P.S. I read that the banners with the most votes win, but I did not see where or how to vote. (Note I would not vote for my own entries that would be, well,.. vain )

I imagine that once some deadline is passed, and the shortlist are picked, then we'll all get a chance to vote then.

Nice David - but I still like your first one best
Pincho - I really like the spaceship one in the middle of your three. Nice.

[edit] Ack! In the time it took me to write my post you'd done another. Ok, I like your 1st and 4th now, David.

Rich: It might be worth clarifying what the banner will be used for... My impression was that it will be used here on the forums as an 'identifying banner', but other people seem to be creating what looks more like an 'advertising banner'

I'm still keeping it simple, though I must admit, mine are looking pretty bad compaired to some of the late entries. Nice job Gervais.

Good job so far, guys. 90% of them might be a little--- umm... subquality, though.

I know, I said my last one was my final entry, but but but.. this banner contest has got me hooked. Having fun is very addictive.

I remembered I had all those Darkmatter models and decided to do a quick montage/render in bryce..

CattleRustler, David Gervais and Megatons are all pretty nice (for various reasons ). Bizar Guy's is a nice idea too.

They're not the only good ones, but they're the most memorable.

Ok, Just so you know, I really don't care about prizes or winning, an honorable mention would do,.. or as a prize make my Artist's challenge thread a sticky. (Blatant plug)

Here is my 'Lucky 7th' entry. I think it has a nice retro feel to it..
