RussTCB Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Competition law requires that people that have supported this website financially or work for this website, even if it not for a fee, are not allowed to enter.So if you fall in this category, I would leave itHuh? Competition law (Aka, antitrust law) prevents trusts.... It stops monopolies from big companies... It has nothing to do with contests on a forum.OK, that's what u thought. Thank you for clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacardimayne Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I love how the one legitimate entry doesn't have a single vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nambis Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I love how the one legitimate entry doesn't have a single vote.no one should be voting until after the submission deadline anyhow. how can people vote if they don't even know what the options are? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacardimayne Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Because you can vote/like for more than one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highvoltage Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 If Bacardi wins, and I hope he does, I hope you guys have the balls to stick to what you guys said. Seriously.No, we're obviously not going to give it to a joke entry. Expected to see a few, and I hope to see a few more though.this idea was proposed before and nothing happened. I was originally told the banner was only temporary.Like GN'R, promises made and yet nothing happens. (sigh)It was only supposed to be temporary.Unfortunately the last contest didn't really have a prize, so we didn't get any particularly good submissions. I'm hoping that this might get us a few entries of a professional standard. Because you can vote/like for more than one.Only one will be counted per member.But for entries that are obvious jokes, like away. Not going to count those likes as votes, so it's all good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troccoli Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 This is probably extremely ignorant, but where can we see submissions and how do we vote on them? Or are we not there yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liers Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 This is probably extremely ignorant, but where can we see submissions and how do we vote on them? Or are we not there yet?They're posted in this thread, you vote by "Liking" the post with the entry you want to win. 1 vote per person, 3 entries per person.

I don't even know if I will submit though anyway, but if I don't it won't be because of an American law I can say that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estranged Reality Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Something to consider guys: the item can attract a significant fee, so you could hire a graphic designer and still break profit. i don't think anyone would have the initiative to do this anyway, but i just wanted to say i'd consider this to be a bit disingenuous and kind of an undermining of the whole point behind the contest. i'd prefer to see actual forum members submit stuff they made. if some third party professional designer made the banner it would kinda take some of the fun out of the whole thing. that's just my opinion though. and i think it's kind of a moot point because i doubt many people here would do that anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highvoltage Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 ^ all that, plus this way the community gets to be involved in picking a winner. This is more fun and it puts the item in reach of someone willing to dedicate some time to the cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) Threw some photos I took together quickly just to give a rough sketch of what I envision for the banner, will have to teach myself Photoshop to blend it all in/colour correct but should be fun:Quick blurring and desaturating test:Banner + Logo:Banner + Logo (Red):Sepia + Star (will use star for logo): Edited April 20, 2014 by Amir 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highvoltage Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 That's cool Amir! Try to keep any "progress" in one post where possible to make it easier for voting. Seperate entries (3 maximum) can go in different posts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtle Signs Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) If anyone wants my vote your design better have the AFD five in it. Edited April 20, 2014 by xGNRxSTARx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbhutto Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Hmmm, throwing around some ideas for the banner, what's the consensus on this font tho:I guess it's sposed to be Blade Runner-ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 If anyone wants my vote your design better have the AFD five in it.If I had any photos of Duff or Izzy I'd include them, only managed a couple of shitty shots of Izzy at the London 2012 shows.

It was more of a light-hearted jab at pulling an MSL-style heist, than an actual point. But OK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
