Contest $100 - Banner Design Contest for Guest Crew

Hello friends,

Guest Crew need some banners for advertisement - so I thought to start a contest for it.

Guest Crew is a guest blogging platform - http://www.guestcrew.com/
Blogger and Advertisers signup - advertisers start guest blogging campaigns - bloggers publishes these posts and get paid.

I need banners for both "Advertisers" and "Bloggers".

The contest prize is - $100
Paid by paypal.

The contest will end on - Tuesday - February the 11th. (11 - 02 - 2014)
Edit - The contest runs till 19th February - another week - due to low number of entries ...

The winner will have to send the banners in PSD, JPG, PNG formats and in the following sizes:

Need in two version - blogger and advertiser - so there will be 2 sets for each.
Following are the required sizes for banners.
468 px × 60 px
728 px × 90 px
336 px x 280 px
300 px x 300 px
300 px x 250 px
125 px x 125 px
100 px x 100 px
75 px x 75 px
660 px × 255 px

Edit - 100 * 72 (This is for facebook ads)

Note - I have tried to cover all formats and sizes - if, by mistake I miss out on any size, will ask you to make those for me later.

the First 2 sizes are for digital point ads, so we need the lowest size in kilo bytes possible - as they have a limitation on that. (Image should be a JPG, PNG or GIF and should be less than 50KB in size.)

I need these two banners separately for DP - with lower file size. But do include these two sizes along with the rest with regular file size too.

Text for the banners:

(You can come up with your own texts, anything catchy will do.)
Advertiser - Build Brand, Visibility, Links and Traffic.
Bloggers - Earn Money by Publishing Guest Posts on Your Blogs

Use the logo from the site - guestcrew.com - the banners must have the logo in it. You can re-create the logo creatively if you want - with the same look and feel.

What am I looking for in the Banners?
I want something good, creative stuff - reflective, shiny and web2.0 style - must look brandable. Something that will make people click and signup on Guest Crew.

Have questions? feel free to post your questions in the thread,

thanks,
Uttoran Sen,

Hey Yugo,



That is a very good entry, please also post some other formats - want to see how you make the 728*90 and the 468*60 as these will run on Digital Point,

We are going to declare a winner even if there is only one contestant ... but would be happy to have more entries, might extend the end date if required,

thanks,
Uttoran Sen,

 

What about gif?

 

Yes, I guess GIF should work as well, I even find animated GIFs running in the digital point ads ...
For these two sizes:
468 px × 60 px
728 px × 90 px

thanks,
Uttoran Sen

Hi Yugo,

Uttoran Sen,

thanks,
Uttoran Sen,

 

75 x 75 is tooooo small everything is not see able

 

@uttoransen I tried to create one animated banner. What do you think about that? This is 300x300px.

-Denisa

 

Ok! So you want 2 different sets of banners and the price is only $100? lol

 

Hey Denisa,
Nice work, those are some good animation.
Post a few other formats too.

Yes, that is mostly for forum avatars ... do it creatively - it is a challenge to fit whatever possible in such small space.
Also, the 100 * 72 is another small one but it is important as it will go to facebook ads ...

thanks,
Uttoran Sen,

 

@ mr.carn3x,
This is brilliant, this is just great

I like the 2nd part - where you show people instead of - food/money etc.

Just a question - have you drawn those images of people yourself? also - you have made a really excellent Signup button - have you created it yourself?

I have attached the file - please check.

looking foreword to your reply,
thanks,
Uttoran Sen,

 

Yes, I did the button. please check my pm.
