Boo Posted August 15, 2008 Author Share Posted August 15, 2008 [size=1]And here I was, thinking I had got rid of them all. :([/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellerby Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]Four votes and yet nobody has written anything? Dispicable. I'm going to have to vote for [b]Cat[/b]. Unlike the other three banners, hers concentrates on Batman [i]and[/i] The Joker as opposed to just one. Seeing as the movie is about both of them, her banner fits the theme best. The images are a little blurry but I like the background and the border is unique. A different font for the quotes is the only complaint I have. [I]All[/I] the banners are so good![/COLOR][/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allamorph Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 [FONT=Arial]I'm going with [B][COLOR="DarkRed"]Sayrin[/COLOR][/B]. I agree with [COLOR="DarkRed"]White[/COLOR] that the Joker figured dominantly in the movie, and although I like both [COLOR="DarkRed"]Sayrin[/COLOR]'s and [COLOR="DarkRed"]Cat[/COLOR]'s to that end, I like the way [COLOR="DarkRed"]Sayrin[/COLOR] made the Joker the sole focus. If [COLOR="DarkRed"]Cat[/COLOR] had, say, taken a front angle of Joker and a rear view of Batman, then I probably would have voted the other way. The reversal of those positions might have created an entirely different atmosphere, I think.[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachmaninoff Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 I like [B]SaiyanPrincessX[/B]'s banner. The colors and textures just come together really well. Even though the Joker figured dominantly in the movie, I like the total absence of him in the banner. I also like the play on the word Knight with the text in the description. So I vote for [B]SaiyanPrincessX[/B]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrina Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 [FONT="Tahoma"]I'm going to vote for [B]Cat[/B] since I like how they have both of them in there. What is batman without a villain? Though I like the others that only focus on just one aspect too. I also like the dark color scheme along with the sayings on it. So I [B]Cat[/B] gets my vote for this round. :catgirl:[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigglyness Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 [size=1]I have to vote for [b]SaiyanPrincess[/b]. I really like the colors and the execution of the siggy. I like the fact that the focus isn't on the Joker. It stands out the most to me. I like the different elements and the blending is good. I like the texture and how it was put together. Overall typography is also better of the four. Good use of space. I like it. [/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
