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 :/


Same here, I thought there would be several more winners, like one from each of the banner types.

Here are some of mine:

I liked Daermon's out of those four, simply because it's obviously his own artwork happy.gif and quite funny as well.

Thanks happy.gif

I also thought there would be more winners...Deschain, most of yours look pretty damn good, it's a shame they didn't have as many winners as we thought.

Congratulations to all THREE winners from Lusternia! I am very impressed with Lusternia's showing and the ads are fabulous.

Here are my three.

lol, I like yours.

I think that Ytraelux forgot that IRE has an upcoming graphical MMORPG they would like publicity for... IRE is no longer a MUDS only company. *shrug*

I'm kind of surprised there were only four winners too. I'm not surprised much that I didn't win anything, of course, but I thought for sure that there'd be more than four! laugh.gif


Anyway, here're mine:





Nothing very spectacular. laugh.gif

Here are some of my other entries o.O








And Noola is that the Pirates of the Caribbean font? If so that could be a reason why none of yours were accepted...

I dunno. In the font list it's called Moria. I thought it fit nicely, but it might just be me. laugh.gif

Well, I just made a banner that would not irritate me. I like simple non moving banners. Can't say it is very pretty or anything...

Noola, I really like the one on the top left, and your two square ones. All are nice, and a great use of player artwork.

Bali, even if it is the Pirates font...most fonts are for sale anyway. It's perfectly plausible that she bought it.

And besides, PS3 uses the spiderman font. tongue.gif

Thanks! biggrin.gif

And really, I have no idea about the Pirates font thing. I just scrolled through Photoshop's list of fonts and thought that one looked good. laugh.gif

Did no one notice the spelling error? I'd say that could be a reason...

Where?

Nevermind.

Well, I feel stupid, don't I. sad.gif Ah well, I knew I wasn't going to win, I just didn't realize that I was going to actually embarrass myself. I know I suck at spelling and I ran all the phrases through a spell-checker to try to be safe. Guess it didn't catch it cause it's actually a word.

Hah, disserve.

You need to use human spellcheckers. Anyone who wasn't reading what they expected to read (like you would because you wrote it) would have been able to tell that was wrong.
