December/Christmas Banner Contest!

Post by **Tiff** » Sat Nov 13, 2004 11:44 pm

Winter and Christmas are coming up, and so is the SMU Christmas banner contest!

For the banner that will be displayed throughout November/December, I want to display a banner with a Sailor Moon winter or christmas theme on it!

1) Your banner must depict a winter or christmas theme from Sailor Moon. It can be either from manga, PGSM, or anime.
NOTE: ALL PICTURES MUST BE TASTEFUL. No pictures depicting gratuitous nudity or sexual poses, please. If you wish to display TASTEFUL and slight nudity, show the picture to me first and I will either okay it or refuse it. Obviously, complete nudity is not allowed.
2) Banner must be 300 x 137 in size and in GIF or JPG format. You may submit up to 2.
3) If you use someone's fanart, you MUST have their permission first, and if they want credit, you MUST credit them somewhere on the banner.
4) The banner needs to say "Sailor Moon Uncensored Forums" and have the url, "http://www.smuncensored.com" on it. This must be done in a readable font (this includes size, style, and color)
5) In order to enter, you must have been a member for at least two weeks and an ACTIVE POSTER AS OF TODAY. Anyone who joins the forums after this is NOT ELIGIBLE. This isn't to be mean, but I don't want people joining just for the contest, and we have too many members who have never posted or have only posted once or twice. If you are unsure as to whether you qualify as an "active member", contact me.

GUIDELINES:

1) Please try to use a picture of decent quality.
2) Please try to use a readable font. I cannot stress this enough.
3) Be creative! Don't just paste chibiusa with a christmas tree floating around near her. Use some imagination!

THE DEADLINE IS SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20. I know it's short, people (sorry!) but I want a lot of entries, like for Halloween!

Prizes are as follows:

1st: Banner displayed Nov. 21- Dec.4 , avatar made by me.
2nd: Banner displayed Dec. 5 - Dec.18, avatar made by me.
3rd: Banned displayed Dec. 19 - Dec.31, avatar made by me.

NOTE: Becuase I love Christmas so much, I am going to TRY to have some real prizes available. I have given out a burned copy of the sailor moon christmas cd before, so I may try that again. I will try to think of something to give out.

I would like you to upload the banner to your webspace (if you have one) and paste the link here, so that everyone may view your creation. If you do not have webspace, email it to me, and I'll upload it for you. DO NOT POST THE IMAGE ITSELF HERE.

Have fun, and I hope we get a lot of entries!

I'm in. Starting experimental work on my first idea now.

Edit next night: Okies, first one done: http://img123.exs.cx/img123/9084/SMUChr ... r1Mars.jpg

Edited later: Second entry finished. My husband helped with the idea for Luna in this one, hehe. The rest was just fun to do. I hope the idea of the main text and the Sailor Moon being Christmas lights came across okay.

I chose to do fanart for mine. Both of them involve Michiru.

Here's one of an SD Michiru holding a Christmas gift:

Here is one of Haruka and Michiru under mistletoe leaning in to kiss:

Tiffu-san, you didn't really think I'd give up on you right ?

!

I only made one this time, only because I didn't want to rush it and make a second-crappy-banner-just-for-the-sake-of-it.

LOL!

Sooooo here I am, with Chisaki Hama (from PGSM) starring this banner

I love your banner of Rika, Akarui! Just as a side note, Chisaki Hama changed her stage name to Rika due to licencing issues or something.

Awwww, it's cute, Guru! ^_^ Akarui, I was actually wondering how long it would take for someone to do something with that pic.
