Banner and SIG design contest. 600 Dollars in prizes
 

Ok, CJ Bucks will finally be buying a banner spot on GFY again. Lord knows that I?ve pulled enough business from this board I owe more to Lensman than just being respectful and buying a banner spot.

2. Up to 35 dollars per trial join
3. Up to 75% revenue share
4. Hosted Galleries
5. Free content and hosting
6. Great converting reality sites
7. From the makers of Consumption Junction
8. Sound on the Flash banner, please
9. Flash banner must have the following hahahahahaded link: http://cjbucks.com/join/hit.php?w=100089
10. WE WOULD PREFER SOMETHING CONTROVERSIAL THAT GETS ATTENTION!

I?ll be picking the winners on Sunday night. We?ll have to right to use any of the banners submitted but only the winners will be used on GFY.

Well, we have our first entry. There is a lot of time left guys. You have until Sunday night.

lots of talent here..good luck guys

Great contest Rick!

hmmmmmmmm well then there better be a BIG ASS box of CJ gear if i have to go all the way there to get it... mind you my Fancy Pants is there so its worth it!:thumbsup

OK lets start, here's my first entry, too tired to make/think more now.. About those gif banners - do they have to be static?
This banner would look alot better if I animated those little jumping and handstand guys (..will do ANYTHING to get your business :))..

Nice but a little bit too much in the same banner.

Nice contest:thumbsup

this thread needs to get bumped, or you need to repost to let everyone know

bump :321GFY

I agree, it would be cleaner as an annimated gif.

Are they encouraged or allowed to use unlicensed music?

First crack. Not sure it's ready for primetime but I'll put a version up now to serve as a bump.

I'll probably try other versions with some color shifts and a different tagline since that part is pretty hit-or-miss. Basic delivery method won't vary much.

Also, does file size matter at all? This comes in at a pretty low 11K but is there an upper-end?

best thing to get a lot of attention would be to STEAL someone elses banner design say one for topbucks or ars and link that fucker to cjbucks you would sure get noticed ;)

Good luck guys and girls, this is a wicked contest.

Btw, about the music, you better get the mic and start banging those pots and pans if you don't wish to use unlicensed music.

I agree too :)
that's why I asked if the banner must be static (in your first post you said static 468x60 banner).. I'll make a few new versions today, with animations.

Bump for Rick. I can't wait to see what some of you guys come up with!

What's right with this? You attempted to be controversial. You are the first one that actually read the ALL CAP description in my original post.

What's wrong with it? You aren't using my brand colors, images or logos.


Also, is anyone going to submit a flash banner? Someone asked above about unlicensed music. I'd prefer something original and attention grabbing.

I will give it a go later

Are u willing to extend the timescale a bit?

Thanks

Ok not much but atleast I tried. lol
