Forum Banner Designs Wanted!

Hi everyone~

Dobie's already been coming up with some designs, but we'd like to open up the floor to all aspiring artists/graphic-makers. If you'd like to see your design possibly being the new banner for 2013 on Xana's Lair, submit your design to this thread. Banners should be the same size as the existing banner (not sure of the dimensions, will edit with those later).

No deadline for this just yet since we're still working on more behind-the-scenes things, but soon we'll compile all the designs together and everyone can vote for their favourite.

Thanks and happy creating!

The XL Staff

Ok, I think I'm going to submit this one for my entry.



Also, the dimensions for the banner (in pixels) are 600x160.

Seriously Dober?

How many good banners do you make until we have no choice but to use them?

I think this forum banner puts my digital creativity skills to SHAME. xD

Sorry Atlas... I like practicing my design skills, so this is the result. Also, it would be cool to see what other people had in mind for the banner.

My first shot at this banner. First Draft.

Really cool Peace!

As a sort of open invitation, I'd like to get banners of all shapes and sizes. We're in the process of having XL's theme change, so a lot of different colors and such would be awesome.

I have absolutely no talent in this area, but I love to see all the different banners!

Love them both so far

I really like yours, PK! It's got a lot of movement, due to the background, which is awesome. The color scheme and logo are also very nice.

My only issue with your's, PK, is that the words are a bit spliced. don't know if you can fix that, but I figured I'd point it out...

I like that the words in PK's are spliced. It makes it look different and it complement the movement that Dobie was describing.
