The ones not mentioned were added, Please pardon the error. Although I wish I could vote twice.......Again those who have Multiple Accounts please vote once using only one of your accounts to maintain an honest result. Otherwise I will be forced to delete each vote you cast.
 
I've no qualms voting for myself, especially considering the unlikelihood of getting permission to use Henning Ludigsen's images.


Either that, or Shaun's, truly lovely.
 
Although I'd prefer not to vote for myself, I think of the stuff posted I prefer the second of my four. The one with the dark outline on the text.
 
I rather like Tellurian Radiance's entrance. It matches the current color scheme and is simple.
 
Uh mith? I think there's been some error made dude.
I left my info on how to find my picture for the banner contest on here and it's mysteriously disappeared.

On a good note however(other then my recent academic acheivement awards from school) Someone voted for me. Yay me :)
 
Ullery scroll up to Madi's ninth post up from here, and you'll find the link to your picture. Madi moved your errant post to the appropriate thread and added it in up there.
 
The decision on whom to vote for was indeed very difficult to make, but in the end the banner combo of Unholy Charm and Silverlord stood out for me.
 
Unholy Charm & SilverLord, at the moment as you both should know the combo effort is officaly winning the vote however, as was mentioned to me at the moment it has not text indicating where its for, nor do we have official artist consent, so If you two could rectify those issues then there won't be any issues to worry about.
 
Lord, it was some time ago when I came across tha image so no can do, I guess you'll have to remove the image from the contest *shrugs*
 
Well, I've just fired off an e-mail to Henning, intimating that a copyright would appear on the image, and also on the homepage if successful (I took that for granted, apologies), so watch this space.
 
A curious reply, not unexpected in regards the cutting out or use of the robed man image, but because Henning seems laid back about it. One for the mods here I suspect:

"Thanks for getting in touch with me :)

I do allow people to use _some_ of my art for purposes like this, and you can
read it here:
http://www.henningludvigsen.com/wordpress/?page_id=27

As you can see, there are some problems, as the characters have been cut out,
and the robed man is copyrighted to someone else and therefore nothing I can
approve of for anyone else to use because of my client. Still, stuff like this
happens all the time so I won't do anything to stop you, I'll just tell you that
the art has not been used according to my restrictions and I'll leave up to you
to do what ever you like with this.

Thanks for the link included on the first banner, though. :)

-Henning"
 
I'll see if I can back track some to tryand find where I got that image.
 
I tried to locate the site I got that imgae from but wasn't able to find it...sorry
 
Actually, any color goes with black or white since nether is an actual color. If they all suck so badly perhaps You should attempt to make one rather than putting down the attempts made by some of us.
 
Sj, you may not find any of the banners appeasing to your sense of style or what not, but as you didn't get anything in your self you have no room to claim better. IF you are going to critque thier works do so in a constructive fashion from here on.
 
@Mith - Constructive my ass. Suggesting that the 'artists' that they should follow the color scheme is constructive.

Being nonconstructive, would be telling them that if they can't figure out what sort of shit they did wrong, when even I can, then they shouldn't be entering this contest in the first case. I might also mention that this contest is retarded overall, since its entirely possible to use all of the submissions, if we actually wanted to. A random image is one of the easiest scripts to plunder from the world wide webbing.

Nonconstructive would be telling them all that i would rather gouge out my retinas before being forced to look at the utter shite that this thread caused to be loaded to my temporary internet cache, and they should all give serious consideration to suicide this blessed holiday season.


Fortunately, I'm not nonconstructive. ...Destructive, maybe in certain situations. But in my criticism, definitely constructive.

There's a big difference between being nonconstructive and being mean. I'm a mean critic, but definitely a constructive one.

@Charm - Good point, but our 'highlights' if that is the proper term, tend to follow the greenish/blue trend. I'd like to see something that compliments that, while still remains visually appealing, intellectually intriguing, and overall cool enough to provoke enough passing interest sufficient to result in the viewer clicking the banner and being forcefully thrust to our happy little homepage.
 
I'll try to come up with something better
