Hi all. I am wondering if there is anyone here who would be willing to contribute their graphic skills and help Bleeping Computer out by making some banners for this site that friends have offered to put on their sites.

I have attempted to make some, but I am severely lacking in artistic ability :thumbsup:

If anyone out there would be willing to help we would be greatly appreciative.

If I contribute my hopeless skills do you think there is a chance I might be able to pick up some better ones some where along the way to replace them?

Let us not just mention these banners. How about a sneak preview?

Hey my e-mail is down. I will get the banner to you as soon as its functional again. Unless you need it sooner, I can find other means of getting it to you.

Hi all,
I take it your after one of those little advertising logos which are so popular at the moment on many sites.

.

If i got the wrong end of the stick here and it's a full webpage banner, then just let me know.

Thanks for the banner :thumbsup:

I am essentially looking for banners that I can put on other peoples sites for advertisement purposes. I have had offers from members here and from friends to put banners on their sites, so it is what you are expecting.

Ataryu is working on some stuff for us right now and if he wishes, he will post it for others to see. Basically looking for different banners of different sizes that I can put on a page here with link instructions so people can place them on their websites to support bleepingcomputer.

Thank you for clearing that up.
So i would imagine that your looking for something quite small, as most people don't want your banner being the focal point of their page.
Seeing you already have someone taking care of this for you i wont post anymore ideas, i don't like stepping on people's toes :thumbsup:

LOL.

Chief.

How about a contest for banners, and the members vote on the ones that they like the most...I would not think that it would be stepping on anyones toes, and would show many people the skills that are here. It would also show the members that they have a little say in what the advertisment would look like.

We are all curious like a cat. We wonder, we ask, we learn.
Please post back when a suggestion works, so that others may learn.

I think a contest would be a great idea :flowers:
