Here's an updated one. I changed the font to a less fancy one maybe it'll curve the blurryness away.

Mmmm...what else is there to winter other than snow and Christmas? Kwanzaa and Hanukkah? New Years? College Football Bowls? Packers at Lambeau Field? I can't think of anything else.

There's Valentines (Which I'm surprised nobody even bother trying to do)

JOJOS'STAR · 2004-12-13, 15:52

Okay officialy those three.

It's a really great banner, but you're stretching the theme a bit... How are we supposed to know it's a snow fairy without being told

Mr_Paper: Wonderful idea for a banner; looks good too... sadly the font is still doing it zero favors.

Cammie · 2004-12-13, 17:12

So far these are my favorite ones:
Muir Woods

RedEyes

aahhsin

Shin Kell

I like these banners because they stay with the winter theme.

But don't we usually associate Valentine's with spring?

Well... no. It does lie awfully close to the Spring Equinox. But nontheless it's usually in Early - Mid Febuary and technically lies in the Winter.

And since nobody is going to do it. I guess I'll have to. Prepare to get your banners blasted with plentiful Fs.

Here are the current banner submissions:

Spoiler for lots of banners:

RedEyes · 2004-12-13, 18:30

Here's my question
Do you think the one with the snowy background is more winter like?
or the one with christmastree and presents more winter like for both my OP banner.

RavenChild · 2004-12-13, 18:31

ok away with my spring disqualification(sp?)!

here is my first one of this season:

Hellychan · 2004-12-13, 18:31

OMG!

How could I have missed that event?! Gahh!!! School is eating all my time!

...*sob*...
I've just had the time to make this simple one...(I wish I had more time, oh well...)

Now /me goes to sleep! (only 5 hours before getting up again! ahhh!!! tasukete!

)

Btw, I've seen some very pretty banners

Helly, you always make the prettiest banners >.< such a constrained space I can't work with. But you do wonder, this banner definately has my vote in the finals ^_^ winter just radiates off it.

I agree .. >_<

But I will work on the 2nd one so, that 'll make two of them. The first one will probably not pass the juge's standard anyway

hobobaggins · 2004-12-13, 19:42

7 more hours for everyone to post a shingetsutan tsukihime banner!

awk!

no Fullmetal Alchemist! no Gundam Seed Destiny! how could you!!!

Quote:

Some sort of strategy?

shh! chibidusk doesnt realise that if he picks one, most of the total votes he will collect will go towards his best one!

More to come later. I don't feel mean enough anymore.

zomg! what is this madness! are you sick! got mad cow! (STD yes?)

OMchan · 2004-12-13, 19:42

Ooo~ Almost time for nominations. Can't wait. Banners are coming along great.

People seem to be submitting less banners (less than 3) than the last contest. Some sort of strategy?

Prince of Chronics: Yeah... I really should make more banners... maybe over the winter break. I'm just feeling a bit lazy right now... and I have a lot of work to take care of IRL.

Ahhh, winter = hibernation = sleep! That's perfect!

Just kidding...it's very pretty. ^o^

ChibiDusk · 2004-12-13, 19:56

Alright, hobo you have inspired me to create a great stategy! Moo-haha.
So, fellow members, which of my banners do you like the most (and why)?
PMs would be appreciated as to not clutter this thread, in return i will answer the same for you.

aahhsin · 2004-12-13, 19:58

Obviously mine are ommited for obvious reasons.

AB = The only Gripe I have about this banner is the small caption (Winter Edition) It really doesn't need to be there. Nobody is that stupid here to not realize that it's a winter banner. Sure you can state that you're helping the Naruto Forumers, but I doubt they'll even notice the change since it's not Naruto to begin with. I especially love the background you did. A nice giant snowflake.

Ashton = It doesn't work. Period. The edges are too rough and flat to blend in with the soft blue on the top. Remember Your banner doesn't stretch all the way across the screen. Try placing where your banner is on the top. It'll look tacky, ugly, and just plain unsightly.

Azulet 1 = She's sideways! Nobody likes a character that's sideways. It looks awefully strange, and a cheap attempt to show that she's wearing a Santa Outfit. Population impressed? You.

Azulet 2 = Very Blue very plain very unoriginal. There's too much blue in this banner, makes it very moody and sad. The lack of color is one thing but ,the background which looks like ice all stuck together, doesn't really match the 2 girls in the forground.

Azulet 3 = Finally we have something here. A nice grainy picture, a obviously winter theme, and a cute girl to boot. Nothing wrong, nothing amazing. Next!

Chibidusk 1,2, &3! = All of these freaking banners look practically 100% the same! Hell I could swear #1 and #2 is exactly the same freaking banner! Only a different anime character! Hell and the 2nd banner isn't even doing anything winter! When's the last time you saw a maid's outfit on christmas?

You could at least change the background to something different.

Recycled mess that's the best term for the 3.

Oh, I like the first one the most. At least that was original... and has more winter theme going on.

Diabolistic = See Ashton for your second banner. As for your first one. You need to spread out and distribute the snowflakes more. I don't believe that the snowflakes will magically miss the font but miraculously go around it. The font needs a nice clean stroke to go along with it. Looks so ugly without a stroke to accompany it.

Green Green = If someone asks you to play "Pin the tail on the donkey", I suggest you refuse no matter how many times they pressure you. the word "forums" is probably the most out of place word I have seen on every single banner there is. I mean c'mon it's right there in the cornor for some odd reason. Not to mention, after looking at the Animesuki font, this font is very out of place.

Jojo = I no see Christmas or anything winter. Please help me. Even that fairy doesn't work. Just throw on some snowflakes and you're fine. If the snowflakes are in good position, you'll have a very high chance to win.

Mr. Paper = I like things centered. If you just center the word Forums, It'll be terrific.

More to come later. I don't feel mean enough anymore.
