Hi there


Due to the vast amount of entries that look so damn good, we simply can't make a decision and as such we've decided the people who should decide should be the people using and browsing the forum.

Here are the entries:-

Hey guys

good news, spoke with Aria today and he loves the forum competitions and is happy for me to do more and as such there will be more to come with equally as good prizes if not better. :)

So if you don't win this one remember there will be other comps to get involved with. :D

For me personally, the others were far too busy and this one far too plain. I think they all were also a bit too traditional too. No snowmen, or quirkyness, just sparkly but no characters. I hope this is of some use!

ps. the other three didn't suit the colour scheme too good either, the one above that does is the plain one.

Hi there

I think fact is we have a clear winner, RawZ was winning on the first poll hands down and the second time around he is winning again.

I think that makes it rather clear that people preferre RawZ design, he also gets mine and Aria's vote too.

So as it is RawZ is the winner. :)

Congratulations to Rawz, but i think the next competition would benefit from some extra guidlines.

I think this should be one;

That you should have to be a member of the forum for so many days or have at least so many posts to enter.

Or anyone can come along with all his newly joined up mates and get them to vote to him.

Sound fairer?

I think I agree with the entry requitements limit and all the implications that not having one had on the existing forum members basically having no chance of winning.. But I also thing that this competition was the first one Gibbo has done here, and the first one that Aria has bothered with for a good couple of years, almost - so now might be a good opportunity to let things lie, and for everyone to learn from how this one went, to improve future ones. Maybe Gibbo should start a thread for competition rules/suggestions etc..?

Just because somebody new won, you're all moaning and trying to find a way out of it. Ridiculous.

I'm just saying that this is quite easy to fix.

For example;

I have a good friend who does artwork for 2 record labels, i'm sure i could get him to knock something christmassy up., that gets me in the competition.

I then get my friends on facebook to open an Aria account and vote for me, never to use the account again?

Easy.

Thanks to Gibbo though for organising the competition and such a good prize aswell.

I already congratulated Rawz on a deservedly winning entry, well done mate, i don't think i could spend 12 hours designing a banner, no matter the prize.

I voted for Biodoid BTW because i liked it.

Hopefully this doesn't spoil any future competitons because that isn't what anyone wants, plus its obviously doing the forum good.

For future competitions that involve designing something I shall simply decide the winner and there will be no poll.

But competitions will be open to all forum members new and old, however any members who I think have only joined up to simply enter the competition and not contribute anything to the forum will not win.

I agree about the editing of the URL/image etc.. but PNG files can have layers. They are basically the Adobe/Macromedia version of a Photoshop PSD file :)

08-12-09, 22:34
Hi there

Guys I believe it's when I put the banners against the forum to show how they looked that when I dragged and dropped wills banner it clearly took the Christmas out and I never noticed. But as will posted it shortly afterwards and I edited my original post to include the fixed version will has had equal chance.

No one has posted here requesting they want their vote changed, does anything now wish to remove their vote for Rawz to vote for Will instead?

Then the fact will has sent a lot of pm's asking people to vote for him is just a joke and if I see anyone mis-using the pm system like this again well say bye bye to your pm ability. It's a very un-sportman thing to do.

Then the fact on the first vote Rawz was winning hands done and all banners were displayed correctly and on the second vote Rawz won yet again.

I think it's fair to say Rawz has won hands down and I find it rather petty that people react like this that they lost.

All the runners up here will be getting a decent prize and there is gonna be many more competitions but in future for competitions of this type I will decide the winner to prevent what has happened here and decision will be final.

Well done RawZ. I liked yours best, when I got a PM I liked it even more due to someone not trying to cheat. ;)

Personally I think Gibbo has done a brilliant job of this even with loads of people *****ing because they didn't win.

I didn't even get into the runners up and I'm still glad the comp was run and happy with the way it has been run. Stop moaning you lot or we'll lose the chance to have these competitions.

Aaron
08-12-09, 22:52

I would concur 100% with this.. Even if there were some issues with the voting system, I think rawz got SO many more votes than the next person that even if you take those things into account, he would have probably still won :lol: At the end of the day, he got the most votes in both polls. So well done :)

But also, as I said before, I think that this competition was a good learning curve all round, it was the first one Gibbo has run here and its the first one Aria has run for a LONG time.. So it will have teething problems, but I'm glad to see them back :) And hopefully I'll actually get to win something decent this time around!! :)

Thank you for the congrats. It's a nice feeling to actually win something for a change. Especially just before Xmas when money is very low and I'm currently out of work sadly. It must be over 4 years now that I've actually won something from a competition, and what better way with a stunning prize! Once again cheers Aria, and ta Gibbo for the comp!

After spending close to 12 hrs making all 6 banners the past week, it makes it all the merrier to actually win. Thank you for all the votes, very much appreicated! To replace my existing monitor will be such a joy for me and the Mrs. I have an unbranded none-widescreen 17" CRT with a 4" slight faint crack on the monitor. To have this new lush screen this week with be awesome!

I shall be picking up my new monitor this Thursday from Aria!

I'm still curious to know what the decent runners up prizes will be! :)

I didn't get round to voting but I think that RawZ won it fair and square. Yes he is a new member but it's not like he has only posted a couple of times just to enter the competition.

Also from the sounds of it, he really needs a new monitor! So well done I say.

Picked up the monitor from Aria this morning, installed just now. Looking good i think! Gave the old one to a local charity shop.

Surely that means you'll have to go back and get another monitor then!?

All the runners up here will be getting a decent prize
Not to sound bad, as this is purely to know information - but should we be expecting the prizes before christmas? If we are, then I'll get someone to be in my house this week :)

Hi there

I shall sort the runners up prizes in January guys. :)

Quick question.... will there be another Banner Comp after Christmas seeing how the last competition one was mostly Christmas ones. So i'm guessing your not gonna keep the Christmas one up all year are you?

I mean Gibbo didnt exactly ask for a Christmas Banner but once someone created one everyone followed and just did a Christmas themed one. Have you all forgotten Christmas only happens in December lol ?

Oh well. There's always next year. XD

can't see anything that could be causing it from the server end, very odd. If you right click the image and select properties, what's the filename that is shown?

tystar
23-12-09, 18:00
what image????

Thats the bit thats missing.... not showing anything the thread title.

DoubleTop
23-12-09, 18:20
hmm, I think we may have a mismatch on the servers, a similiar issue to the parallel forum. I'll do what I can tomorrow.

I was wondering that the other day :lol:
I'd be quite happy with a GTX260, or a couple of gig of PC2-8000 or better OCZ/Patriot ram.. I'm easily pleased.. :lol: :lol:

Pm Gibbo about it?? Worth a try if you haven't heard anything.

Last thing I heard was that Gibbo was waiting till they had some decent stuff in stock to send out as prizes... I'm happy to wait if it means we get good stuff :D

BUMP

Bored and remembered this, thought what you want to send us? As a couple of others said, those 32" HD TVs would do great as a runner up prize. :p :clap
