Eleven & Amy New Banner/Icon/Motto Suggestion Forum!

girly_girl posted on Mar 22, 2011 at 08:11PM
According to this pick link most people think its time for a new spot look!
So, this is where you can submit your ideas for the new spot banner, icon & motto!



IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON PARTICIPATING, PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS.

Based on experiences with this type of thing in the past, I think the best way to do it is to pick a banner first (since they're harder to make and easier to match icons to) and then once we've picked one of those, we can vote for a matching icon. To keep it simple, and since those who really want to participate usually do so quickly, I'll run it on a 10 day basis - that is, you get 10 days to submit stuff,10 days to vote for each, etc. And for the people who don't want a change - the current icon & banner will be included in the picks. If anyone wants to suggest a new motto for the spot (keep it short-ish), I'll make a pick for those the same week as the icons.

IMPORTANT STUFF ABOUT SUBMISSIONS

-BANNERS need to be 800x100 px. That's 800 pixels wide by 100 pixels high. Any banners that are not that size will not be included in the pick.

-ICONS need to be square. Preferably 200x200 pixels, but they can be larger (300x300, 400x400). Fanpop tends to distort 100x100 px icons when they're uploaded, but larger icons don't seem to be affected.


BTW, I mostly took the instructions from DarkSarcasm's spot change forum in the Harry Potter club. She had them all written down really great, so I hope you don't mind :)

@CheekyCheese: I use Photoshop or link Its pretty easy to use and all you have to do is create a new image {size 800X100} upload images from your computer, and then you can edit them as you want. It does take a bit of getting used to but soon you'll be great at it!

Some motto's :)

"Whatever happens, however hard, however far, we will find you."

"Never fancy someone you know you shouldn't."

"Someones missing. Someone important, someone so, so important."

"Something old, Something new, something borrowed... and something blue."

"The times we had, eh? Would've had... never had. The Doctor... and Amy Pond. And the days that never came..."

"Guess what? Gotcha."

"Amy Pond. The girl who waited. All night in your backyard... was is worth it?" "Shut up. Of course it was."

"Remember that night you flew away with me?"
"Of course I do."
"And you asked me why I was taking you and I told you there was no reason. I was lying..."


Hope you like them!

over a year ago girly_girl said…
Thanks girls!
I love that icon!

To get the pics to merge together, I use Photoshop CS3.
You add on each picture as a new layer on a banner sized canvas.
Then you set the brush to 'clear' and simply 'rub out' the bits of the picture that you want to merge together.
I know it sounds complicated but it is quite easy once you get the hang of it. I've been making banners for about 2 years and so I've had lots of practice at it!
