I've entered a few now! They're not animated or anything, so they probably won't win, but I'm gonna have oodles of fun imagining what I'd do with the winnings anyway!

And to celebrate, I've changed my avatar! Squotter enjoyed his reign for tooooooo long!

Question, which font is used for the spelling of 'Lusternia' on the header of the main web page?

No, I mean, I have Photoshop, and I'm not bad with it. Imageready is the alter ego of Photoshop that is used to prepare graphics for websites and animate them. But the animations done in Imageready aren't nearly as savvy as those done in flash...which I also own, but I have never really learned how to use it.

This is my big chance I guess.

From the looks of it, that was custom drawn and not just done with an unmodified font.

Fauxto is Flex not flash based

Then seriously, just use Photoshop with the "Save for Web" function. Imageready is a redundant program in the main, which is why they scrapped it in Photoshop CS3.

When do we find out the winners?!

I'm all anxious to see how bad I probably lost.

Me toooo! I want to oooh and ahhhh at everyone who's better than me!

There's an unlimited amount of possible "winners". You could 'win' many times over. Your banner is either good enough to be 'bought' or it isn't.

But I wanna see the ones that are good enough!

Yeah, the contest is over, I'd like to see the winning banners, or at least a list of the people who won. Or something like that.

Can anyone confirm if anyone has "won" anything so far? You would think we would at least see an announce post or something.

Assuming they want to finish the contest today, yesterday was a Sunday and right now it's likely still rather early where Matt, et al, are - give it a few hours, people.

So, were there any confirmed winners?

I dunno, apparently there have been, but I don't know who or how many or if they're still picking or anything... I'm hoping that they'll make an announcement when they've picked all they're gonna pick and then put the winners on display so I can ooh and ahh.

Apparently, they got hundreds of entries and are still sifting through them.

So if you got the newsletter you'd have found out...

Winners

Only 4 winners? O_o Well, congrats to all!

Oh and post up the banners you submitted! Mine were kinda similar to some of those that won...

OMFG YES! I didn't even know, and I said that people would!

*glee*

Congrats to Balizar, Laegroth, and Aster (if they read the boards). :D

In hindsight, my banner kind of sucks, too.

My craptacular banner:



Kind of disappointed at the lack of winners though. The way the hype of it was, figured there'd be more. I knew I wasn't winning anything, but would of loved to see more original stuff then what was submitted. The only banner that really impressed me was Balizar's :/

Neat!

*relief*

As the judges know, I entered a LOT of banners. They chose my best one. The treant in the banner is courtesy from the Achaen artisanals, done by Rociel. Kharaen, I too thought there would be more winners by the way they worded the contest info. *shrug* I'm grateful!

edit: Looking for the newsletter, can't find it.. >.>
