szupie 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2005 (edited) Yeah, NilsC, can it be in flash? Also, for banner 3, you said Banner 3 should be 160x600, is that really true? That would make it more portrait like, instead of landscape.OK, nvm. Sources reveal that Banner 3 really is supposed to go vertical.

vizskywalker 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2005 Is there a time limit or recommnded time range for animated banners? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
szupie 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2005 I think that if it's an animation, it'd look best if it's looped. That's just my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vizskywalker 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2005 Right I meant for one iteration. A two minute long iteration just wouldn't make sense.Nice logos Szupie, but I think I mislead you. The fourth banner, I think, is still supposed to advertise Xisto - Web Hosting.com, but be designed to be placed on Xisto and Xisto. NilsC, if you could clarify this it would be helpful. I also recommend making the gray text a little lighter, it's too hard to read.I ought to download the Flash because making the animated gifs is taking too darn long . So right now, you have the title in the bag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
szupie 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2005 Oh... "For use on Xisto.com and Xisto.com", now I get it... Well, back to work! The drawing of the logos for Xisto and Xisto was tedious, though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vizskywalker 0 Report post Posted March 24, 2005 I'm sure they were, and if you don't mind, I'd like to use the Xisto/Xisto ad on my site here as a hosted by ad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NilsC 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2005 the first 3 banners is supposed to be for advetising Xisto - Web Hosting.com anywhere. You should make the banner as a sales pitch, or a way of promoting the paid hosting, tell about the quality. (use your own imagination ) the fourth is to use as a footer on Xisto & Xisto letting people know that the boards are hosted by Xisto - Web Hosting.com You can use your own slogan for the one to use on Xisto and Xisto (So it don't have to match what is there) szupie, nice banners..
