9th Anniversary Banner Contest
Do you count yourself as a capable graphic designer? Put your skills to the test and compete by submitting in the WH40K guild banner contest! Both photo- and art-edits as well as original artwork are encouraged. As with all contest entries, a submitted entry in any category will earn you one ticket for the Anniversary Raffle.
What are the categories and requirements?
The Guild Banner category is the primary category. The winning submission from this category will replace the thumbnail on the top right of all the guild pages. In order to qualify, this entry must be 40x200 pixels in order to fit the banner slot, and must contain the guild's name or an abbreviation. Animated banners are highly encouraged!
The Signature Banner category is the secondary category, albeit with more chances at prizes. All (appropriate) entries will be added to the Guild Banners thread. This entry must be sized to fit within Gaia signature limits (500x500 pixels maximum), may be animated, and must include the guild's name. Remember, this is what passers-by will see and will draw them in to join us at the guild!
You may make only one Guild Banner entry, and up to three Signature Banner entries, but will only receive one raffle ticket per category entered.
How do I enter?
Send your entry by PM to Commissar Victoria with the subject "Guild Banner Contest" or "Signature Banner Contest" respectively. You may enter both categories (meaning two potential raffle tickets).
What are the prizes?
The Guild Banner category is winner-takes-all: the winning entry will replace our banner in the top-right, and the winner will receive 100,000 gold!
The Signature Banner category winners will receive prizes as below:
First Place: 50,000 gold
Second Place: 30,000 gold
Third Place: 20,000 gold
Poll Winner: 20,000 gold
When do you stop taking entries?
The cutoff for entries is midnight on the night of Friday, 13 September. The poll will run from Saturday, 14 September through midnight on the night of Monday, 16 September. Results from both the judged entries and poll entry will be posted on Tuesday, 17 September.
Best of luck to all of you!
