Hey everybody!
Since my last contest was pretty much the most boring thing ever, I figured I'd start a new one...this time guaranteed to jump-start your competitive drive. :rock:

Here's the deal: all you have to do is design and create a JN banner for the IDOJ forums. Yup, that's right...you see the little iPod banner scrolling along the bottom of the boards? Yours could be next!

The only requirement is that the banner feature characters/concepts from Jimmy Neutron (duh) and that it be content appropriate (yes, Carl's topless Valentine's day card from Love Potion 976/J is considered appropriate, but after that we draw the line ;) ). Also, try to keep the width longer than the height...it makes for better visual appeal. Other than that, go crazy! Are you a huge JxA shipper? **cough-Gwen-cough** Now's your chance to make your agenda known! Do you think Hugh is the coolest thing to ever walk and breathe on Planet Earth? Make a banner featuring him! Do you just love the Retroville gang in all its unadulterated glory? That's fine too! ^_^ Wow, I used a lot of exclamation points in this paragraph!

Ahem. Back to business. Winners will be selected based on the quality of the banner (i.e. it's not cheaply assembled using Paint and a super bright hot pink background), the creativity of the layout, and its relevance to the show and this site. Text is optional (i.e. IDOJ for President).

OK, have fun with this! I will select first, second, and third prize winners, who will each have their banners featured for 1 month this summer. Deadline for entry is June 8th. Don't be late! B)

[MaraEDIT]: Due to the fact that it's already JULY and there still is no winner, there won't be a second or third place category.

Now, that's a good contest idea! Way to go, Mara! I'm betting you'll get lots of entries for this one.

Ahahaha. --shiftyeyes+handthroughhair--

I'll probably give this 'un a whack, but no guarrantees, since I suck at life. XD

[Hugh]

How much you suck at life has nothing to do with how mad your banner skillz are. :D

[.:!Gwen!:.]

Well, if making banners is a part of life, and I fail at life, shouldn't I be horrible at making banners?

I thought so. B) :lol:

*whacks Gwen repeatedly with a book* Stop being so negative and get working!

[.:!Gwen!:.]

OW! Daaaang!

I would get working, but my program ain't on this computer. As soon as I have access to my laptop, I will give it a shot. Maybe. XD

PROCRASTINATORS UNITE!!!
...tomorrow.

[~~Megan~~]

Whoo, procrastinate away. I would enter, but I suck at making banners. Seeing I've never made one.

[Lily Knotwise]

Oh, I am SO entering this! But after I finish my project... Which will probably be next week. And I'm not procrastinating, it's just a big project. But anyway, yeah, I am so here. In this contest. Wooh. :rock:

[Mara=^.^=]

The deadline is coming up quicker than you think, so get crackin'! o:)

~*Mara*~ = ^.^ =

[Lily Knotwise]

Oh noooes! The deadline is tomorrow and I don't have time tonight to make my banner! Stupid english exam tomorrow.... T_T

[Mara=^.^=]

That's OK. I'll extend the dealine by another week since nobody's entered. <_<

[Lily Knotwise]

I'M SORRY MARA! :(

Exams=BusyLily

I'm done on Friday though! :D

[Mara=^.^=]

That's OK, I understand. End of the school year is a busy time.

[girlgenius123]

Have you noticed that the end of the year has a lot of fights involved?

About the banner: I MIGHT do it, but how wide can it be?

[Lily Knotwise]

It should be thin and wide... So it'll scroll at the bottom and look good. :]

But like you said, there's a lot of fights probably because there's a lot of tension and stress and sometimes your emotions get the better of you. -_-

But anywhoo, yeah, go for the banner, they are MUCH fun to make! ^_^

[girlgenius123]

The scrolling banner is 120x800 pixels, so that sounds like a good size.

^ There is a lot of tension. It's the type that makes you go "LET ME OUT (of school)!"

[.:!Gwen!:.]

Here's my entry:



I used Paint.NET, and it took me forever to figure out how to do just that, and I have no clue on God's green earth how to put pictures on it. But here it is, anyway. =]

[cancel_me]

Eeeeeeee, I like it. :3 I DEFINITELY have to do a banner. Since I just got OpenCanvas, I'll sketch something, color it in, and add words. HUZZAH! xD
