I voted for 1, 2 and 7.

I liked how crisp 1 looked, the text is great and i think it would fit on the forum really well.

2 is my favourite, it's simple and nice and I like the text a lot. There's really nothing to complain about with this.

7 is very different with the colouring and stuff and the font with the 3D effect is very cool. Some of the pictures don't fit that well imo but it's still good.

i think the colours and the tones and the lights are really great in them all. i couldn't pick a favourite so i voted for them all.

great work guys!!!!!

edit: Six sorry i did not read the rules. please just put me down for 1,3 and 5.

#thanks

Disregarding your votes, and DQed from voting for you, Jim.

I'm voting 1, 7 and 8. All three of them have a different look than the usual banners made for the forum. 7 and 8 are by far my favourites.

please see my post above. also i do not have any entries here so how could i vote for myself?

 

[Donald Trump]

They were all so excellent that I lost control and voted for all of them.

As in you're disqualified from voting in this poll.

 

[Big Casino]

mits you entered twice i can tell! EDIT: or maybe not

Voting 1 5 and 8

 

[Marquis of Granby]

but i've already voted in the poll.

you could just count the votes for 1,3 and 5 as it was a genuine mistake

 

[Donald Trump]

Also I am still allowed to submit an entry?

 

[Six]

Just state your votes normally pick three, and go ahead. If you can't do that, then no, you'll be disqualified.

 

[Marquis of Granby]

i think you're being a bit awkward here Six. we have made genuine mistakes and you won't consider our votes.

 

[Six]

My personal opinion, you don't just go in, select everything in a poll, then claim it's an accident. However, you stated your votes normally, if Hal can, he's free to enter like the rules say within the next 24 hours, and your votes are not DQ-ed. If that's all? I'd like to get this thread back on track.

Thanks.

 

[Donald Trump]

I vote only for number 2.

 

[Six]

Poll removed. Those who want to vote have to post their three picks (or less, up to you) in this thread.


Those who already posted, you don't have to re-post. Just to "clarify."

 

[Exoskeleton]

2, 5, and 8 were my favorites. (sorry for voting 4 )

They're all really excellent entries but I really liked 5 and I think the other two are very different but cleanly done. Well done to all who participated.

 

[C i d]

I am voting for #1 , #7 and #8

Number 1 is my favourite of them all. I can easily tell how much effort has been put into this one. Not only that, the hard work has obviously conjured a really creative piece that really summarizes the series well. I can't help but to smile when I see those nostalgic cutscenes featured. Lovely background too! Just near perfection! Well done to the artist.

Number 7 has quite a different feel from the rest. I really like the text and the nice background effect! The lighting is captivating. However, if I were to be really picky, perhaps Cloud and Lightning do not fit the banner here, as they are 3D renders. Full 2D renders may suit this banner better, I guess? Otherwise it's pretty.

Number 8 has great soft colors. Oh gosh, the blending of Yuffie and Cloud. It's really good. The characters surprisingly go well together in this banner. Good idea on how some characters are in the background while some are in the focus. Perhaps the text can be made more obvious, but again, it's still great.


Great job everyone!

 

[Steve-O]

my votes go to 2, 5 and 8, I love the fact the faces can't be seen, 5 looks pretty awesome, loving the text too. I find 8 really colorful, which will be a very nice change for the banner as we normally have dark themed banners.

 

[Noblesse Oblige]

My vote will go to 2, 3 and 5. 2 is for the same reason Steve stated, the fact that you can't see the tops of their faces makes it seem quite mysterious. 3 and 5 are pretty neat, and 3 has lots of bright colors.
