THIRTY-SIX October 9th, 2008 2:10 AM

Err Zet…
  • All entries must be made during the SoTW time period. Previously made banners will be disqualified.
If all you did was add sotw… you may need to create another signature.

Zet October 9th, 2008 2:28 AM

well I did edit it a tad, but I'll change it

Phanima October 10th, 2008 9:04 PM

Anyone think of Kingdom Hearts and Halloween Town when they saw the theme? |D

Odd combination of themes but I do already have some ideas.

THIRTY-SIX October 10th, 2008 9:14 PM

My bad I have no idea when Halloween is… I thought it was the 14th. o.o'
It's just elements…

Loki October 10th, 2008 9:17 PM

I wasn't clear, it's totally my fault. xD;

YOU SAW NOTHING OF THE HALLOWEENY SORTS FOLKS. <_< Move on, nothing to see here~ *whistles*

Phanima October 10th, 2008 9:25 PM

Of course. I was dreaming. How silly of me.

Elements are good on their own.

I can always remember such things, in our country we dont have halloween but it's always 1 day after halloween we call it sint maarten but only thing we do is walking around with own made lanterns. We have that feast at 11th of november

Anyway im going off topic.. I think my sotw entry is too big :/

Edit:
new SOTW yaay ^.^ i thought this one would be my win but there are so many entries.. D: meh, i don't think i gonna win..

Would something like this be acceptable? :P (For people who know what is is)


THIRTY-SIX October 12th, 2008 2:13 AM

If you can transform it to suit:
Elements (by which I mean Fire, Water (which includes ice), Earth, and Wind). - YOOM-TAH
Entering that would just be plagiarism for Element skateboards. xP

YOOM-TAH October 12th, 2008 3:23 PM

Yeah there's a reason I put the disclaimer there, because I knew people would try to stretch it in some way to try to appear thoughtful.

There's plenty of ways to make something creative using the actual 4 elements. Trust me, that's why I picked it. Some of the most ingenious and inspiring art I've seen has involved elements. Especially water. Just think of how symbolic water is. It has been used to represent SO many things (life, birth, time, peace, etc.) Fire can represent different things too, such as power, death, war, light, knowledge... Wind can represent holiness/spirit, time, emptiness... Earth can represent life, motherhood, nature, power, growth, steadiness...

Just gotta think deeper. Then again, you can also just create really awesome effects with them too. :P

SotW stands for Signature of the Week.

It's where people make graphics with a theme that's given and people vote for who made the best graphics to portray the theme.

Argh. Why?.... Just, why?!?!

I have a concept I am working on for this sotw. Like YOOM-TAH said there are tuns of possibilities for a wonderful piece of art.

Gummy October 12th, 2008 6:54 PM

Can I use a heart as an element? According to Captain Planet, heart is as much an element as fire and water!

THIRTY-SIX October 12th, 2008 8:02 PM

He means the passion you can have in your heart.
Metaphors, and such.

36 Crazyfists album art. =D

YOOM-TAH October 12th, 2008 8:16 PM

I dunno, not sure if it's even up to me. I thought about that as I chose this theme, and I really didn't want it. I'm not sure why everyone always has to try and bend the theme as much as possible. Just go with what's given, you don't have to come up with something on the edge of the theme.

Maybe it's easier to win when you have a unique banner. This SOTW is bound to have your everyday elements from Pokemon, but someone can get creative with the periodic table or something.

THIRTY-SIX October 12th, 2008 9:26 PM

Haha, don't see why you can't do that… as long as you indicate with temperature… I guess. xD
Lateral thinking is what a designer should be doing. :<

You shouldn't be doing that to win, you should be doing that naturally. :<
Also my sig was unique in the final fantasy sotw… that only got one vote. xD

Yume Tsuki October 12th, 2008 9:37 PM

trying to say i have no good inspiration? >.>

meh anyway i hate my sotw entry..

THIRTY-SIX October 13th, 2008 2:10 AM

Just a question but do you guys want a dimension restriction on the sotw entries?
Also want the archive and sotw tags back?

Comic Tragedy October 13th, 2008 4:25 AM

Yea, I would appreciate it if you posted a new archive munna. I mean there is no reason to not display past winners.

As for dimensions, I would have to say no. I really think that limits me for some reason (even though I could probably just scale it down xD). Personally I am just thinking of you're "Kanto City Buildings" sotw entry, I think the size really added to that.

Yume Tsuki October 13th, 2008 5:03 AM

munna has a nice one :O maybe i vote for him?

YOOM-TAH October 13th, 2008 8:02 AM

Yeah, I figure people try to pick things on the fringe to make it stand out more. However, I pointed out plenty of things you can do with just the 4 things I mentioned that are VERY creative.

Yume Tsuki October 13th, 2008 8:57 AM

i know something :P a tree that goes on fire and gets flooded x) and flies up high by a cyclone
