What size would they need to be?  I'm sure a square pic wouldn't work for example

Electrical Engineers do it on impulse, with faster rise times, with more power, and less resistance at higher frequencies, without shorts, until it Hertz

The banner we have now is 910 x 117. So you're most likely fine if it is that size or smaller.

Also, I assume the 'photo must be taken by you" rule isn't in effect for this contest?

Here's one entry for the time being. I can't find the rights to the image I used in the first banner so I won't submit it.

I agree this should be open to whatever someone feels they have the time to make.

Bump for this!  We need banners!!! 

Also, we're planning to make membership cards, so a very small logo would be awesome!  They'll be used for raffles, showing club membership at group buys, discount entrance to the frag swap, etc.

Bump to the top. We need banners and some creative thinking. We had a lot of responses to wanting to change the banner. We only have 1 to chose from right now. We can also use these for club membership cards and different logos for things like the frag swap.

So does this contest include the banner and the small logo?

If so, what size/ratio does the small logo need to be?

Na the small logo can be done later or now. Im not sure what size it needs to be. Nikki is working on the membership cards, she will need to answer that.

Pfffftttt, no silly...I plan to learn it in a couple hours!  :laugh:

Eh, I'm just going to play around with it for a while..see what I can come up with.  If I don't post anything, assume I got bored - not that I couldn't figure it out.  :laugh:

Update - ok, Photoshop is just really boring.  I made a pretty clownfish in it, but can't figure out how to export it...and don't feel like taking the time.  I'm off to play with fishy stuff and will leave the graphics stuff to the graphics people.  ;)
