Contest Prizes:
At least three winners will be selected out of all the banners by a panel of staff. However, if your banner sucks ass, even if we need 3, oh well.

1st: 100 Hath
2nd: 80 Hath
3rd: 60 Hath
4th: 40 Hath
5th: 20 Hath
In the event that more than 5 banners are chosen, each winner after 5th place will also receive 20 Hath.
Rules:
1.
Use the banner template found here: link (see below)*

3. Absolutely

4a. Accepting banners that exceed the the text horizontal recommendation will be at the discretion of the judges at voting time.
You have been warned.4b. Banners that move the text vertically will be disqualified.
5. Characters must either be from the same series (preferably in the same art style) or must be connected by theme (i.e. catgirls, christmas, bunnies, Airddragon, etc)
6. Don't put things greatly obscuring the logo.
7. Banner must be link as a PNG image file, preferably as a forum attachment.
8. Each person may only submit one banner, or we will use
the first one that appears in the thread9. You must understand that I love you all. Except Spectre. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)If you're not sure if it'll slide, ask in the thread before posting your entry, or look at past entries in this subforum.
Due:
November 25th (ish).
* The new banner template is in a PSD with the text isolated. In the workpaths I've included vertical limits (the text shouldn't be moving vertically regardless) and horizontal limit recommendations so you know how far you should be moving the text.
This spacing works best with even numbers of characters; split between each side, or three characters; two on one side and one on the other. I have also included PNG's of the banner with the text justified left, right, and center for those that can't open PSD's.

GoGoGo!

For anyone interested, mini-script that lets you test your banner without having to upload it somewhere first
Just open the main page, click on the logo, select the file and that's pretty much it
----edit----
By the way, new version of the banner test script since the old one was too clumsy and awkward:
Link:
https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?act=A...st&id=35776This one generates previews in place, no need to save the banner.
Just click on the stool-colored star in the top right corner of each post and then on the image you want to turn into a banner. Clicking on the star again should reverse any changes.
