GFX Competition! Win 1 Year of RapidShare! [Bumped]

rlsloggg1.png

Well, since Lost just got released a while ago I thought I’d grab your attention while you’re all here (sneaky right?). We’ve had a few competitions in the past and we’ve always gotten a great response from all our lovely readers, so I thought of a new one for you all.

Basically what I’m looking for is a new banner for the Dark theme on the RLSLOG Forums. I like the old banner which Flawz edited together for me (much love), but I think its time to go for something simpler, more iconic. The following requirements NEED to be met in order to even give you the chance to win this competition:

  1. The banner needs to have the right dimensions. The height needs to be exactly 127 pixels. The width must be between 550 pixels and 800 pixels. Feel free to send in larger resolution images, but they must be resizable to the right dimensions.
  2. The banner should blend in with the forum. The way we did it with the current theme was that we have the main banner image, and then a tiny image which repeats itself to make it look like a line which continues no matter what size your screen is. Be creative, but its very important that it all looks slick. The colours should fit in with the theme as well (Dark_RLSLOG), but this dosen’t mean you can only use blue and black.
  3. The banner should be a logo. Something like “RLSLOG”, “Releaselog” or “RLSLOG Forums” must be included. You may use the font which is used for the logo here on the mainsite, but its not a requirement (Download Font: mirror#1, mirror#2).

Remember that often the simplest designs are the nicest. Take a look at the winner of our Birthday Competition.

The winner of the competition will win a 1 YEAR Premium Rapidshare account (courtesy of our generous member ThatOneGuy from the #rlslog channel). I will choose the winner. Important: If nothing suitable is sent in, nobody will win! But don’t worry about that, I believe in you all.

The competition will end in ONE WEEK (Friday the 23rd of May), so make sure you don’t procrastinate.

Send as many entries as you like to: forums.rlslog[at]gmail.com

    Anyone have a tutorial on how the tiny image made the line that made the main banner appear to continue? I’ve always seen those but never quite understood the design and placement.

    @ Sagara

    You make the image you want to span across the background image in the table then you place your banner image on top of it. I’m sure you can find a tutorial on google.

    why are you all posting your entries here. People might steal your ideas.. :P I’m not gonna post mine :)

  57. Bluestar
    May 17th, 2008 | 20:41

    I think its hard to win this (or any) competition with stolen ideas… if someone doesn’t have enough creativity and imagination, he/she won’t be able to do a fascinating and unique art – so skills aren’t enough. :P

  61. Bluestar
    May 18th, 2008 | 12:27

    you just need to hit another Enter on the URL after its fully loaded (don’t refresh, cuz’ that way the referer will also sent to the imageshack.us, and it seems rlslog.net domain is banned)

  62. Cremo
    May 18th, 2008 | 14:43

    well i might do something in 3d, since my last entry (birthday com.) made it pretty high (2nd) ;)

    May 20th, 2008 | 23:31

    all that competition stuff is nice and all but you guys could post some releases too, i.e. Rambo 720p BluRay x264-REFiNED is pretty neat, i watched it couple hours ago and the quality is excellent (like all hd x264 rips…) and it even has DTS audio

    May 20th, 2008 | 23:55

    @81 – you don’t seem to get it – those are old posts, this has been ‘bumped’ as staff explained the post before yours.

    @85 – duh?! – see above – the ‘lost’ reference is from when this was originally posted

  85. HAAAAAA
    May 20th, 2008 | 23:57

    The real sneaky thing is that this post is [bumped]!!???!!!
    What the hell does this supposed to mean? I mean ok I got it now, but maybe I m not the brightest but what non com-geek would know what [bumped] means, really guys……not everyone is a know all the short forms wize guy…..

    May 21st, 2008 | 00:26

    is it just me or have these last few days been SLOW as far as the XViD releases? i did see earlier that ‘The Oxford Murders’ with Elijah Wood was pre’d a few hrs ago

    i used to think bumped meant under the influence of a moderate amount (a bump) of a powder / crystalline drug such as cocaine or amphetamines – i haven’t had a bump myself for about 5 yrs

    keeping my fingers crossed for some R5s in the next few days

  92. joe@mama.com
    May 21st, 2008 | 00:49

    i have to say that

    #45 – BlueStar
    #71 – Elclanrs

    are by far the best, although over half of the entries here are banned imageshack, so we didn’t get to see all of them…

    oh BTW it seems ReeGed and I were both right:

    But what I want to know is why I havnt seen any change in the format to rlslog. I was wondering if they actually used any of the graphics submitted. I was looking forward to a change to the rlslog pages look :(
