gamershell needs you (banners)

[hiv]

if you can create some banners to promote gamershell, complete freedom over texts and images, sizes:

468x60
120x600
300x250
728x90
160x600
300x600
775x600

not urgent but would like to create a page for other sites to get banners from

[GM™]

Excellent! :thumbup:

[LoneStrider]

maybe I even wil...

[AKADeadly]

OOO this is gana be fun :)

[GM™]

775 x 600. Smaller banners will be based on this style:

Obviously all of the wording is a bit rushed, but there is enough there to give you an idea of what I intend!

Dunno about the "by Gamers for Gamers" tagline but the idea is very cool :thumbup: :thumbup:

[KamisoriX]

I'm not sure about the profi review part. :D

[mikeeegeee]

The logo at the top left looks like its made out of bent coat hangers. And while I do love bent coat hangers, I like the current logo more

[Crackpot]

[Tiger4Ruler]

First of all great effort GamesMaster,

I agree with Kami get rid of "Professional" its sufficient with "Reviews and Previews..."

For the small devil logo up left I would suggest adding a layer with the current devil over the embossed one.

Get rid off the connection tube or metal thingie at the bottom between "First-Person" & "Strategy" etc.,
because the topics arent linked and it would look better in my opinion.

So take the critic or leave it as it is "your" work, just my suggestions...

Apart from that a :thumbup: :thumbup: for the Great Work!

[B-target]

is it not irritating such keep up a lay-out? ;) beceause it's difficult for a admin.... i think.
but they are nice :)

[Vesper]

damn you guys and your photoshop skills ;)

i like the sample you have up there GamesMaster, but Crackpot that girl is a little creepy :dennis:

[KamisoriX]

Here's a classic

http://img172.exs.cx/img172/7844/kamisorixhome2sx.jpg

you can write all the stuff around it like: incompetent Reviews, we have people reviewing adventure games who don't know jack about adventure games, and such. :D

Do you know any good Tut sites for it :unsure:

You should have some coding experience before jumping into flash. As for tut sites, I would recommend starting here:
