I thought I'd join in and have a go at making a banner. Trying to think of ideas of how things should be layed out was harder than I thought. Anyone have any ideas on how to improve this? I edited the lighting on the character to fit the background almost perfectly. I also added a motion blur behind the logo and used the match colour to get a similar gradient colour to the background. Then I added a gaussian blur to the background.

UPDATE :3
 
Ok, So I have updated it so that the guy is lower down, his head is still in the red zone but it is just his hat that is so it's not much of a problem.

This is how it could look like as the banner:

Just wanted to let you know anything in this red zone will most likely be covered up by the top banner.

Looks great! But yeah, the top would get cut off, and the dimensions are 2000x300. :3

Yeah, it's at 2000x300, I may try and make the guy smaller or lower him slightly.

Iz still small. :L Perhaps tinypic is making it smaller. :/ Also, is it tinypic that's converting it to JPG, or did you save it that way?

Seems tinypic is resizing without asking. I'll upload them to another image host. Also I saved it as a .JPG just so I could show the image as its WIP.

 

 

Edit: I've uploaded the new image to ImageShack and it's working fine.



Also, I just made a mock-up of what it would actually look like as the site's banner.

It looks great, but I'm thinking we should use a different Watch Dogs picture instead of a guy shooting a gun showing up every time we use the site.

For example: I made it more how I would like it^

Sorry I'm so stupid/noobish:  when you make banners for the site are they for your own customization or does the website actually use them?
