    Your mission: Create the banner of a pro athlete's personal webpage.

    Possible sports could be NFL, MLB, NHL, NBA, MLS, NASCAR.. maybe PGA.

    This could include anything among: "the official website of ______, player photo, team logo, page links, etc, not all are required.

    Dimensions are pretty open but it must be:
    500-900px wide
    100-400px tall

    Please don't go to the extremes, realistic banner sizes if you're going to go tall, make it short in width.. if you're going to make it 900px wide, don't make it 400px tall



    Some examples:
    http://www.terrellowens.com
    http://www.pujolsfamilyfoundation.org/index2.html
    http://www.dwyanewade.com/


    ***I am adding an extra rule this month: With your submission, all work that you take from, not including custom brushes or anything like that, but all images that you incorporate into your piece, must also be submitted, the link is fine, if it's on your HD, imageshack it.***


    The reasoning behind this is that I want to see the contestant's art shown off, not that of others, with slight modification.

    Good Luck

    This round will be due Thursday, November 9th, 10PM eastern time.


    ****Additionally - Animation is allowed, albeit sparingly. It adds effect, but we're looking for photoshop, not flash. Thanks for the question, DM!

    I'm still iffy on that. I'm leaning towards putting the links to the images under each entry.

    *edit* I will in fact be doing that.

    I know it's obvious what you did and didn't use IL, but I need you to send me the individual graphic URLs.

    actually the way things are going atm I may have to pull out :( we're down two staff members at work so I have and will continue to have next to no time to finish what I've started - unfortunately... I will try and see if I have time tonight to finish it... but if I don't have it in by the deadline you'll know why :(

    If you can you can, if you can't you can't. I have 11 entrants anyway, so if one person pulls out, it's alright, but not everyone's is in yet anyway.

    Good luck with work.

    I think I have to be the one to forfeit. I've been at the office non-stop and bringing work home, so I haven't even touched it. I hope it doesn't cause an inconvenience. Maybe next time!
