Well, the Studio has two banners for v1 already. So why not more? That's right. We're challenging all the designers out there: Design a new banner for v1 of the Studio. What we're planning to do is incorporate a banner changer that'll allow you to change the banner for v1 to a banner of your choice. But the thing is, we only have two now. We want to populate this with well-designed banners. Heck, you can even add your own name to it as a copyright if you wish. Now, onto the layout of the competition. RequirementsI realize this can be fairly restricting, and I apologize, but these are what are set and will remain that way for now. If they are changed, you all will be notified.Height: 120-160px Width: 750px File Types: JPG/JPEG or GIF PrizesYou may choose between any of the listed prizes below if you are deemed a winner. You also get a semi-fancy winner's sig and a custom title of your choice. If you have an additional prize to suggest, post it in this thread.- A preview of SZv2 - A custom code by me JudgingRight now, the actual sheet that will be used to judge your banner is being developed. It will be released later this week. Watch this thread for updatesJudges: Joe and Kay How to WinWell, the obvious answer is "Be picked by the judges", but there's more to it then that. First things first, there will be two official "winners", meaning, two people can claim prizes and be deemed "winners". But does that mean the banners of those who didn't "win" will be wasted? Yes and no. Depending on the quality of the banner, Joe will decide whether or not the banner should be included in the changer, so try your hardest.Previewing Your BannerIf you would like to preview your banner, change the skin to v1 and slap this in your URL bar and hit enter.
javascript:document.getElementsByTagName("img")[0].src="URL OF YOUR BANNER";void(0); Submitting a bannerTo submit your banner, send it in a PM to myself. You have 'til the deadline to change your entry. And speaking of which, the deadline will be the Studio's birthday: August 20th at 6:00 PM CST (-6 GMT).Any questions? Post 'em here. This thread is also the official discussion thread. - Chris

Also, just to throw out a detail about the prize:
For the custom code, you can pretty much remove any of the rules listed in the request board. That's why its special. There's a few exceptions still (like, I won't do a RPG or some admin editables).
