Kai NRG Posted October 2, 2019 Here's the beginning of a Cat A entry. I like to WIP my digital designs so if anyone has suggestions I'll be glad to consider them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roadmonkeytj Posted October 5, 2019 Its been discussed and the deadline is being extended two additional weeks to allow for more entries as we only got 2 Cat A entries and no cat B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wellesley Posted October 7, 2019 Well, I'm going for a Cat B then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wellesley Posted October 7, 2019 First thing I did was to create a map with all the flags I could find as a background layer. You can use this for your own designs, if you want. Just PM me for the transparent version, flickr adds the white background automatically. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kai NRG Posted October 7, 2019 Really cool idea there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kurigan Posted October 15, 2019 Submission for Cat A Top Banner Sorry again @Kai NRG, but entries seem a bit thin on the ground so I might as well toss it in the ring, eh? Imitation, flattery and all that, what? Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kai NRG Posted October 15, 2019 While we're at, I've updated mine so here's the latest (and probably last) version: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Professor Thaum Posted October 15, 2019 the @Kai NRG banner is much more colored so better for a forum, but my favorite is @kurigan's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kurigan Posted October 18, 2019 Just a though, on the 18th, as I sit on my "coffee break" wondering what's going to come of this: It honestly doesn't look like much. Thankfully there are these entries to get something going on so the effort isn't a loss. I bet if you kept it going, more entries would inspire others to jump on board, much like @Kai NRG did for me. With that in mind, why not transition this to a guild/college just for generating promotional artwork for the game? I'd suggest pinning a submissions thread and have a floating discussion thread for WIPs and advice (much like the Shipwrights Guild Hall). An archive of useful images and elements might be handy as well (though I really don't want to volunteer to maintain it myself either ) I've got a few more ideas myslef, for CAT B too, but just haven't had time to materialize them; it just takes time and that's a commodity I'm short on.

Kai NRG Posted October 18, 2019 I've got a loose idea for Cat B too that I think could be really cool, but don't expect to have time for it soon. It seems to me that Cat A is kind of a one time (or once in a long time) thing since presumably the banner is meant to be used as a banner; but having some sort of ongoing Cat. B might be a good idea? On the other hand I would still not have done a Cat. A entry if it weren't for the deadline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roadmonkeytj Posted October 23, 2019 Ok All the pole is posted I will leave it up for a couple weeks! Also since there was interest in Cat B but none completed the Cat B deadline has been extended till Nov 13. Cat A is currently closed but definitely will keep the idea of future banners open, so we dont get a stale bunny feeling lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wellesley Posted October 23, 2019 Was a hard decision, but I liked @Kai NRG's entry the most. Thanks to all who put some work into this challenge. I won't get my Cat B entry done soon, but as long as no one submits one, I'll continue with it. Maybe even, if someone beats me to it, as some advertising will always come in handy.
