Hi, I need an avatar made, to advertise mysticky.net. The avatar must be 80 x 80 maximum as that is DPs size limit. As far as text goes, put in it whatever you like, make sure the URL is there though, and it's readable. Prize is $10, and there will be a second place prize of $2.50 (Generous I know ). I'll pick a winner on sunday or before if I see something that is perfect for my needs. Constant feedback will be provided as I know how important it is to you. Good luck, also it would be nice if you would post if you are considering giving it a go Thanks! -Hecky.
neilparnham - The design is great, but I'm going to ask you to make it portray that the pad is updatable, in some way, I have no idea how you will do that so it will take some thinking. On a more technical side though, I think I would like an inner stroke, 1px wide, and make it a light grey, like it is on my avatar now. Also, make the mysticky.net texts anti-alias method to strong or anything apart from none. Having said that though, if this contest was over and yours was the best I would be happy to have it Hope this helps, -Hecky.
neilparnham - It's looking great , no further feedback for you, except that if you want to try it using the blackboard and sticky note I have in mysticky, then that would be something to try. Creative_illusion - I think that this avatar is slightly plain. As you can see, neilparnhams one has managed to fit a design, url and picture into an 80x80 space. If you could, it would be great if you could get some more information, and more of a design rather than just the sticky note if you see what I mean? Thanks again -Hecky.
ok neil, final adjustment and if it looks good I'll go for you. Take out the box that says update text, and move that border line up to underneath mysticky.net, then replace the blackboard with the sticky note I use, and move the bottom border up, making room for text underneath. That text should be "Edit threads and emails after they've been sent" The text on the blackboard should't be so big either. and if different colors are available, that would be great.
Ah, 80x80 really is too small . I need that text in there, but I would also like more of a graphic, I guess you can't have the best of both worlds . Will decide in an hour or two, although I can't give specific feedback, feel free to try variations. Thanks again -Hecky.
