Twoism Banner Contest

Post by Aesthetics »

Given the amount of designers on this board it would be cool to do a banner contest.
(I'm talking about the banner at the top of this screen)

The rules are:
Professional and high quality!
Banner size: 119x884 and it should be a png or gif file
Colourscheme: Anything, as long as you think it'll match the lay-out.
It must contain the word: twoism
Max 5 entries per member
Deadline: 1 July 2007

Don't post it on here, just send it to crew<>twoism.org (replace <> with @)
The crew will pick the winner(s).
I highly doubt but if no contributions lives up to the expectations we'll reserve the right to cancel the contest.

ok .. so questions

1. if the chosen banner is orange will you reflect the sights color scheme to fit
or should we aim for this greyish blue tone for design .
2. will there be any prize . or is the prize your banner gets to be used on the site
3. i assume the banner would have to be boards of canada related ( i think thats obvious but who knows)

Banners will not be modified whatsoever.
Aim for whatever tone you think looks the best and should help you win.
2. will there be any prize . or is the prize your banner gets to be used on the site
You already answered your own question.
3. i assume the banner would have to be boards of canada related ( i think thats obvious but who knows)
Yeah quite obvious.

Speaking of pulling the bloody tampon out..

Sorry.. I don't mean to start any fights, just saying.

On topic- I can't wait to see what all the creative people on here come up with! Good luck everyone!
