Here's my entry. I just joined the forum, may I ask the way to submit my entry towards the directed account? I don't think I've seen any bottom on the user page that allow me to send a PM.

If you don't see it on your side, it's probably because your account is new, you'll have to contact a moderator for that

Thank you for telling me that! Anyhow, I don't think I have that option on my end.

When I'm trying to look up for the restrictions, it said this.

Here's my entry. I can make a marble texture background to replace the Parchment so it matches the header as well.
I made a quick HTML edit preview of what it looks like with the current light theme as well.

Alternate left-aligned version of the banner, just in case it's a consideration for smaller screens.

We fixed that, you should now have PM rights :).
 
Here's my try. The font used by FXS for the main title seems to be called Cyan and I made a simple recreation of it using Photoshop's style tools. I have also used FXS' Founders edition assets, but generated the background myself. It was my first attempt at procedurally generating any kind of material in Blender and it may have resulted in more of a tea-stained parchment than marble, but I'm proud enough of it. I extended the gold base under the FE city by creating a matching gradient over a brushed aluminium texture.

I also tried finagling with the site color scheme and HTML:

I think you will win this Sukritact, unless there are any hidden gems out there. This banner only needs one thing to be perfect. :lol:

So far my favourite. It's classy but not garish, modern but not bland.
 
Excellent job with the entries so far. Special shout-out to Gen. Washington for setting the standard :lol:. Only 3 days left, so please keep those submissions coming! :banana:
 
If I may, I decided to have another go with a dark theme. This time I'd say that I did a better job with marble generation. One note: for some reason the colors change when I upload the image here and the contrast is bumped up, even though the color space should be the same.

I tried uploading the image 10 times in different color spaces and formats, but it's still 10% darker, which annoys me to an irrational degree. The colors return to normal upon download. This is weird, because the first banner uploaded correctly. I guess it's something to be figured out.

I agree with lymond, I am positively surprised about the quality of the entries :).

Can we please get this one added as an option on the site regardless of who wins??

I might consider it :lol:.
 
Hey, I have been lurking these forums for years and only now signed up for the banner contest :)

Unfortunately I also don't have the option of sending a PM, so would someone please unlock that feature for me please?

Thank you :)
