A little more than an hour or so, once I got used to working with the font. (At the risk of giving too much info to my competition: It's called "Star Jedi", and I found it using a Google search.)

I'm using Paint Shop Pro 7.04.

 

Question: Who's going to be the judges for this contest?

Posted

All pathetic programs. I'm using Adobe Photoshop 6.

 

 

Don't worry, my banner is coming...

 

hmm. Will that banner support... flash? heh heh heh...

Posted

I have Photoshop 5.5 and Illustrator 8, but I like PSP better.

Flash, eh? Now I'm curious...

 

(PS- I hope yer not gonna host the image on Angelfire when you're done. :p)

wake up, Ikhnaton. Flash is built for low speed connections. It even has options that the user can select for lower frame rate animation for max proformance. Hundreds of sites use it, and it is THE MOST COMPATABLE anim software out there.

 

The FLASH engine is based on sprites, rather than frmes, to create a 4 or 5 small files on the users computer which are then animated, rather than 500-700 frames that take up tons more space. thusly, flash is a very realistic and valuable idea. The software is not $500 for nothing...

S1, next time try it with a little more respect.

 

 

I say ixnay on the flash because there are a fair number of people out there, myself included, who dont' like a lot of activity on the page.

Ike, i want to know if i can use flash. if the flash files will work on the banner.

 

Its not gojng to be super crazy animated, ok? Just give me a chance. I just want to know if this board source can use it.

I'm sure it CAN handle flash, but I DEFINITELY would not recommend it. Some visitors and members here don't even have Flash, and loading the forums everyday would only be a nuisance to them. I highly recommend using simple GIF or JPG files :D

Agrees with Red... Saber, it's best just to do a jpeg... I know flash is better and faster and everything... but arguing with Ike isn't gonna help... just make a damn good banner and become a mod dammit!... DO IT!... :D ...I really want a regular at rs.net to become a mod...

Modship is one of the possible prizes that Ike dangled in front of our noses back when there were no real entrys in the contest.

Posted by Ike:

I can see there is a lot of interest in this project. :rolleyes:

 

How about if i up the ante and say that I am considering a Mod position for the winner?

 

C'mon Saber, I want to see your take on it!

As a professional graphic artist, I'm sure you can clean all our clocks.

I'm just loving the fact that I now have something to do that justifies owning all this software. :D

 

Here's try #3:
