saint66au · Post: # 692686Post **saint66au** » Wed 14 Jan 2009 9:03am

OK...Entries are now being taken for the new banner featuring our 4 sponsored players. Guidelines are as follows:

* Banner must have our current SS logo and the names of our sponsor players. Pics of them are OK

* Size should be approx 700 x 250 pixels and ideally not be bigger than about 150Kb

* Obviously has to be Red, White and Black

*Entries must be posted on this thread to be in the running.

Entries close STRICTLY at the end of January..after which a poll will be set up to vote for the best entry, lasting for about a week. The winner of this poll will be the new banner for 2009 and will be uploaded to the site

If you have any questions PM an admin/mod or post here

Cheers

All rights reserved etc.

I tried to get a picture of our president in but all google would give me was this.

I'd replace Grant with that picture of Elle in the Saints jumper

Just go with the cowboy.

EDIT: can you fit Warner on it? (I know he looked like a B-grade country cricketer last night, but surely his resemblence in name and face to the other Warne gives him a good enough link to the Saints?).

I'd love to try and design a banner! Just want to ask a few questions.

1) As far as I know, Jack Steven, Raph Clarke and Nick Heyne are our sponsored players. Who is the 4th?
2) Do we have to replace the 2008 player images with the 2009 ones when they come out?

Pics of the players are not compulsory..but if you can work them into your design go for it

But with the extra two players...

I vote for Cowboy's offering, with 1 small ammendment.

Since we are sponsorig 4 players I think we need 4 female photos as well - which could be easily slved by a 'poll' of which of the Forum Princesses should be included? Or we could just add the photo of the Olsen twins?

Darren · Post: # 693082Post **Darren** » Wed 14 Jan 2009 10:33pm

This is what mine looks like so far. It's still a Work In Progress.

EDIT: Had to use Dal instead of Heyne at the moment because I'm still working on Heyne's photo.

Moorabbin Saints · Wed 14 Jan 2009 10:56pm

Pretty good effort. Your best waiting for the official photo's of Tunga and Heyne. Also it might be a good idea to include a line of text naming the players.

A very good idea and with a bit of a tidy up should be very good.

Also for anyone wanting to know, the current font is Eight Track, from here: http://www.dafont.com/font.php?file=eig ... asst=alpha

Nah I had a whole different style. I'll have to keep looking.

Thanks anyway.

Edit - Found it.

St Fidelius · Thu 15 Jan 2009 12:06am

I love it mate...

I would also like to see the original saintsational.com as another version for maybe a different board style.

and also with links to the official saints site, saints shop site and membership links...

But I just love your work

we agree on this one St Fid

maybe battye and moorabbin saint can just check the logo copyright thing re sponsors names
it's bright and fresh with the actual faces

any preferance for setting of who is where?

not worried but just asking

Raven · Post: # 693170Post **Raven** » Thu 15 Jan 2009 11:55am

Love it, we have a winner IMO.

Can we see a version that has the original colours for the Saintsational.com text i.e. the black with red border?

i_luv_nick_riewoldt · Thu 15 Jan 2009 12:14pm

I love it too. It's very clean and sharp... with not too many things happening all at once. Great job moorabbin saints!!

he hadn't shown us the new pictures with the black saintsational
but the original thoughts came across quite dark- especailly for those of us using the grey/white layout

would imagine even darker for those using the black layout.
