Congratulations to all the applicants that advanced and hard luck to the ones who didnt.

The Next Task:
Designing a banner for IWF
Here you can include wrestlers in it if you want.
Its a banner for showing how creative you can be by using your imaginations to create an IWF banner.
the size should be 550x700 (Exactly)
Colors: Up to you.
DQ: no premade graphics to be included in this task. (ie: dont include things you made before in this)
Hints: You may use extra text in it, not just the IWF text if you want to.

The Deadline: 30th June

Good luck.

Good job guys. I didn't think I would make it. Kinda surprised I got an 8.5 seeing as how I in some people's eyes I don't even deserve a 7 on some of my work ;-).

Good luck to all who advanced. Lets make this round something to remember.

Personally I loved the bg effect on yours I thought it looked excellent.

One of the other reasons some of the scores may be slightly skewed is the fact that I know nothing about gfx at all. I'm rating on aesthetics, and overall attractiveness of the peice. So my ratings have nothing to do with how long it may have taken, or how complicated it is. For me its all about how good it looks.

wait a sec.....sorry for posting AGAIN....but is this supposed to be more of a poster....because the way you've put it its portrait....but a banner is landscape right??? or is the sizes the other way round like 700 width and 550 height ??

Yes Untouchable, 550 width and 700 height. thats the format in any gfx software, the width is stated first.

I dont want to sound rude or anything but...

Raw Enegry gets a low score but not following the rules, BUT Noodle gets a high score when the size of his is way off from what is stated in the rules?

In this case there was a large difference between the two.

A minor difference in size is tolerable while Raw Energy totally missed the point of the challenge.

That was my reasoning.

And just to let you know, WS said that it had to be at least 500x300.....it could be bigger, just not smaller

Yes, but i did mention the word ATLEAST in that sentence. So you can have the size i stated as a minimum requirement. Anything that is bigger will be accepted. so 500x300 and bigger will be accepted in the first task. I hope i made it clear now.

And for Untouchable, i want a poster, not a title banner. so it will be 550 width and 700 height. We dont want a title banner as its not authorized.

Good luck to everyone.

Oh fuck, i just made such a kickass entry, only to realise its IWF and not just IW. Does it HAVE to be IWF, or can it be IW and then mention how its a kickass FORUM underneath?
