I'm pretty sure someone used to do these a long way back, but I'm not sure I remember who, otherwise I would give them credit for me reviving this idea.

What is this contest all about? Well I'll be providing a base banner, which you will then have to work with (no matter how horrendous my blending skills are) by adding effects, but you must use the banner that I posted.

This round's banner is: Elven Waybread

Image

Rules:
1. You may NOT blend in other photos to the banner - the banner above is the only picture you are allowed to use.
2. You may add any effect on the banner to modify it, including: textures, brushes, colouring, patterns, text, etc.


Contestants:
1. Haldir *
2. Nurr *
3. Gimli
4. Ennostiel *
5. DamsonRhee *
6. Ammy *

* = Entry in

Deadline:
March 6, 2011


Here's my result, to give you guys an idea:

Awesome Nurr! Anyone else interested in doing this? I realize the forum traffic is significantly slower than it used to be, but I know there's still some of you out there who can make fine banners out of this. : )

Yep, I'm in. :D Deadline is looking good as well as there is so much stuff going on here now graphics wise, I'm struggling with all the due dates. :teehee:

I wish I could make things faster. :P

And I hadn't figured out animated banners. :duh:

Here you go! Overprocessed it a little bit. Couldn't get the colors quite right.

No worries! You still have 3 days. I can also extend it if anyone needs me to. :) I've been really busy as well, therefore also really backlogged on graphics *eyes request thread guiltily*

And lovely entry Ammy!
