20$ Banner contest!

[aboujouj83]

Hi, I am having a 20$ banner contest for my new forum www.qnhl.com. The forum is active, and I need these banners for banner exchange. Note that we will have games and prizes in the forum.

These are some criteria I like to see in the banner:
-you should use the logo (or part of it) in the banner
-it should be catchy! The goal is to attract hockey fans to visit the forum!
-it should have the colors of the forum
-it should be animated.

I need a few diffrent sizes: 468 x 60, 234 x 60 and 120 x 60

You should include messages like:
"Do you feel the the hockey fever?" followed by "Visit QNHL.com, the Quality NHL Forum" followed by "Read the latest news, share rumors, watch goals and fights, trade equipments, play games and win prizes!!!" Some emphasis on winning prizes might be better.

You can adjust that text to whatever you feel like it gives better CTR. May be reordering the text or rephrasing it will be needed. Feel free to use your imagination here.

Winner will be paid by paypal.

The contest ends on March 3rd 10pm, unless someone comes up with a great banner before that.

Good luck!
Aboujouj

Dada design, great entry! Followed all the requirements. 3 Quick remarks:
1)the prizes picture can be improved. I would prefer to see jerseys, gloves, hats and/or Tshirts.
2)I'd like to see at least one player from a canadian team (ottawa is a good choice) in ur images.
3)Can u start with higher temperatures? Something around 55. This is a minor thing. Just to be in between C and F.

Krishm, some improvements. But the logo disappeared, and I don't see a lot of hockey theme anymore. In addition, the prizes can be better represented, I don't like much the money idea! But you fixed many of what I told you about before.

hive05, good improvements. I like your work, but to be honest with you I think I will choose between Khrism and Dadadesign. I just donated to you 40NPs for your time. Good luck with other works.

Dada design: Thanks for your new entry. I have some comments: I like the idea of the first banner where your temperature decreased while you were advancing in the cycle. Please keep that in the banner. Have something like 55 then 47 then 42 then 36 then 23.
I also would like to see something like "Visit Now" at the end, I explained to you that before if I am not wrong. One last thing: the new picture of Bouillon (the Canadian player) is not that good quality. My suggestion is that you keep the goalie picture at that position in the cyle, and replace the picture that appears next "read the latest news" by the Canadian players.

Thanks! I will announce a winnner tomorrow at night.
Good luck!

Thanks for reply. I have hard time understanding this part, "replace the picture that appears next "read the latest news" by the Canadian players." What canadians players?

I'm not a great hockey fan.

Edit: I can try to find clearer picture of Ottawa if you like.

 

[aboujouj83]

Oh sorry! I meant that I asked you I need a canadian player in one of the pictures. So I would like to see this canadian player in the picture that appears when the message "read the latest news" appears...and I want you to keep the picture of the goalie at the same place and at the same time of that of the first banner. You removed the goalie in your second entry. I would like to see it again. I hope it's clearer now.

 

[DadaDesign]

Okay, I get it now.
