"THE MAD BANNER CHALLENGE IS OVER - THE WINNERS ARE..."

Okay, so the mad banner challenge is over. I think big respect needs to go out to everyone who managed to create decent banners and keep them under 15k! Anyway the winning banners that we have decided to put up on the site are:


UKCheats Banner - ("Whipped by Wario...") - By Armitage Shanks
http://www.fuji-image-service.fsnet.co.uk/ukcheats/mariocheats/15kad.gif

Maxx PC Banner - ("Loading...") - By Turbonutter
http://www.imagics.f2s.com/maxx.gif

GB Advance Banner - ("GB Advance + hands...") - By Er-no
http://www.er-no.fsnet.co.uk/banner1.gif

Notables Election Banner - ("Who will be the sixth notable...") - By Er-no
http://www.er-no.fsnet.co.uk/banner2.gif


These banners have been put up on the site to see how well they do. All of the clicks are monitored by our admin system which can tell us who clicked on it, so don't even think about clicking your own banner hundreds of times!
Also we need these banners to be genuinely successful to make this a proper marketing exercise, as sometimes the banners can look amazing but it doesn't mean anyone will click on them... (trust me on this one..!)

Any of the above banners that reach 0.5% click through in the first week will win a Filmaday prize, and if both of Er-no's banners reach over 0.5% than he can claim a Gameaday prize.

Anyway, Thanks and well done to everyone who took part.

Cheers.

lol... I'm doing pretty much the complete opposite... I'm not even really entreing the competition... Just bored beyond belief

:P

I create banners on a day to day basis, can't be bothered now though.

These are REALLY naff...

Yours are really cool man ...

They've got a much better look than my own...

(I've got to start using colours other than Black & White! :) )

Also they make a lot more sense as Ads... Mine just seem to come over as statements...

It shouldnt be...

apparently its...

Its .5 of a sec for the first 5 frames...

2.5 secs for the 6th frame

and 3 for the seventh...

Ive just been moving things around and renaming... so it may have screwed things up for a second?

Try it now... it should be fine?

(thanks for the help though)

Armatige, for that last banner, the speed of the changing of the colours is different for the first three words...changing them to the same amount would make it better....

:)

And another piece of crap...
