GutterClown - November 12, 2005 04:13 AM (GMT)
Blood, this forum allows swearing, BUT most dont like swearing\cursing in graphics. go as close to the line as you can, but dont go over.
we want people to see our graphic, no ban it ;)
{HR}Blood - November 12, 2005 09:04 AM (GMT)
will do gclown...
I said its a poor quality... never expected it to get big and go around other forums for it to influence... but I'll change it

Arg.... CANT... CONTAIN.... ASSHOLE OPINION.... ANY LONGER!
Sorry guys, but uh... Maybe you should stick to something... Sleeker.... And less.... Animated.... Cus those bars.... All suck. I doubt I could do any better, but shit... If I saw ANY of those bars, I would never even come to this board had I not been recruited by evilnoah himself. :(
I mean, they are fine for recruiting un-experienced gfx designers, but for more experienced people who can actually help people learn something.... Those are a no-go. Sorry, but the truth hurts. :S&M:
(I know there are gonna be about 6 people that curse me out for this, BUT GOD DAMN IT IM BEING FUCKING HONEST! IM TRYING TO FUCKING HELP! :FYOU:)
Headshot - November 28, 2005 03:19 AM (GMT)
Ok, well your opinion has been made. I am just going to put this out here now, because I don't want anything to start. Do not start a long flame war. I know it happens on accident, but I just wanted to say something here. I don't want to have to close the topic early, and have a few people get jipped from entering.
Also, simon. Did you fix that tag? The misspelling? I would do that, if you still have the .psd. Since the new deadline was extended.
XsatanX - November 28, 2005 03:25 AM (GMT)
Yeah, no asshole-ness intended. Just trying to point out that examples are sometimes helpful. (Erm... Examples being sleek, simple, maybe 45-60 pixel high ad bars, as most of the best I've seen are.)
The ones that are here are just very chunky looking. They are bulky and assault my eyes with odd colors. The animation doesnt help that on some. Try to look at some of the good ad bars from some of the larger more active GFX sites, and use them as the basis of yours. (i probably should have posted this sooner.)
I you want to flame me, do it in private in a PM. I dont recomend it though. I have the massive tendancy to "assault with the tounge."
GutterClown - November 28, 2005 02:33 PM (GMT)
yeah, i KNOW mine sucked, i wasnt doing it as a final, i was simply adding some ideas for others.
i was frug ducked at the time, so you know how it is...
Headshot - November 28, 2005 10:59 PM (GMT)
Heh, if you don't like it, go ahead and re-enter a new one. :D
I might add one here. I have not really opened up photoshop lately.

Headshot - December 19, 2005 12:07 AM (GMT)
I would rather you have one entered, that way the stakes are even for everyone. Each person has 1 entered. So which one of those 2 do you want included in the poll?
GutterClown - December 19, 2005 01:39 AM (GMT)
hmm.. true true.
well, i've worked at least 7 hours on the new one, so i'll chuck it in.
anyway... some people are using the other one already, so im not worried.
Modified:

GutterClown - December 19, 2005 03:22 PM (GMT)
