Introduction...

Okay, straight up: we need a banner.

Yes, we have one already (that we got for FREE courtesy of the great Fuzzy_Poop ^^) but we'd like to see what you can come up with. I want to see your brilliance, your creativity, your... nice blinking graphics! Think you got what it takes homie? Then read on.....

Details.....

The banner you'll create for us is the small banner seen when you search for guilds. This is the banner we're talking about:

If you wanted to create the kind of banner you put in your sig to advertise the guild, then this isn't the contest for you. You'll find that contest here: The Link Us Banner Contest.

This contest will last from November 12th to February 12th. That should give everybody enough time to give me quality work.

Remember, the banner size is 200 pixels wide x 40 pixels high

Pointers/hints ;D.....

There are some specific things I like in a banner. Now keep in mind, none of these things have to be in your banner. If you create a banner that includes none of these things but still kicks hiney, kudos to you! ^^ All that matters is that you create a banner I like (preferably love heart ) and would seriously consider using. That's how you win.

The colors: navy blue, gold, emerald green, deep sky blue, carnation pink, lavender, turquoise, and teal.

You can make it cute and adorable or rough and hard core. I really don't care how you go about doing it. It's your imagination and creativity, and I want to see what different brilliant minds can come up with! So do what you think will win it, and remember: the more original and kick-hiney it is, the more likely you'll win!
