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!

Thanks SouthernEssence.

Hive05, I think you posted the wrong banner. It's the same entry as your second one.

juliusbrill, I just saw your .swf file. I think it's a good start, but I think you should work more on the quality of the banner. And it looks to me bigger than the size I specified. I also prefer .gif banners.

Thanks,
Aboujouj

You guys may want to watch your entries for typos.

 

[aboujouj83]

guys, I meant "do you feel the hockey fever" not "do you feel the the hockey fever", it's funny how all the banners contain double the!

Khrish, very nice entry. I would like use to use the goalie from my website, because you have the original one and I don't want to have team logos (the Devils) in the banner.
Anoother comment: The text in white: "read the latest news, share rumors" is very fast, I can't read it. Try to work on the timing of that, and keep its timing smooth with the one of the top message.
The "QNHL.com" on the left looks ok, but misses something...not sure what it is.
And is it possible to have a sort of slight emphasis on "hockey fever" and "win prizes", only a slight but nice one.

Thanks,
Aboujouj

lol, I was about to do the same thing. I think the reason was that you typed it twice on your first post, we just copy and paste it.

Edit: Progress, I've just finished with the images, now I'm starting animation.

This is what I've got so far. I tried to match your site and add lots of pictures to show its a hockey website. Now I go to sleep.
