Artist Needed!

[Dave]

Or artists!

I'm doing a JOIN US notice that only Unregistered people will see. An example of what it will look like is below. But instead of the trees and stuff I want to use art from our users. It can be a comic or a picture, but it has to be landscape. Be sure to put your name (and or user name) visibly on the drawing so that people will know it's yours.

In essence all those Lurkers we have will see your art! If I get more than one I'll make each of them a separate Notice and they'll cycle through with the same text.

 

[Bumble the Boy Wonder]

So just fill up a 1763x325 window with art and you'll do the rest?

 

[Dave]

A-yup.

 

[drifter]

Bork bork bork

Spoiler: Spoilered for size

 

[Azurephoenix]

Holy shit that last one is disturbing

 

[David]

My vote for Home of the Frosty Susan.

 

[Zappit]

Gimme a couple days and I'll bang out something really special just for this.

 

[Dave]

Note that anything on the far left might be covered up by the words. Look again at the example.

 

[drifter]

Fixed for text space.

Spoiler: Again spoilered for size

Also, thought it would be nice to make a banner that might actually encourage people to sign up, instead of driving them away.

Three of yours are now live. Log out to see them in action.

Note I did NOT include the Frosty Susan and I really debated doing the Calleja one.

Poor Carlo

Feel free to drop that one once you get more banners. I can understand not wanting to put it out there; I mostly made it because it amused me.

Also, made a minor edit to the GasBandit one.

*spittake*

Oh dear lord, hahaha. Mathias and Jay both wake up to sexy times and my grinning face pops up on our front page. I ask you Halforums,who got the better deal?

 

[Silver Jelly]

XD

Now I'm really famous!

Wait, Calleja? Curses! That sexy mexican gets all the fame again!

 

[Bumble the Boy Wonder]

for now

 

[Bowielee]

FYI, the register button runs off the banner.

Yeah, on smaller screens it does that. I have to change the wording a little.

Moved the width of the text box out a bit. Let's see if that makes a difference.

 

[drifter]

holy crap

I want both frosty susan and gas bandit as t-shirts

Make it happen, Dave

Moved the width of the text box out a bit. Let's see if that makes a difference.

Spacing looks squished now. These are a bit better, I think.

 

[Timmus]

I don't think this one is ready for prime time so criticism is welcome.

 

[MindDetective]

I want to see all the artists on the board take a crack at that in their own style!

So you want me to replace all the arms and claws with penises and the durr face with Nick?

 

[MindDetective]

That's what I said!

[Officer_Charon]

Just saw the banner today.... oh God, I disturbed some folks at the hotel with my laughter. Bravo, Halforums artists, bravo!

 

[Dave]

checkeredhat just sent me a new banner. It's up and it's fucking AWESOME!!

 

[Espy]

That is awesome!

 

[Gusto]

My unrecognizable human self!

 

[tegid]

Love it!

I didn't even bother to redraw you. I have no shame, I just reused the same drawings of you and Allen.
In case anyone can't tell, left to right it's supposed to be ThatNickGuy, North_Ranger, Espy, GasBandit, Cajungal, Chaz... Mathias... a shark, Gusto, Bowielee, Bumble the Boy Wonder, Allen who is Quiet, me, stienman, Cheesy1, Frank, Officer_Charon, Shegokigo, and LittleSin, with Jay and Dave battling in the front.

Also holy balls does this ever look different on my screen than on my cintiq. Allen's skin tone looks like he's half lobster and NR's looks undead. I REALLY have to start checking for that.

 

[Allen who is Quiet]

I burn easily.

 

[Cajungal]

Holy crap, that is beautiful. So awesome, so hilarious. I could totally tell who everyone was.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

I'm Superman with a beer in his hand?

I approve.

 

[GasBandit]

Now you get to face the legions of folks who want to know why THEY are not in the banner.

 

[Azurephoenix]

Yeah, why aren't I in the banner? SO LAME!!

Actually your banner is pretty damn awesome and I recognized everyone in it immediately.
