The Wilmarth Cafe Banner Contest has begun! Be the one to design the best banner for the Wilmarth Cafe and/or the Wilmarth Cafe forums and be declared the winner!
On or around July 31st, we will choose the best banner from the entries and will send them a copy of WARHAMMER: ONLINE. The winner will be contacted by private message and will be expected to provide contact information so we know where to send their prize. Please allow a few weeks for delivery.
Entries can be posted in this thread. So get started, and good luck!

Entrants assume originality in their product and the Wilmarth Cafe is not and will not be held liable for violations for the use of copyrighted materials. Questions may be sent to webmaster@wilmarthcafe.org for further explanation of terms of contest. No purchase necessary, contest valid everywhere except for France because they suck. Just kidding, France. You can enter too.

What exactly are you looking for? Do you want us to use the logo?

Use whatever you like. The main function of the website is a Lovecraftian mythos niche, so maybe that can inspire you. But creativity is not my forte, so beyond encouragement, I don't know how much help I can give you.

Alright thats all I really needed. I just wasn't sure if I needed to include that logo. Hopefully I'll get around to designing it. I have a lot of drawings to complete for my portfolio... >.<

Nope. As long as it's banner-like.

Try on another one. Multiple entries are perfectly alright. Hell, each banner you make increases your chances of winning!

That one is kind of good, I like that font, but I'm not sure it suits the imagery.

I tried to match the theme and feel of the main website. Simple and sharp.

This is also the same width as the forum.
Edit: Unless this is one of those things where the width of the forum depends on the size of your monitor...

I think they are both very good. I prefer the one on top but either works very well IMO.
