McNeo 3 Posted June 27, 2012 My biggest contest yet! I'm looking for two AMAZING images to promote all things xenoGamers. I'm gonna break this down some since a couple people are getting hung up here and there. Images This contest consists of two images: Banner: 460px wide by 60px tall Square: 460px by 460px (approx) Requirements I am mostly lax on these rules if I like what I see For both images Appearance: Must be original Must submit Banner and Square designs as defined above of the same design/theme Be neat, clean, professional These will be used for marketing. Don't weigh them down with too much text. Make the images eye catching and engaging. Content: Must contain "xenoGamers" (Use of existing logos/banners/icons is a plus but not required - DO NOT USE OUR CURRENT FAVICON) Must include "www.facebook.com/xgrepresent" OR the Facebook logo immediately followed by "xgrepresent" Do not use any images or content that does not fall under Fair Use protection (basically, if you use copyrighted stuff, don't do anything to imply xenoGamers owns it) You may include your generic/permanent xG or Steam username and UserID as a watermark if you wish, no larger than 10px tall, must be within 20px of the bottom edge For Square image only Content: Must include "xenogamers.com" AND the QRcode defined below (QRcode should be used in proximity to "xenogamers.com") Must include some information about the games, gametypes, and servers we offer (don't include IPs just in case they change) Must include "25% off at HostGator.com with code 'xenogamers'" QRcode Any one of these images must be included in the "Square" image as-is. No size or color changes allowed. White border must be included. Make sure your editor doesn't make it fade, it must remain 2-toned. Choose 56x56px, 84x84px, or 200x200px. http://xg.mcneo.me/_hosting/images/xgqr56.png http://xg.mcneo.me/_hosting/images/xgqr84.png http://xg.mcneo.me/_hosting/images/xgqr200.png How To Enter Design the images as described Email images and forum username to [email protected] Entries must be received by Friday 07/27/2012 You do NOT need to make your designs public if you don't want to If, for whatever reason, I don't like an aspect of your entry I will let you know so you can refine your design.

McNeo 3 Posted July 5, 2012 Well in the rules I said it didn't need to be public. If they chose not to then that was their choice, not mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McNeo 3 Posted July 5, 2012 I know who it is now. He's asked for it to stay private. I do very much like it but there's a thousand other things I'm sure I'd love. My artistic ability ends at 48x48 pixel icons for programs I develop lol (and most of those are already images I just shrink and modify lol) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
