It's Tales of Symphonia for those of you that haven't played the game.
Alright, it's time to actually get this thing organized. People who are going to enter, say so and show something for it instead of saying yes and having nothing a month later. Before any polls are made, we need to gather up all of the entries. If you plan on entering, post your entry/entries in this thread. The poll will come in a few weeks.

For those of you who are new to this and want in, all submissions should be somewhere around 260x110. A little less or a little more is okay, but keep in mind that I said a little. Don't submit something that's like 400x600, because it's not going to be eligible. One more thing: Keep it video game related. After all, it is Video Game Chat, so we don't need any anime or obscure metal band banners. Have fun!
Edit: I guess we got it. I dunno.
you were supposed to wait until I got photoshop. :(
[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/bann0rz/SCVGCcopy.gif[/IMG]
That's all I've got.
NIGHTMARE THIEF
Well, I am not good with Photoshop at all, but I put all that I have into this. Its the best I can do. I really think it looks good.
[IMG]http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d84/DropDemDrawz/Other/catdx3-1.gif[/IMG]
Ack!! Do I see non-Nintendo stuff there!!! :D:D:D
I like the halo and metroid one's from alastor, the one by Eggroll, and the tetris one from linkman. Don't care for the one maian posted. And the one Panic posted is a little too bland.
So yeah...MAKE MORE BANNERS PEOPLE!
I'LL MAKE SOME TODAY! I SWEAR!
:(
I liked Eggrolls and Linkmans Tetris.
stfu mine's really old. :(
If I can get my hands on Photoshop again, I'll send in some good ones. =/
[IMG]http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d84/DropDemDrawz/Other/catdx3-2.gif[/IMG]
I like Maian's as well as Eggroll's. I also like the Metroid one by Alastor.
I like:
Alastor's Halo banner
Alastor's SCII banner
Eggroll's Super Mario Sunshine banner
Linkman's Tetris banner
I love Egroll's Super Mario Sunshine banner the most.
Alastor's Halo banner is my favorite so far.
I like Alastor's Metr- Hell, do I even have to finish this sentence?
I might make a lame paint shop pro banner.

Okay, I'm pretty sure that mine sucks compared to everyone elses, but here it is.
It's Tales of Symphonia for those of you that haven't played the game.
Thanks NeXi. I really worked hard on that. I agree that its my best yet as well.
Yours isnt bad Sak. It beats the crap outta mine.
I prefer the Toad banner.
Would you like me to supply some pics, Panic?
If you want Arcadios. I'd appreciate it.
It's pink and has ****ty text. It won't win.
[url]www.dafont.com[/url]
Using stuff that doesn't look like Arial can do wonders. ;)
Editing the list now.
I did two more, Samurai Warriors and Tekken : Dark Resurrection this time.
Samurai who?
I like Stalolin's banner.
The color dosen't ruin it at all.
[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/bann0rz/soravgccopy.gif[/IMG]
sup
Alastor, mind me asking what font you used on your halo banner? Looks really good :o, tetris one is pretty classy.
Very nice, maian.
go to [url]www.dafont.com[/url] , and go to the Pixel Fonts.
Well, you should find one that looks like that. Like RS said, 1 or 2 pixel size. Do you know how to install fonts?
Very simple, still unfinished. I'll work the rest tomorrow.
...And yes, the cat is a placeholder.
No it isn't.
Ehh. Kind of original, don't think I pulled it off that great, but whatever :D
Hah, I love it. A guitar hero banner would be awesome.
Alright, another one.
[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v113/maian/metroidvgccopy.gif[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n161/FULLonPANIC/AnimaCrossing.gif[/IMG]
I have far too much time on my hands.
Another nice one by maian but Metroid is getting so old :(
maian's two are really nice. Hyper's Guitar Hero banner must be used!
[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v341/gushers13/VGCBANNER1.jpg[/IMG]
Mspaint of course.
I"d go with Maian's new banner....wins over Alastor's. ;)
Still working on another two...
Some of mine got messed up. I'll post them again ASAP.
EDIT: I accidentally moved two of my banners, so the links were broken. Here they are again if you feel up to fixing them Alastor.
[IMG]http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d84/DropDemDrawz/catdx3-2.gif[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d84/DropDemDrawz/catdx3.gif[/IMG]
EDIT: New one:
[IMG]http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n161/FULLonPANIC/Katamari.gif[/IMG]
maians Metroid banner was awsome.
Edit: i like the katamari one. but like roinkz said, it needs better text.
Panic: The Katamari Damacy banner is nice, but the text on it is **** awful.
So is the background, the katamari, and the outline of the prince :)
Yeah, stop it. There's enough people who are good at it that we don't need lame **** like that.
I made a bunch of New logos, they are pretty nice, in my opinon.
But after seeing how much everyone liked eggrolls, well I've decided not to even bother. So I guess I'm going to have to say I agree eggrolls is my favorite.
[IMG]http://www.mypixshare.com/images/283/2188/00000010.jpg[/IMG]
Here's one I didn't like so much, but I figured I would post it, since everyone else has.
As you should be.
Here's a Namine one by me, not like any of you care though.
_____
And Panic, keep making em. Don't let those jerks stop you from doing the banner contest. Your banners are fine, just because they're not up to Klarth and Vamp's standards doesn't mean that they suck.
_____
I did another one.
Ina from Samurai Warriors Xtreme Legends
_____
Looks like Alastor didn't see my Tekken one from before, so here it is again.
I care Sak. Its really nice.
Just a note: The banners should not be any bigger then they already are. And by the way, you can also talk to me if you want your list up there. I mod here, so I can do it just as easily.
You do that. It took me like 20 minutes to get all of those linked and stuff :(
Um guys, my Tekken and my Samurai Warriors Xtreme Legends were both put on the list twice.
I'm working on it. I was trying to keep them alphabetical, whereas maian just kind of tacked them on. It should be fixed now, I'm checking to make sure I didn't leave any links out.
Edit: The banners by Cruxis and Apathetic are too big, and haven't been listed. Apathetic's isn't too much bigger, though. Shrink it just a bit.
Well, I have decided to show you two more, and I also resized the last (which I don't care for)- Made all of these on my laptop, which has only so much photo stuff on it, my good stuffs at home on my PC.

