2017 Banner Submission Thread
« on: Jan 17, 2017, 03:17 PM »
It's been a while since Toast implemented the new theme on the site, and neither he nor I ever quite got around to posting the actual dimensions of the header images so y'all can submit new banners!

The tricky thing about our new banner dimensions is that it's (obviously) very skinny, and on top of that it's set up to loop endlessly if you stretch out your banner horizontally. I've been advising people to create a banner that's at least 2300px wide, but that's actually somewhat misleading, so here's the real deal:

All banners should be 150px tall. After that, you have two options for your banner width:

  • Non-repeating banner: a 4k monitor would be 3840px wide. A 27" iMac is 2560px wide. An HD monitor (1080p) would be 1920px wide. I would recommend making your image at least 1920px wide. If you want to be an overachiever, keep those larger widths in mind and just use your best judgment. Just remember that the banner WILL still repeat, but only if someone has a very wide monitor.
  • Repeating banner: these can be literally any width! The goal with these is to make a pattern that seamlessly repeats and will look good at any screen width. Most of our current banners are this kind of banner. As long as it is 150px tall and repeats seamlessly, you're golden. If you have questions about how to accomplish this, feel free to ask me (or just hit up other artists; I'm sure I'm not the only one who knows how to make a repeatable pattern).

I hope that clears up any confusion regarding banners. When you've got one you'd like posted up, please share them here or send them to staff[member=776]enterVOID[/member].com. And if they don't show up, feel free to bug me :)

NOTE: All banner submissions are subject to staff approval. We reserve the right to turn a banner down if it violates community guidelines or is otherwise deemed inappropriate or unfitting for the site.

Hopefully this works! I'm hoping it'll actually turn out functional!

I promise the next one will be less self-indulgent than 'all the people I've fought with Hunter', haha.
