acapellaKeymaster[color color=green:2gfx9luv][size size=200:2gfx9luv](Winners now chosen – See the ANNOUNCEMENTS )[/size:2gfx9luv][/color:2gfx9luv]
It’s time to turn out a big Phat competition we thought!
We sooo need a new banner for the site. That’s it basically! – depending on the overall response to this one, we might even extend the whole ‘graphic’ thing to running another competition in the Autumn for a logo + link buttons or something.
Rules:
1) Your logo should use the existing colours of the site (see code block below)
2) If you are unable to host your design online then we will take entries via email to @acapellas4u.co.uk">logocomp@acapellas4u.co.uk
3) non animated .gif plz.
[color color=red:2gfx9luv]NEW- 4) We will be needing more of a ‘banner design‘ to replace our existing one. Sorry if we confused the issue by using the term ‘logo’ + apologise prefusely for wasting anyone’s precious time. [/color:2gfx9luv]Closing Date:
September 25th ’05All entries will be judged by a team chosen by myself.
There will be only 1 x winner with 2 x runner’s up.
1st Prize: – 500 Bonus Acapellas // 2 Runner’s Up: – 250 Bonus Acapellas
Good luck everyone who decides to have a bash and see their artwork forever set in stone on the good ship pella!

i’ll get right on it!!AdSense 336x280August 22, 2005 at 8:42 pm #577125
REVAParticipantGreat Idea, im on it. Could we have the colour codes for the site if the graphics are to be in the same colour.

LexusParticipantNice One!!!!! I might give this a go!!!!

Morbid MatronParticipantOOOOOH, interesting thing. I might give it a try, BIG PRIZE btw. Interesting…
AdSense 336x280August 23, 2005 at 12:04 am #577140
tabithaParticipantive got another question.. by logo do you mean just the black and white bit on the left or the whole top of the page? and if just the b+w logo, will the current image with the white diagonal lines stay as they are?
thanx, great competition and the prize, ppl, the prize…
AdSense 336x280August 23, 2005 at 12:49 am #577141
dj_stingParticipantI guess we’re just posting our entries in here? Or how is that gonna work exactly? let us know where we’re gonna submit our pictures
AdSense 336x280August 23, 2005 at 4:39 am #577145
DJ LMA aka DJ LeethalParticipantI’ll give it a go (though I only got skills in blending shi* together than actually creating a new design). We’ll see what happens though. But I wanted to ask if I can submit more than one image? And because bi0 said GIF’s are accepted I was wondering can the GIF image be an animation? Or just a still image?

Correction: I participated!!

acheadKeymasterthats amazing man, cool as fuck
AdSense 336x280August 23, 2005 at 3:32 pm #577155
DJ_BradyParticipantNice racuda.. awesome Genesis!
I have no idea about that whole code part of acapellas post, its confusing… anyone else understand it?
I’ll give this ago, although I dont need the credits but stillAdSense 336x280August 23, 2005 at 5:02 pm #577158
dj_stingParticipantAight here’s a first attempt on my part…lemme know what ya think

AdSense 336x280August 23, 2005 at 5:08 pm #577160
GenesisParticipantRacuda, it’s a nice thing, but try adjusting it. This looks more like a signature than a logo :p
The fixed size and form make its uses very limited.
Wait… am I giving advice to the competition?! I’m just too nice

MelParticipantI remember a contest similar to this one. I felt that my designs were slept on last time. Maybe this time ya’ll will feel me.
Hey, ACAPELLA, if I win, can I also display the work as an example in my design portfolio online?
AdSense 336x280August 24, 2005 at 2:08 pm #577216
acheadKeymasterAny size/aspect preferences?
AdSense 336x280August 24, 2005 at 3:02 pm #577217
In SilicoParticipantCan I make an animated gif, save it to flash, compress it and convert it to a .png, and then send it in as an M-JPG? sweet!
(PS, I’m kidding, I’m making fun of dumb people who only read the first line of the comp description.)

Hi Silico, I know you’re only having some fun but in those members’ defense that rule wasn’t in there from outset, think I only edited it yesterday.
It’s always a dilemma from an admin’s point of view with a post such as this.. does one tag on his/her reply to answer replies or does one merely edit the original post.. always a bugger.
racuda – feeling yours atm
loving the font and overall design so far.Crin re: sizes. The logo will replace what we currently have at the top of the forum.

MelParticipanthey ACAPELLA, I’m not sure if you saw my last post.
This is not an egotistical statement, but if I win, can I display the logo in my design portfolio online?

Brutha these are krazy! Nice random diversity, yet similar style… hehe. One thing tho, and this goes out to all designers in this comp (dunno why I’m explaining this to the competition… hehe):
All the information (ie: the web address) needs to be on the left with the title, because people view this page at different resolutions, so some of the right side of the graphic will be cut off if their screen resolution isn’t as wide as the graphic. Get me? That’s why the logo that’s in place at the moment is so usable. It will fit to any screen size (ei: if some of it falls off the edge of the screen, it doesn’t make a difference to the information displayed).
AdSense 336x280August 25, 2005 at 9:13 am #577253
RMXParticipantLeave it with me – and i’ll move the address to the left.
