It needs shrinking is more the point. It has to be 75 pixels high. That's 195 pixels high.

I get that but plenty of things can be shrunk once the design is agreed on

Oh absolutely. But the height restriction is a bit of a pain. It's difficult to do anything that interesting with so little space.

I love these so far. Might I make a suggestion? Replace chemic with a player or a real viking. Or on smurfs effort, needs to be smaller, not sure we can use Thor, otherwise, fantastic. Love the ambiance.

Tbf Rich that would be class

Nice use of negative space.

I would put my photoshop skills to good use but there is little point putting any effort into anything that is 776 x 75 pixels.... 75 pixels in height is just ludicrous and cannot incorporate anything whatsoever of any significance in the design.

Ok so I couldn't resist drafting one...



It's difficult to work with such a small amount of space but if people like this I can add some finishing touches.

Nice effort HatedandAdored, but does the banner imply we have a similar level of support as Quins?

Well the idea was to capture the seats with the word Vikings but with so little space it will have to sit behind the text, a bit more tweeking will make the background stand out more.. It didn't take me long as I'd only spend time enhancing it if people wanted to use it.

we kick so much ass do we even need a banner? surely its just obvious who we are and what we are about on here? we are just that awesome

What we going with then?

Really like them! Would vote for such a design.

This reduced size makes things difficult, so I kept it simple:



Resized:

Pepe that looks great mate, let's get it up dalto.

Right we need to sort this now. I like all these. Unfortunately we're a bit limited because the size appears to have changed. We need some sort of poll sorting out. If those who've already put some forward alter the size it would be much appreciated and I'll get it sorted.

Love those Pepe. From a personal perspective I'd be voting for them.

In fact if we don't have any objections I'd be happy to just use those?

No complaints here!

They're both the same one, but one is rezied to fit the page. The other is the full size and made to the new specifications of 766 x 75 pixels. So it's ready to go. I'm not sure if it just needs to be turned from a Jpg to a Gif image though.

I reckon there's still time for a few others to have a go, before the start of the season. Then we can vote on it, or something. We need to get it done though, because the one we now have looks all wrong, thanks to the resize.

I'd wait for few weeks in case more images become available

I think we need a deadline now though. Maybe the end of January?

Then an open vote amongst Widnes fans from this board, rather than a poll, which would end up being corrupted by evil little trolls from other boards.



We can't leave it too much longer though, because the old one looks ridiculous now. Once you have a deadline people will be motivated to get theirs done. Then we can finally put this thing to bed.

Go for it. Don't say I didn't tell you. Ha

Seriously. The one above is fine and no probs it being used