Hmmmm, maybe a little bit sharper on the last one. It kinda gives me a headache. Its still kewl, though.
I like how Klarth used the artwork from the Kingdom Hearts manga. :)
Nicely done. :cool:

Ahem.
:D yeah I realized just a moment ago, that I should have increased the resolution aswell as the contrast.

FFX-2
I liked his template....but I think he should down load new content. Although this fall they are releasing the next version (3) so I assume he's waiting to get that (i know I am).

Second banner is Millia Rage from Guilty Gear XX.
Are we gonna vote on these in the end, or is Jesse just gonna pick the ones he likes?
I was discussing it with Maian, and the plan is that we're going to vote off some of the already present banners before we add new ones. The old ones are gonna be voted off in a poll, and the new ones are going to be decided through a tournament.
try not to forget about mine.....It's not a hard thing to do:(
:D /Jk
[quote=Klarth]Yours don't even qualify. They're too ****ing BIG.
If they are too big then Resize them for me then.
Dont you have PhotoShop Cruxis? Thats how you made them isnt it? You can resize them..
Just a suggestion.
[quote=Klarth]Second banner is Millia Rage from Guilty Gear XX.
Oh hell yes. And if you play with Millia then I'd probably fly over and give you oral right now.
Also, I'll probably redo the Megaman Zero one today and make it look cooler/notpink/bettertext/stillnotworthyofpraisebutcloser.
I think most of the old ones could be rid of.
But for now, just keep submitting. But, don't make them too big, and don't make too much. :(
wtf? I thought it would be just like last time. We have a preliminary, of course, since we already have over 20 entries. (Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think 20 is the maximum number of options for a poll.) Then we have them all in a multiple choice poll, then the 5/10/however many with the most votes win. Doing it in 1v1 polls seems kind of like a waste of time.
I agree with Alastor. Plus, it might give others a fairer chance.
Yes, but last time, SOMEONE whose name shall go unmentioned made 10+ puppet accounts with stupid names, logged into them with proxies so they wouldn't be traceable, and used them to vote for themselves. This is what I'd like to avoid :)
Couldn't the same happen, just in each face-off? Why not just look at the names and not count those that are there for the sole purpose of voting.
But a tournament is more fun :(
I don't really care what we do.
...Let's just do it soon. >_>
I like the idea of the tournament.
I like Vamp's way.
Let's make a poll to decide whether we'll make a poll or not! YEAH!
I like Klarth's way, it would make it interesting for me and I'm sure for others, too. Which way are we going to pick? And, when is it going to start?
Ehh, Alastor's way is fine. And since he organized this whole thing, we should go with it. :)
wow, how exciting
[quote=Klarth]Yes, but last time, SOMEONE whose name shall go unmentioned made 10+ puppet accounts with stupid names, logged into them with proxies so they wouldn't be traceable, and used them to vote for themselves. This is what I'd like to avoid :)
.....I wonder what kind of person would do that?:( .....(dasterdly Villian I bet!)....Well, I'm sure no one will be stupid enough to do something like that NOW since you mentioned it. So I have to agree with the Polls thingy, Maybe we could only allow people with a post count or rating of so and so (that way it is harder for someone to puppet).
Also I resized Them (Later I'll Fix the Resolutions)-

[IMG]http://www.mypixshare.com/images/283/2188/00000018.jpg[/IMG]
Now I can't tell what any of them are :)
:D Yeah, I've got to fix that little problem soon enough.
I've also made a few more (Sharper, sized & more intresting) I might post them sometime too.
On a side note; Do you think the name Gamingoverstock, happens to be a good choice of name for a company that sells NEW and USED games, consoles and assesories? just wanted to know, I'm starting a new business and need a good name to represent what I'm selling and to attract business.
Any idea on when the voting thing is gonna happen? Anyone?
ummm soon would be nice
Wow, soon! Sweet!
here's one more.
[IMG]http://www.mypixshare.com/images/283/2188/00000023.jpg[/IMG]
Don't bother, it's not going to win anyways :cookie:
I really like alot of the banners so far, maian's look good and so does Alastor's,Panic's,and Hyper's. but my fav one so far is MMZ by stalolin. FTW man!!
Plus the voting has already started.
[quote=Vampiro]Don't bother, it's not going to win anyways :cookie:
So true:big_bird:
If only I had access to my PC at home, I had some great programs on it.
My laptop (which is what I am using now) only has Windows Paint and and Jasc paint shop pro 2. I am actually suprised that I have been able to produce the banners I have already made, considering the fact, that I'm using this outdated stuff.
Wow. That is outdated.
Still, most people here still use Photoshop 7. We're not exactly up to date, either.
Yaw, but photoshop is better than a lot. Like PSP8 :(
