Corey Posted May 26, 2003 Share Posted May 26, 2003 Really? Everyone's doing it? Yours is the first I've seen... I like it even thought it's a little plain. Definitly cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conpiracymonki Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 [b][size=1] I didn't think it was plain o.o' That is definitely my favourite one out of every single one made by anyone so far, lol. The overlapping thingy was done very well. Only thing I can say is that I don't like the font you used for 'Change' much.. but that's just a small personal thing [spoiler]*cough* Coming from someone who refuses to use any more than Arial, Verdana, and Haettenschweiller *cough*[/spoiler][/b] Nice and simple.. v2 + some other version I forget... teh coolies design[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semjaza Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 I honestly don't even understand what you did to even make this worth showing. You took Syk3's banner... put a transparency over it. Plopped Sephiroth in and inexplainably stuck in OtakuBoards.com in the center, despite it saying OtakuBoards right next to that. Then stuck in "Change", I guess to signify that it's some sort of different thing from the original (?). I don't know. Perhaps I'm missing that this is some sort of tribute or evolution in a sense, but the whole thing just seems like a bizarre edit of Syk3's work (which mysteriously has his name completely cut out of it). It's one thing to do this and give your dues (I mean, if you even [i]mentioned[/i] Syk3's name, I wouldn't even have been bothered by this), but it's another to claim to have "made" something that's mostly someone else's work.

Subversive Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Couldn't Find a picture for the back eh? -.- Still nice effect, I likey the overlaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKC Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Ooooo, I think it looks really good. I like the text that says "Taking message boards to the extreme" I think its good, except for the little dude in the middle thats a bit odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinkoru Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 The text that says taking message baords to the extreme is ON the otakuboards v.6 banner. Make by Sky3. He just Took it. :-/ Sky3 is my friend, I guess u might say that, but He did make a nice banner and deserve credit 4 it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epitome Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Nice work Kakashi. I like the "Change" thing in the middle and the guy. Although you got some of the art from the Otaku thing presently, its awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conpiracymonki Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 [b][size=1] Silly people ¬.¬ He took the banners of two different OtakuBoards versions, and just mixed them together very well, and added the word 'Change' over it. That's pretty much all. It's just that he did it very well, and it's something no-one else so far's done. So yeah, he wasn't really stealing Syk3's work. More like using an OB banner which happened to be made by Syk3.[/b] And the picture in the back is Trunks -.-[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 [size=1]I always thought it looked like some kinda animal...centaur or something. o0 But yes, those are both OB banners. Kinda like SPX's banner...I don't know if it's still in her sig or not.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarK DeatH Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 It's lacking originality at all -_- I mean, it isn't bad, but you need to be original when making some graphics designing... I mean, if you are gonna make a wallpaper, you won't try to use the same picture and background effect that's been around for too much time... You would normally rather find some pictures that you hadn't seen around yet... Same for a banner... If you just pick some already used things and paste them to the background, using the same color schemes and just playing around with the opacity, then it's not "your" work... It's someone else's work which you just put together... What makes it "yours" is the fact of designing and thinking... You need to plan what you want and put it to practice, using your own stuff... I will give it a "decent" because there is lack of originality and the colors aren't crisp... you didn't have to feather the borders... Made it look worse and less crisp...
