$300.00 Flash Banner Design Contest - GoFuckYourself.com

dig420 · 05-04-2004, 02:06 PM

Put it in caps this time, I've seen designers go crazy for $50.00, I KNOW somebody wants to collect these three bills.

I need an 88x31 and a 624x80, 50k Max flash banner for http://www.darkcavern.com/webmasters to go on top and bottom of GFY. I want something clever and catchy that will get webmaster eyeballs. You can get access to several free galleries of pix to use if necessary by just signing up to the proggie and logging in. Post your banners in this thread.

Winner will get paid by paypal, and he'll get to see his work every day right here on GFY !

You misspelled interracial in the first banner. Fix that and I think it looks GREAT!

What's the problem if he uses Swish? As far as I know, what matters is creativity, not the tools you use. And no offense, but his banner is better than yours. Maybe not technically, but from a sales point of view. And at the end, is all that matters. even if he did it with MS Paint

Who said anything about his banner sucking.
I said not bad. Now didnt I?

Yes, what matters IS creativity.
Using Swish, takes no creativity.

Run along now.

that's bullcrap ...you edit the images in photoshop first and after
that import them to swish..i don't see anything wrong with that

Swish doesn't create the banner or tetx for you...it gives you easy to apply effects

It's a tool...why use textpad when you have dreamweaver

Btw, all the effects i've seen in you're banner so far can be done with swish as well

i think you mean the warping of the white background ...i'm sure it can be done with the "move"command but might not look so "warpy"

I must admit i like your previous banner the best..the dc1 version

Thrawns banner is a tad on the slow side..i always like quick flashing white/black backgrounds (strobe) as they get your attention quick.

gl on the contest
