:winkwink:

And now for somthing completly different......
This concept started out this way
http://www.jeffsgals.com/a/dreamtank2.gif
unfortunatly 3d animation creates huge ass files(over 200k), at least at the level of technical knowlage I'm at right now.
So, I had to go with this. I know, not really mainstream looking, but screw it. It was fun to make.

WOW, these are looking awesome. Its going to be tough. I think instead of picking one winner, we should have a first, second and third place winner. I would hate to see the others not be used.

Here is another entry from me. I think a first second and third place is a great idea, it would be damn hard to choose just one.

You should definately render this in Flash MX, I think it will narrow down the size at least 75%.

THanks for the tip, I considered that. As far as I know though, flash isn't alowed in sigs....unless you are saying that converting it to a flash file then back to a gif will drop the size?

I don't think converting it back to animated gif will get the size a lot lower than it was originally...I think flash is the only logical way to keep down the size really low.

But as you said, flash isn't allowed, so I think you need to alter your concept therefore :winkwink:

THanks, concepts are always evolving in my mind(see second entry), now just to get my skills up there to match my imagination.

when does the contest ends ?

very nice!

UMMMM one thing that should maybe be mentioned, they DO NOT co-locate. Unless I read it wrong on thier site. Here is a copy+paste right from thier front page.

DreamTank owns and operates it's own $9M data center in downtown Los Angeles with 192 strands of fiber into One Wilshire. We do not co-locate in someone else's data center.

Cyberage-Dave DID state however that the banners should mention co-locating;

But its just a matter of changing text I guess.

Yeah its no big deal to change text. (unless its been rastarized:winkwink: ) I guess it would be best to wait till Dave or Jim has a chance to respond, could be a typo.

Hi, here is our entry. Cheers to people like you![IMG]G:\dtank[/IMG]

I don't see anything. You might want to fix that:thumbsup

You guys are the best.......

Seriously we are blown away at some of the entries.......anyone wgho enters will get something

Hey Jim, is it co-locating? or NO co-locating? I saw on your site it says you do not co-locate, but Dave put that you do. Could you maybe clear that up.
Thanks, Jeff

LOL....we definately co-locate....

what we mean is that we actually own our own data center we are not co-located in someones facility

we are a bonified level three cert telco facility....

192 strands of fiber that home run directly into the MDF through diverse pathway to One Wilshire (backbone) more than SBC, Qwest, AT&T....no shit!

great questions.....the banners are looking great.

THanks for clearing that up Jim, now I can finish the other two I have sitting here.:winkwink:

wow, very good looking! :thumbsup

WOW, this is going to be tough.

I think Jim will pick on either Tuesday or Wed if he's here.

Lets go until Weds ...I'm leaving that night
