I made this in paint. laugh I copied a bit from the UGN banner above for the background then pixel painted the borders and barely noticeable 3D effect for the text.

Well look around the site, theres the color scheme, we plan on keeping the scheme pretty much as is.

As for theme, use your immagination, have fun always.

dammit curse!! :\

I will try to make some and get them in. I need a place to host them though, will ugn's board let try to use a txt as an image? I have heard I can rename the image .txt on a lycos server and it will work. It gave me crap about it not being a valid image type on other boards though. I will edit this post with the images when I make them.

black^Pimp, your picture wasn't 468*60

What about animated buttons Giz? I might make something animated.

And goodness gracious people, don't [censored] on sin's work. You wanna discourage people from posting their art? At least HIS banner had the right dimensions.

For the images out of porportion you can just change the sizes, it won't throw some off too much, bp's for example doesn't even look like it wasn't made in that hehe..

Flash is not allowed. Images NEED to say site names.

Yes, hostnuke also since we need a good button to have their advertising on UGN since they offer us free space.

CS i know about that [censored] button and i know what i'm doing so shut up and stop being a smartass ok, watch your own [censored]' bussines !!

Gizmo i'll correct my button and when i finish the other work i'll publish them all together in one post ok.

BackSlash your banner is good, but i think that if you outline the letters with BLUE color it'll look much better.. i think you should try that !!

just a suggestion bro !! no offense !!

thanks

looks good, if you work on it anymore, you might consider blurring the background like my original, i liked that part of it. however, its easier to read the words in yours, good work.

yeah you're right BS, i have to work on bluring the backround as you did, but i told ya i did't have so much time and didn't use photoshop at all.
But i'll tryto work on it more, maybe change something, maybe add something but something will come outta it for sure, hope it'll be good.
