Starlight Gaming Banner/Avatar Contest

[Mister_Nep]

Greetings VGEvo. I'm here today holding a contest for a podcast. Specifically, my podcast. I'm in the middle of making a podcast. Getting all the little details worked out. Anyway, the part that you all care about is the contest. Basically, me and my co-host can't design for crap. So we're having one of you all design our logo. We are Starlight Gaming Podcast. "Where the smallest star can shine brightest."

We're a multi-platform podcast (yes PC and Wii count as a platform ). Our emphasis is on niche and underrated modern games. To bring attention to the games most people don't give a second glance. If you go "Huh. I didn't even know that game existed." at least once during the podcast then I'll be happy.

So that's the kind of podcast being created. Now hopefully you can brainstorm and make a logo for us.

Specifically we need logos for stuff like signatures, avatars, and iTunes. Each different sized logo we ask for is gettting its own prize. 3 prizes in all, with a potential extra prize.

The size groups we are asking for range from 100 by 100 pixels to 500 by 200 pixels. Here's the exact requirements for each site we need a logo for.

Category 1

No size restriction, but something not overly large would be nice. JPG, or PNG.


Category 2

500 by 200 pixels or 250.0 KB (whichever is smaller). JPG, PNG, or GIF.


Category 3

100 by 100 pixels. JPG, PNG, or GIF.


Those are the exact maximums. Some are self-imposed maximums, and the actual site is ok with bigger but that's what I'd like. Do not exceed these for each size category.

For the winner of category 1 will win a download copy of Super Stardust for PS3 or PSP (your choice)

The winner of category 2 will win a download copy of Flower for PS3.

The winner of category 3 will win a Bioshock 2 Multiplayer skin code for PS3.

Please keep in mind that all prizes are for the US store.

You can submit for one category, or all 3. As an additional incentive, anyone who submits entries into all 3 categories and wins even 1 will win something extra. You will win either a $20 PSN or Xbox points card. Your choice. Note: this particular prize is coming straight out of my wallet. So be patient if multiple people win this prize, and I can't get to you immediately. You WILL get your prize.

Here are some examples of the dimensions I'm looking for:

For category 1 I want something that looks like this size:


For category 2 I want something that looks like this size:


For category 3 I want something that looks like this size:


Please send entries to slg.podcast@gmail.com. Contest ends at the end of the month.

Anyway, hope to have everyone reading this participate. Thank you for your time and good luck!

That's brilliant...
got a crazy 80's thing going that's really just perfect. But that's just my 2 cents.

Keeping with the theme I already have going, here are some pieces I worked up for the other categories. I want to keep tweaking them but may not get a chance. Work is going to start picking up next week.
