["Semi" Contest] Guild Banner.

[gezus]

Okay gang.. I have been banging my head against my desk for 3 days. with Photoshop blockage. and now it's time to turn to my beloved Mmowned peeps.

I have just started a 10man "Exclusive" Hard mode guild. specifically for the Xpac. I have named is <Schematic> and am looking for a kick ass, awesome banner.

So I leave it to you folks. I have tried over 9k different styles, and such.. and I am unhappy with all of them. I just want to see what you guys would do with the Idea.

The only guidelines are.
a) Must say <Schematic>
b) Looking for approximately the same sized banner as the current MMowned banner.
c) No holds barred... it can have wow stuff in it. It can just be a cool 3d render. It can be anything.

I don't have much incentive to offer, though I do have some saved up Rep to hand out. Go to it Mmownedites! ..

*Edit* Having the right side of the banner less cluttered so that I can insert renders of the 10 main raiders characters would be cool. However that is also not mandatory.

What color do you want?

What color do you want?

No holds bared. We are Horde. Have fun with it. Like I said I have done over 9k versions and am unhappy with all. Just wanna see what other folks will do with the idea :P

I hope you like it If you think the writing is a little plain/standard, tomorrow (If your willing to wait that long) I can edit it, but I don't have the time right now.

Pros:
Horde Logo
Size

Cons:
Wow Logo
Color scheme
Font
"We will not stand down" quote.

Great try. Not quite what I am after :P ..

Don't give up!

Well, you need to tell us what you actually want, you cant just say make a banner without giving us anything..

Not really much of a banner maker, but hey. I gave it a shot.

I don't see what is so complicated about what I asked? .. the whole point is to see what other people would do with a simple Idea. Regardless of how much I like it... The pros and cons are just a fact of life .. Pros = stuff I like, Cons = Stuff I don't like.

Well. You have the right Idea. I like the <Scematic> part. Still not sure abou the "We will not stand down" quote. I think I am after a bit more color as well.

So far this is my favorite. I love the blur effect. and it seems to work with adding the character.

On a side note. I FINALLY did one myself that I actually like. What you guys think?

A sample- i still have the psd but only the horde characters are editable; some extra blending on the characters for when you get decent cuts of your guild's; i suggest the ghostly feel to it.

filebeam auto using jpeg even though png was upped

edit: upon review right side seems a bit dark; meh if you warrant it i can lighten it up a bit as well as provide the psd.
