You are an highly skilled PhotoShopper? Then read on!

WarRockShop needs a new banner and header for it's new skin "Underground".
The banner is simply the little "WarRockShop" on top left of the new skin: which would need a little revamp.
The header is the massive 2000x238 background image that appears on board's index when you are not logged in.

The header will act as a big publicity for Shattered Crystal, therefor you need to:

You are strongly suggested to:
- Use ShatteredCrystal.com's themes and colors and include their logo.
- You may include G1 Credits or images related to WarRock premiums and such things. Avoid using copyrighted images.

Do anything you want, as long as the final result looks "superb".

Requirements:
- No text is required, only the background image.
- You must conserve all sizes of the curent images and it should not exceed 150kb.
- Keep in mind it must be suitable for all screen resolutions.

If you think you are skilled enough for this, post your submission in this topic. The winner will be awarded $50 Paypal!

May the best win.

It was initially $25, but I thought it would be good to raise the bar.

Indirectly, yes (ie. when was the last donation).
I wish WRS to be self-financed by Shattered Crystal's referrals, as donations are now becoming extremely rare, and this would require a maximal, high quality exposure.
Don't forget the banner is an insane 2000 pixels width: it's a lot of job and I'm expecting something superb on it's first half, while the rest may be neglected.

If someone wants to contribute to the forum for free, he/she's welcome to make something of a lower scale such as new user bars.

It will end when something worth $35 or nice enough is posted.

There's no other requirements/directions than the ones posted above: take the actual banner and make it better and more suitable for WarRockShop/Shattered Crystal.

Thanks everyone for your interest/participation.

Wot?
2000px wide?

I did drop out, I don't know at all what to make and how xd

[Lurk26]

2000px, i dont get it
most people are running at less than 1680 or so resolution. whats the point of 2000px long banner and then squeezing it?

[Blueday]

Could you tell me the exact size and information of it and I'll make it instantly for you, and it will be AWESOME.

Right click the image -> Property -> Size.

I'll be happy to fund this. I think it's a good contest, could make it into a digital arts portfolio if the contestant so chooses, and if there is a chance that this site could be self-financed, that's awesome.

[Blueday]

Umm... I don't know at all what I should have done.

I tried something, I'll add more of these after a while, just woke up x.x

[Lurk26]

oh so you meant 200 px -.-

[Soapy]

So should we disregard the grey-black gradient that is currently the "background" of the banner?

Log out the forum and check out the massive 2000x238 (two thousand pixels by 238) background image with colored bubbles: that's what I'm looking for.
This is where it says: "WarRockShop needs a new banner, right behind this text, for it's new skin!"... Quite self-explanatory?

The 200x52 banner is secondary - and that one is on a transparent background, therefor the gradiant isn't important.

Thanks for trying iPwn.

[WeedIsNeat]

i don't really see the point in this,since wrs is quite dead or are you planning on something?^^

[Blueday]

Well, I finally understood (thanks :P)
And tried to make something (does it need that text?):

And remember to tell if it is good at all, and tell if it would need improvements, I mostly do GFX while chatting trough x-fire etc. so I can ask what to make better :d

[Soapy]

Bambell, thank you for editing the original post to make it much more clear.

I am working on one which will take a few days.
