Right! I made a few changes, most unnoticeable but to the trained eye, the most obvious of which are the fonts! So, here's redo number one:![]() I decided it seemed a bit dead, so I tried adding some energy to it: ![]() But there seemed to be something missing... Oh, WAIT! I KNOW! I KNOW! PICK ME! PICK ME! ...pokemon :P So, seeing a spot to be filled and knowing the perfect way to fill it, I give you: ![]() But work was still to be done! For the lines had become slightly too strong. So I fixed them!: ![]() or with slightly different font: ![]() Well, I tried. Those are just a few iterations, I'm sure I could try other things but I can't really be buggered to start from scratch right now. I might take a totally new stab later. Once again, more feedback is welcome and encouraged! It's a work in progress... |

Why is nearly everyone bending the rules? I hope one that hasnt bend them is not our banner. Can everybody read the competetion post closely, she did say about the colours and to have the words "Tohea Region" in the banner. Im not pointing at you jean, so if you're worry don't. But I do say maybe make it more the tohea skin colour and that would be much better. |

Two reasons. For one, it doesn't make that big of a difference (to me, at least) whether the text says "Tohea Region" or "Tohea RPG". Ostensibly it doesn't matter to a lot of others either. Secondly, many different colors can fit this current skin, and a banner that 'pops' out at you isn't really a bad thing. By the way, I can read. . .albeit poorly. :]
Wait, wha~? "I hope one that has not bent them is not our banner." So basically you're saying that you want one that bent the rules to be our banner? |

@ jean: the ones without that motion blur are pretty good, though the pokemon is kinda out of place...it looked alot better to me before you put it there. The over 2000 font and the top phrase is really hard to read. it must be that blue or something...that and the phrase above the title is hard to read cause yellow on red, is a very hard combo to pull off. Both are warm colors and attract the eye for different reasons. Placing the phrase there pulls the eyes away from the title, and makes you read "are you ready for yours?" first. Usually titles are big bold catch your eye things that the eyes goto first. and the phrase usually just one, is under it. As for the rest of it you already know i love the layout as it is. Theres no need for a motion blur or that pokemon. Its just working on the color scheme of the font and the size and placement to get it just right for the viewer to say...wow, thats one banging banner! |

Neil, if you'll carefully read the first post, it does not mention rules. There are suggestions, Runea implores it to have several things, but there are no rules. The banner "should" have this or "should" have that. It's very flexible, and was made that way for a reason. To paraphrase from Pirates of the Caribbean, "They're not so much rules as they are...guidelines." If Runea sees a problem with a banner, you can trust, surely, that she won't choose that one. No-one is breaking any rules because there really aren't any, haha. |

*pokes head in* A lot of you guys are really talented. I like Zero's fourth one, and Jeanesse's second. All of Scribb's are awesome; some great work there. Those are really the only ones I remember. Not that my opinion really accounts for much, but I think they'd all make great banners. |

I like RocketMeowth's it looks cool, especially the brushing/stock (can't tell if it is a render or it's a brushing. Scribbyz' is simply superb, all of them. Although, Scribbyz, it looks good, I would suggest adding a small render of a Pokémon in the bottom left hand corner. The two renders and the text on the right side make the banner look unbalanced. Great job everbody! |

After feeling pretty angry after the lack of comments on my last banner. I decided to put some real effort in this time. I also developed I rivalry in graphical knowledge with scribbyz. When you say rare candies, you can really get me going! ![]() My entry for the Tohean Teams Banner. Comments are more then welcome. EDIT: This is my best work to date me thinks. I was wondering if I can join the graphics team also. Can I? |
