It is August and that means school is resuming for a lot of people in the world. College, High school, secret ninja training? Whatever..
Theme: Schooling (Schools, training , Knowledge, eduction, life lessons, etc...)
Medium: 450 x 150 or 600 x 100 banner and an avatar
If you have any questions feel free to ask. Please feel free to be inventive with the theme as well. I left it vague to cover all kinds of things from martial arts, swordplay, to magic. It also covers simple things like specific schools or military and drills. Anime, real life, or magic.. Just have fun with it.
This week will close on the 23rd along with week 187 and week 185
I figure I'll enter, I'm using a very Simple Graphics editor.
Let me know what you guys think of it so I know whether or not If I should keep competing.
Keep competing - it's the only way to get better. It's how I got started. I was very frustrated in the beginning - first it was the fact that I couldn't get into the top three for the champion poll (seemed to get very few votes), then it was that I could do that but always got second or third. It comes with practice, and a little bit of imagination. Slowly, but it does come.
Regarding the banner, it'd look better if you got rid of the thin gray line that was around the edge of the Sonic gif/jpg. Having "old school" in a pixelated, old video game font, or in the "SEGA" font would help tie it together, too.

I'm sorry, Krackshott. I tried to catch you online, but the avatar is not the appropriate size for the contest. I had shrunk it myself, but didn't want to show favoritism.

About the Sonic banner... Maybe having a bit more decoration in the background than plain white might be good.
The candles burn out for you; I am free.
EDIT: I know the avatar's too big, I just made it that big so people could see it properly. If I need to make it smaller, I will.

EVERYONE, DON'T FORGET YOUR AVATARS. This also means resizing them to the appropriate forum specs 100 x 100 or smaller
btw, I need theme ideas.
I do, but it's already 9:30 PM here, so I actually have less than 3 hours. Nonetheless, that should be enough.
And, of course, I will PM you some ideas when I come up with them. Like, after finishing the entry.
I'm sorry, Krackshott. I tried to catch you online, but the avatar is not the appropriate size for the contest. I had shrunk it myself, but didn't want to show favoritism.
