The first competition, I think, has been a disaster for everyone. - Rule 1 - Dimension is 500 x200.
- Rule 2 - Stock is not permitted with one major exception: the official Paint.NET logo is permitted in this competition. Everything must be 100% done in PDN!
- Rule 3 - Only 1 entry per person! You are allowed to edit the entrant based on the constructive criticism (see below).
- Rule 4 - Constructive criticism will be allowed, but please, please keep it to a minimum. We don't need fighting to start again, and I don't need to be put in a bad mood again.
- Rule 5 - Your entrant must be new. That way, it will prevents repetition, and I want to see what we all have learned...
Deadline: 1 week from today, which would be February 21, and the competition ends at midnight, Eastern Standard Time, which mean the clock rolls to February 22, any entrants after that date will be automatically disqualified. |

Some nice design's there people.
Will try to upload mine.
As you can see I stayed with basic design and tweaked the text.

Wow, some very nice new designs are up. Helen, a bit of a suggestion, the highlight could use a bit of tone down, just a thought, and it looks like the text's a bit rough around the edge.
Hey, Manc, where's yours? I don't see it up.

Yes. Edit: Here's my entry. I think it's missing something, the 'IT' factor, thoughts?  |

Here's my entry:  It started off as an attempt at doing a submarine - thereafter it is anybody's guess! ;D |

Some excellent entries so far. I`ve got three on the go but can`t make my mind up which one to enter! Lance I think maybe you chose the wrong font. It needs to be more like your sig so I think a chunkier one would be better. Also I think the colours are a bit dark. It needs brightening up a bit.  |

Boy, oh boy! Great entries & so many different takes on the theme.
Lance, I think you are right about your entry. There is not enough happening at the bottom of the banner. Maybe fade out the top? Also there is an imbalance of space - the space between PDN & fans is good but it needs the same amount at the edges.
Sidneys, yours has a remnant of white on the red fans text.
Ventor, the text needs to be a bit darker but I like the concept & the colour.
I've noticed the text on all of them is a bit jaggy. I'm using the Beta version & noticed that immediately.
Manc, not seeing yours either.
I'm not sure if the overall text placement in mine is ok but more importantly, the PDN size & placement on top of the Fans bit. So any feedback would be most appreciated.

Excellent work all! Helen, for unknown reasons that really catches my eye! And Lance, on my screen that looks like a photograph! Excellent job!
Have a nice day,

I'm not gonna enter this comp,maybe nextime. I do think,to make it fair,you should vote only once and preferably not for yourself. I will vote,and may the best image win. Lance,I think your image is a bit dark and probably the wrong colour,(even though I hate to admit it) would look better red.  Just a thought,could be wrong.  |

 Here's what I did. Does the text seem jaggy? |

Love the idea Sarkut, and the text looks fine. I'd suggest toning down the sand noise just a little.  Manc, I disagree. Two votes perhaps, but not one. (One would just result in most of the images getting one vote) I do agree with you on Lance's image though.. Green has never really been a representative color of our forum. Just a suggestion, Lance Have a nice day, ~Sidneys1 |

Well after much deliberating and umming and arrring I`ve decided to enter this one.Still not sure about the splodges of white paint though. What do you think? -  |

Post by Sarkut on Feb 17, 2011 19:21:02 GMT
You could have some driblets of white paint depending from the text to explain the splodges.
