Looking for an artist :)

Post by Timendus »

Who of you graphic guru's is willing to make a nice background image for the header (and/or page) of the API website, to make it a little less black and white? It's 700x50 pixels, and I'd like some blue-ish abstract thingy :)
I'll put your name on the website ;)

Thanks in advance!

That's pretty neat :) I put it up on the website.
Anyone who thinks he can beat that? ;)

* :oops: , hmm I bet it takes <1 hour till someone beats me :P.*
Edit: I would change the text to black or something else, as it shows up a little funky.

You mean those links? They were black, but you could hardly read them, so I changed it to white.

Ok, the white shows up alot better. Is that what you wanted on the banner API? If you put what you want I can add it or try agian for something different.

Well, on the one hand, I didn't really want any text on it. But on the other hand I like "API" with that bit of smoke and all ;)
Do you have any ideas?

Well it all started out as a joke, like a paint image with API in black on a blue background :P, but I never was very creative.....so if you think of something I will try it.

I like kalan's first design most. It fits perfectly into the webpage.

I agree :)
d4vz's banner is pretty cool too, but it doesn't really fit there.

Second! (Gotta get that Model UN lang outta my head for a bit :puzzled:

Too bad d4vz's banner won't work- its like grade A Kick ass!
