EoFF Classic Banner Competition 2006

[Jess]

I love the Vivi one, minus the border.

[Khaotic]

O.o; Hmm.. I may give this a shot when I get some free time.

I'm going to be a party pooper and say that everyone's in a rut of putting various characters half-transparent behind the logo. It's looking like people take the feedback for other people's banners and try to incorporate it into their own, thinking that it will make a great banners as it has everyone's feedback, but now they all look alike.

Try doing something different, rather than having 10,000 copies of faded characters behind the EoFF text, like BoB mentioned earlier. I hacked together a banner with a couple of characters interacting with the text as an example.

In summary, quit making every single banner contain faded characters behind the EoFF text.

[Madonna]

A little different.

[Loony BoB]

Definitely an interesting version.

If people are thinking "But what can we put aside from characters!?" - think logos of the various FF's, eyes (note that the current banner has an eye!) and the like. I don't think FF characters should be void from the banner by any means but I do think that Mulley is right when he says to think different.

Howver, personally, I don't like Lynx's because of the text. The rest of the banner I quite like.

EDIT: This banner came second last time around...

Can someone tell me the code of this skin's colour?. I have been trying to find the colour but faild. You know like white is FFFFFF.

The #FFFFFF value that HTML uses is the RGB hexadecimal representation of 255, 255, 255 (255 = FF). So it's the same as FF, FF, FF.

Let's convert C8C8E6 for an example.

If you ever want to convert the color values from a web page to an image editor, open up the calculator on your computer and make sure it's in scientific mode. Click on the "Hex" (for hexadecimal) radio button and punch in the value, C8. Then click the "Dec" (for decimal), and it will give the decimal value: 200. Thus for C8C8E6 is 200, 200, 230.

And if you want to find out what color a screen has on it, you can also do a screen shot and take a color sample in an image editor. That's what I usually do.

<b>EDIT:</b> Did you delete your post Owen?

[Breine]

A little different.

I really like that you've used some older characters. They are really needed in the other banners. Old-school is good, people!

I also like Rye's quite a lot, although it only has newer characters in it.

[Owen Macwere]

Oh, yes. I figured out the colour stupid me just could save part of the skin and take the colour from. :riiight:
Thanks for this explaination bantam, it tought me something new.

I redid the Vivi one and made it blue this time, so cheggit:





I prefer the first one, 'cause it's more vibrant and alive, but, thoughts are welcomed.

[Flying Mullet]

Here's a random one:

[DK]

The sword T is an awesome touch there, Chad.

[XxSephirothxX]

Modified and (imo) much improved:


Invincible eye variation:


Too bright, too dark? Comments would be appreciated.

[Flying Mullet]

I like the Invincible eye there, as it is <b>Eyes</b> on Final Fantasy. Gotta get those puns in.

[DK]

The text on both of them looks bad, but otherwise Azzies are both good.

[XxSephirothxX]

I really don't know where to go with "bad."
