HL2 Grounds Banner Contest

Thanks to Munro, he has given me permission to post this contest on the forums. Yes, we @ http://www.hl2grounds.com are hosting a "Banner" contest. Which means, whom ever comes up with the most creative and professional banner, we will put it on the site. Thats right, on the site.

As we see it, the banner has a huge part on what the site means and represents. Yes, we could do it ourselves and it would be great work. But this is a way that we can give a little to the viewers/members of the community. In a sense, show how we welcome and like to be more interactive with the community of Half-Life 2.

There are some rulz to this

1.) No provocative images

2.) No Source Theft images imbedded

3.) No provocative slang

4.) You can only submit one banner

Other than those four simple rulz, everything is a GO!!

As for the size of the image, there is a limit. The banner thats being displayed now is 830 x 150. So we would like to keep it at that range in size. Especially the width.. !! Height, well you can modify there..;)

To submit your work:

[email protected]

[email protected]

We will be extremely critical on what will be our banner for the site. We want the site to be presented at its best and we expect nothing less from the banners..!!

So get those creative minds at work, join us @ http://www.hl2grounds.com and hope to hear from you soon.. !!

Great Stuff! The second is stunning but maybe to overloaded...?

Well I like the third one most, according to the sites design it'll maybe fit.
