Banner Contest!

First topic message reminder :

Since our old banner up there is a little bit outdated (and shows WindClan, ThunderClan, RiverClan and ShadowClan instead of WindClan, ThunderClan, SunClan and StormClan) many members have asked if we can have a banner contest and fix it up!

RULES
- You can either draw the banner yourself OR use photomanipulation
- If you use photomanipulation, you MUST use stock images, not random images from google. If your banner does not use stock images it will be disqualified. Make sure you follow the stock image rules too! Here are examples of stock image websites:

- Your banner must not contain any inappropriate language, themes, or text (aka must be completely G-rated!). If you want wolves snarling at each other, go ahead and do that, but not blood everywhere and stuff like that.
- The banner can be something completely different than the one we already have! Be creative about it!
- Your entry is due by the 25TH OF FEBRUARY!
- Please re-make your own, don't just take the current banner and slap new Clan names on there.
- You can send up to 3 submissions, only 1 can win.
- The Clan names must be SOMEWHERE on the banner. It also must say "The Four Clans" somewhere on the banner.
PRIZES

You know what ignore that. My crazy sense went off......
I'm just gonna finsh this post.....

Good luck to everyone, you're banners are all so amazing and unique from one another!
Shh, Hawkpool don't say bad things about your art your banner was extremely creative and dynamic. (I looked at it and thought "Now why didn't I think of that?")

Again, good luck to all I can't wait to see one of the new banners decorating the site.
I do have a question, will the rest of the site skin remain the same or is it getting a make over as well?

Good Luck to all entries! They were all wonderful!

Just the banner will be changing to reflect the names of the Clans; everything else will remain the same :]

....hmm real life apache is just like rp apache......

We should have a contest for the background at one point, if you leaders feel up to coding the board again. xD

Daw thank you Sophie, I'm not nearly as cool or nice as Apache, he's someone I wish I could be. <3

Hehe,ya still are

The winners are as follows:

First- Apachewind
Second- Dawnpaw
Third- Goldenpup (second entry)

Congratulations to you three and thank you so much for entering, everyone! The entries were all fantastic and it's awesome to see how creative and artistic our community is!

I won? O.O Thank you so much and congrats to the other winners!

Congrats to Apache! I love your banner! Dawnpaw and Goldenpup, congrats to you also! Your entries were amazing!

COMGRAT ALL OF YOUR BANNERS ROCKED!
And,well i really didn't really put any effort in mine. So i'm ok

Congrats to all of you!

WHAT? :DDDDD I'm just happy that I got third~ [I'm golden ] Since I already have a house-dog and Don't want another, could I pay for it to be a wolf character slot?

Lol. I kinda knew that apache would get first and dawn second but not anyone for third.

Again, Apache the artist wins with amazing art, congratz ^^

Congrats Apache, Dawn, and Golden! They all looked wonderful! XD

Thanks guys I honestly didn't think I'd win this one my idea wasn't as creative as some that I saw, but I can't lye and say I didn't nearly jump of of my chair in excitement when I saw my banner up. (It took me a moment to realize what I was seeing but when I did I was ecstatic!) xD

Psshh I've lost on here in art contests I've not won everything, which would be is unfair if I did, because some of your guy's ideas are so amazing they blow mine out of the water!
