"EXTRA EXTRA MAD BANNER.2 Winners Announced"

THE BANNER COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED. The other one for the longest threads is still running.

I'm pleased to announce that the following people will be awarded a Filmaday prize or a banana:

CJC - Hannibal banner
Slaveunit - Gameaday.co.uk banner
Dav1d - UKphonetones.com banner
Atomic_Koala - Gameaday.co.uk banner

er-no wins a Gameaday prize for his UKchatforums.co.uk and Filmaday.co.uk banners. He's on fire.

Check out all the entries here:

Well done to everybody who took part, there were lots of interesting ideas, a toon, and only a couple of really scary ones. Watch out for the winning banners popping up all over the site in the next couple of days.

Tony's original message:

Design a banner competition. One banner equals a Filmaday prize. Two will get you a Gameaday prize.

Banners count if we use them. There can be many winners. If we don't use them then there is no prize. They must be under 15K and 468x60 pixel GIFs so don't be stupid.

Focus on our free gifts and items which are near the top of our charts, Get Dotted and Freeola, or UKchatforums. Look for an idea which will entice people to click, or a strong selling point of the product in question.

You kind of get ideas while you are doing them... well I find I do...

I think with everyones entries that most ideas and things SR were looking for have been submitted.

(was it you that did the phone one with the logos?)

Ok this may sound dumb but I have a picture in my head of how it might work.

It would start off with text saying "Ok, who wants a free game?" then at the bottom of the banner loads of hands would pop up and say "me!" Then it would finish with "make sure you are in with a chance, gameaday.co.uk" or something along those lines.

I'm fresh out of ideas now, saying that I will still probably do a few more...

Just because I don't hail them as a new god doesn't mean I don't think they are good.

now I must do another lot... I have a few ideas for some games that are unreleased that need a banner...

I should do about another 10.
