Looking for a skilled Graphic Artist - [Gaming Banner]

[••Gaming.Boards.net••]

Izanigi
Completed this project
- Request complete!

Thanks !



Hello - Have a look at www.GamingBoards.net

I would like someone to create a banner for the homepage to replace what I've made myself.

I would like it to say GamingBoards.net and express a gaming community.

The same size as the banner I currently have, I would like a professional image. This Forum means the world to me since I founded it in 2005, I really am trying to start something big here and each addition must be perfect(No pressure! ). The banner is the first thing a visitor is going to notice, so I really would like the banner to strike them with a professional gaming community feeling. 



Thank you so much in advance, I look forward to seeing what ideas are presented!

Anxiously awaiting,
DanthEx

---- SO what I do is use Google Search and type: "Game Title" transparent characters ---


This way you get ones you can work with easily, but hopefully above gives you enough to make something cool

Have your pick! But please include atleast one from each game - Thanks!

(Oh and don't forget to add 'GamingBoards.net')

Thank you so much.

You should give a bit more detail as to the size, colors you want used, any particular font you want and as much detail as you can.

Hey Tumbleweed, I usually do; but I feel that I may be holding someone actually skilled back from creating an image that comes to their mind after visiting and browsing my forum. I really do want to leave the entire thing up to the creator.

Could you maybe give me more of a description of what you would like to see here? It would make it a lot easier for me. And I would like the current width percentage of your board. Thanks, and I will see what I can do for you.

Hey - Thanks a lot of taking this on! My current forum width is 80%.


I would like to see a banner that says 'GamingBoards.net' (without the . between)

Something that looks professional and clean. But creative and with some 'snazz'.

I Pm'ed you with a few banners that I find visually appealing.

Okay so here's what I have so far. I found the World of Warcraft banner for anyone's use on Forumotion's support board. The text is Perfect Dark from dafont.com .

Is there anything you want me to add specifically?? I can change the color of the text, I can change the way it is text wrapped, I can add some image in there if you'd like me to, I could add a bigger border around the image, so what sounds good to you?

The text wrap can be one of the following:

SPOILER: Click to show

Arc(Current)
Arc Lower
Arc Upper

Arch
Bulge
Shell Lower
Shell Upper

Flag
Wave
Fish
Rise

Fisheye
Inflate 
Squeeze
Twist

I wasn't for sure on the color for this. Do you have a color you would want in mind for this??? 

I can also add a shadow as well if you like.

Hey! So far so good, I would like the GamingBoards.net to be a little more clear with a bit of a professional looking touch, the font almost looks cheap if you know what I mean - other than that - so far I love it! Could you add characters from our other games? Like RuneScape, League of Legends, Steam/Console based games. Really looking for something as High-def as possible.

Basically I'm looking for a banner that will show we are a forum of all types of gamers. And take it seriously with a professional image.

 Thanks !

Did this before you made the edit to your post, but... Figured I might as well show it to you lol.

So how do you want the other games incorporated into this, or do you want me to start allover? I'm not very good with freedom, I like being told exactly how people want it XD.

Hey!

 No problem, I will try to help -- I sent you a few images in PM that could give you an idea.

But if you could have characters from each game posing side by side with some neat background(like you have here), and GamingBoards.net on the side in nice lettering that doesn't look cheesy/cheap, I think that could look really cool!

Thanks to Izanigi for taking on this job!

Still need someone for this job - If anyone has PROVEN work - I WILL pay for the right graphic. (Obviously a reasonable price)

Bro I never said I wasn't gonna do it, just trying to decide what would be right for your site.

Okay so here's what I did, tell me what revisions you want made, or like switches of the order, and I will do so. keep in mind this is in no way the finished design, just getting your new idea out there. 

EDIT: Just noticed the black shadow looked really bad, gonna fix that.
