Rotating banners every 3 months is fun, right? I hope? 🙂
We’re looking for a summery banner to use next season. How many we’ll use is up to how many we like, but it may just be 1.
There are a few rules that are different, so please read.
1. Banners must be 800×250. Please do not round edges or do anything of that sort.
2. Banners can comprise of characters of any series chihiro has subbed since January 2009, or ef.
3. Banners are not allowed to have males in them. Females only.
4. Banners must not show nipples, vaginas, or uncovered butts. AKA, characters must have at least pantsu and a bra on.
5. Banners must be submitted by 10:00 AM on June 5th Eastern Standard Time. Please use https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/usa/eastern-time/ to see what time it is in your area.
6. There is a limit of one banner per comment. If you wish to submit more, please make multiple comments with 1 banner contained in them. YOUR COMMENT WILL BE IGNORED AND DELETED BY WORDPRESS IF YOU POST MORE THAN ONE LINK IN IT.
You can make submissions as comments in this thread.

@ Justas…
Quit being such a dick. Spelling mistakes happen when you work on this at 1 am. Gees… ever heard of the save feature in photoshop? It allows you to recall the image and add changes…
Shees.
Here’s the corrected version.

Moe-moe-kyun!
And are we allowed to use other people’s fanart without permission? Do you care? Mine above was a screen shot from your release played around in photoshop.

Ortix, I never said i didn’t like your banner or that it sucks or anything, I just wanted to point out the spelling error.
@justas
it just sounded weird the way you posted. May god forgive your sins lol
Wow, you guys, stop grabbing others art, typing Chihiro subs over it and claim it as yours.
Not cool.
3 complaints.
1. Wide things are annoying to fill up and fit things into as people are typically tall and skinny.
2. God I forgot how much I hate cutting out hair.
3. Why are there so few quality Asura Cryin pics out on the web?
That being said, here ya go.

keep going guys =P
there were quite some good examples 😉
3. Banners are not allowed to have males in them. Females only.
Dammit, I wanted to see a Hosaka banner
@ People who are complaining about stealing art
Well what do you want us to do? Draw our own pictures and CG them…
Rendering those characters and adding a few effects is still ‘stealing’ Just like plagiarism. If you use a quote from somewhere without citation it’s exactly the same as simply using the original document as your work.
I know its not any qood but heres mai entry!

Honestly, I was focused so much on Melon, Yell, and Najimi, that I forgot Kakeru was even there! lol

@Mauneydy-kun
Thanks 😉
@Otrix
I was going to do an R+V one too, featuring Mizore (<3) but since the rules said from Jan2009 onwards I backed off and did K-on instead. But thinking about it… it wouldnt hurt to submit one anyway.
oh wel.. i might try as well

Well… to be honest I don’t really feel like doing static chihiro grafic. Sorry guys. BUT I do feel like doing dynamic one (though I’m steel learning how). So here goes the question: Are flash .swf files accepted? Even if you say ‘no’ I’ll probably present my results next time, cause I’m in the middle way now.
Just a Question…
can I put my personal watermark on the banners?..
2nd one :

Stolen picture, and not much effort, but anyway:

… that x250 size makes it tough 🙂
Here’s my crappy entry. (It’s prolly been submitted already, but I can’t be assed to check.)
http://f.imagehost.org/0797/ChihiroSummerBanner.png
Amazingly, no matter what color I picked for the font, it never seemed to look good. ;_;
Perhaps a mention of what’s allowed and disallowed as far as artwork would be good? “stolen”-wise, that is.
It’s not all that tough to find and contact the original artist if you use a fanart, or at the very least, mention the artist’s name (so someone else can ask them perhaps). Most artists will happily let you use their artwork, but you’ve gotta ask first before they can do that.
As an artist myself, I personally don’t mind my art being used, but on the condition that whoever is using it has the decency to ask my permission before they take it. And in this particular case, if Chihiro is the one that will ultimately end up using the banner, it’s them that will get in trouble for hosting pilfered pictures. And that’s not cool.
awww it’s weird that I didn’t see the word “Summery”
oh well…
I hope this is summery enough 🙂

Nah, I just meant stolen as it a screen cap rip … and then edited myself 🙂
Most if not all the pictures people have submitted are taken from someone else or a screen cap and then edited.
… though my Yamamoto pic I posted in a Hatsukoi thread back in May was a “trace” i.e. I did actually ‘create’ it from scratch just drawing the outlines via tracing/adjusting over a bunch of screen caps … and then colouring and shading it …
If anyone is actually drawing the characters themselves … then that is way impressive!
Lastly I should add that most of the pictures you find on the net (not screen caps) are hard to find who drew them unless you find the pic on the actual site of the person who drew it … and are usually taken from some other original copyright source anyway …
That source would be a copyright character design or even based on a screen image from a copyright anime show.
I don’t think anyone around here will care too much about that … considering that’s effectively exactly was a fansub is anyway … 🙂
o_o. Just going to give my best I guess….
