphics) I'm not saying it's impossible to make this banner but I'd at last need 600 x 250 or 600 x 200. XD I know I'm being fussy, I'm sorry. >.< EDIT: Also you should enter too. After all it's not like we're voting it's everyone else. So, it's fair.
