Saintsational Banner for 2011 - Your ideas
Most of you probably wouldn't know, but I'm the one who has designed the banner for Saintsational over the past two years, where we have included our sponsorship players.
I do have a few ideas up my sleeve however I thought I'd put it to the Saintsational public to help me. Anything you can suggest would be helpful.
In particular I would like some ideas about how to present the players, the overall layout and the 'motto' that we use.
Thanks,
MS.

But, first step is to find a poster that is willing to do what Mr Magic has done so well...
I feel he may not post anymore after being insulted by a poster that should have been banned way before he did IMO...
It took myself and about 2 or 3 other posters to organise his avatar in some sort of appreciation of the outstanding work he has done for saintsational, but sadly that may be all down the drain, thanks to some deadsh1t poster that was allowed to come back after being banned on at least 3 passions before.
The admin staff were warned in time for that poster to be banned but sadly tooo flowering late to respond!!!

I reckon something like this...which i made. , sorry its gone a bit blurry up you get the idea.
But you would update the player sponsorship names in the top right corner.
I don't know whether its too much though.

Good idea, but I am not sure about the legalities of have an official St Kilda registered crest (which is owned by the AFL) on an "unofficial site"...SaintSimmo wrote:I reckon we should include the saints crest into it somehow.
Maybe a few action shots of our boys.
The subtitle could be that from BJ: "If we don't achieve it, we'll bloody die trying"
Working on one right now, doing it quickly though.

Not bad Saintsimmo, I think it's just way too cluttered. I think for a website banner it needs to be fairly simple. I also wouldn't like to increase the size much more than it is now.
I do like BJ's quote, and will probably use it. I'm a bit unsure about using the crest, initially I was told to blur it out completely on the players jumpers/shirts, however I left it and it seems fine.
One idea I did have was to use the four white bits of our logo and put player photos in them. The only problem is that we have five...
I'll try a few things, I just tried putting the players in a filmstrip, looks okay but not great.
How does this look?
Its pretty rough.

with increase in costs it may be that there will only be 3/4
dependant on the level of sponsorship
First we need to convinve MM to continue\
and then decide the process
but I think you will find as you assume Morrabbinsaint that use of the logo- maybe apart from being in the players clothing will not be allowed.

Agree about the clutter, bit too much going on. I'm not sure about the filmstrip because it doesnt really relate.Moorabbin Saints wrote:Not bad Saintsimmo, I think it's just way too cluttered.

Maybe a hard task to convince MM to continue IMO, considering they (the admin) had reasonable time to ban the SOAB well before he started his triad of abuse against him.saintbrat wrote:with increase in costs it may be that there will only be 3/4

I hope he returns and realises that it was never his request for that SOAB to be banned.

Whats done is done mate, no point on dwelling on the past. Yeah, they may have been a little late, but we can't fix that now can we?St Fidelius wrote:Maybe a hard task to convince MM to continue IMO, considering they (the admin) had reasonable time to ban the SOAB well before he started his triad of abuse against him.saintbrat wrote:with increase in costs it may be that there will only be 3/4

I am quietly confident MM will return, I think he has too much to give to this forum to not return and run the sponsorship.

This is also about a person that organises the sponsorship, a person that imo had been personally attacked....
a poster that you seem to have arguments with MM posts...
I gave you my rational about this banned poster so let it be FFS
and again yes this is about the banner, and since MM has stated that he will continue this is over andso be it...
suck it up P66!!
PS
Learn how to communicate, without being so abrasive
One would think that most posters enjoy MM as a poster and a contributer to this site ...
You may think otherwise but who the F*** cares

Why Would we even try? So many people here are so f****** dumb they cannot follow anything a little bit complex or change, my brother is one of the highest paid designers/ graphic artists in the UK and has designed things for this forum in the past only to be abbused as ppl can't handle change or are too retarded to follow something compex so why should anyone bother? Times are ever changing you f****** dinosaurs and get with the present

Meh, I am going to try because I am awake and a litte bored, and really don't care if anyone wants to rubbish my idea
Please excuse the fact I am limited to paint as my design program so only have the one font, but what about using a design similar to the NAB cup hot cross bun jumper?
This would of course only work for four players, given people have indicated we may not go for as many this year it may still suit....and I have just take a couple of names from this year, no idea who we will be going for.

Too many sub-frames around the player pictures. Apart from that, it's a great idea! I'd be happy opening up to that each day.Moorabbin Saints wrote:I do like that, I will definitely take it into consideration.SainterK wrote:Meh, I am going to try because I am awake and a litte bored, and really don't care if anyone wants to rubbish my idea

Maybe you could extend the left arm of the white cross right across the banner, between the Saintsational graphic and the sponsorship text below.

I will absolutely look at doing something like that.SainterK wrote:Hey Avid
This something like what you meant?
Anyhow, I've had my fun now....looking forward to seeing who SS decides to sponsor.
Very good, a few fine touches will make an excellent banner.
