I'll probably just stick them all in to be honest.

Though, no one's said it's me making the poll. Not sure I want to <whistle> Someone else can do it!

Don't stick my edits in <laugh> But a mod should definately make the thread.

Haha I won't don't worry, just make sure you say which the final ones are and all is good to go from there.


And I'm too poor to be anything but sober at the minute AB! Unfortunately! :(

I'll post it/them after the deadline to let you know <ok>

As long as the entrys work in all resolutions though, the guy who made the current banner paid attention to that and made sure all important stuff was in the centre (badge, players etc) and had less important stuff fading to white on the outsides so that for wider resolutions it looks fine too.
Also people making one should use the original as a template for the margins top & bottom as many of these ideas would have players heads cut off underneath the blue border at the top as well as the sides.

Looks like I've got more work to do. :D
 
The deadlines Sunday so I'm probably gonna let people find out exact dimensions and resolutions and sort my current banners out later.

Done this for the Shearer one I did, but thanks for reminding me to do it to the other one <ok>
 
If you install the Firebug addon for Firefox you can test your banner in place to see if/how you need to rearrange etc. Helps if you're able to fiddle with different screen resolutions too though, I've been using 1280width as minimum seeing as it's what the current banner maker did (rule of thumb is usually even lower - 1024 but anybody with that screen resolution in 2011 is usually busy collecting their pension or complaining about kids on their lawn anyway so the hell with that).
