I'd love to try my hand at this and help out (and I totally support the idea of everyone being able to use these) and Sarah's question about the official art thing was also on my mind since you said in the rules that it had to be your work and nobody else's. xD

I've never really done banners before so I dunno how good I'll be. xD If I manage to whip anything up that looks half decent then I might sign up. :]

Thanks for answering this questions! And sorry, I missed the sign up thing. Oops! I was just way too excited haha.

Very well, but you don't need to sign up as I was going to sign you on as more of the enforcer and acceptor of things. I feel that this project will start getting very popular very soon. So I'm going to need all the help I can get. Of course, you're welcome to reserve and create banners as well. <3


On that note, I will now submit the first banner!

Behold #123 Scyther!



I will also reserve Zapdos.

Okay, well can do that then! ^^ Sounds fun. x) I suppose there's a certain standard we're looking for, but I'm also assuming that most will be accepted anyway (unless it's somehow horrific and indiscernible. xD)

Nice scyther banner! O: I haven't seen that image before. I don't know about the random black stripe on the edge though, and it looks a little tall. More effects would be cool too, as it seems more like a cropped image than anything. But yeah. xD

Well, I DID crop it out of a Pokémon card. o.o

Ooh, okay. xD I'm not sure how edited these are meant to be. But if it's not much, then I'm sure I could whip a few out!

This is a relatively smaller version of the card that I used. Here's to hoping you'll notice the differences. xD

Also, these are examples of what not to accept:



This is, for one, way too big. 2, there was little to no effort, I spent, at best, 30 seconds making this. I want to see real effort. C'mon.



While this has a little more effort, I mean.. I just hope to whatever God you believe in that you never EVER consider something like this acceptable.... EVER.


In closing, taking a gander at my actual Scyther submission, it is very basic, yet clean and neat. a few gradient maps and some blur/sharpen action goes a long way. As Xanthe stated, It looks like I just cropped it out, and made it look pretty. Because that's what I did. Borders are also essential. It really helps to have them when making tags, and submitting them to this particular project..
