Scorpio
The next competition, boys and girls and HQ, is to make a sig based on Best UK Forums. You can do whatever you like, so long as it is size 500 x 120 as normal and has the words bestukforms.co.uk in it.

Entries must be PMd to just me this time as AB is having problems with his computer. Entries must be sent to me by 7pm this Thursday. Voting begins some time after that.

Good luck everyone first.gif

Hey I missed that too.

Mind you, I'd have corrected the mistake when it was pointed out and just replied to you with "I have no idea what you are talking about."

I don't know if mine are good or bad, that's not for me to judge. But I've noticed I prefer a particular style when making my sigs for this comp. and even if there are five or six, I'd bet I can spot Babylons too, she has a style too.

Gods yes!!! I do the same, mine was not the best in the last round. I am just looking at styles.
Scorpio

For me, thats what forum sigs are all about. Simple, clean and ties in with the colour scheme of the forum. The monitor bit is very clever too
tuscan
Dont get me wrong i think its a great idea and i want the program there using to do it with...............

But for me i like to see a bit more of an effort and creating stuff from there own minds but thats just me ITS ALL GOOD NO WORRIES ........................ yes2.gif
Scorpio
Hey dont worry, you're allowed to disagree with me poke.gif
I know where you're coming from
tuscan
I keep looking at mine wondering what i can do better ??????????????
Scorpio
Theres nothing wrong with it at all. Its a good sig but i dont think it works for promoting a forum
tuscan
i didnt realise it was for promoting the forum i just thought it was a sig???? shrug.gif
Scorpio
Well it wasnt said but thats what sigs based on forums are all about. Mind you this is just my opinion, others might have different views
tuscan
Bugger !!! i messed right up there didnt i ?????
andy1960
OK thats my vote in have not gone for the most voted even tho it is really good and i love the members popping up but it's a lasy one i think. I went for the first one well done everyone clap2.gif
FBG
Voted for no.1, liked no.5 aswell
andy1960
Great minds think alike FBG clap2.gif
Babylon
I went for 1 too, love the colour and it's clean, sharp fresh looking....5 is very clever though yes2.gif
Harlequin
Oh woe! Is no-one going to speak of the third one? sorry.gif

Can you not see it's artistic depth? The plain white background speaking of the nihilism of the human condition, of the clash of colours in the text representing the whole futility of the second world war? The childlike (no doubt intentional) quality of the whole harks back to the abstractions of the Reibermiester era of painting with it's clever use of space and lighting effects. Can no-one see the sheer genius in the lack of mouse control in that sigs creation?
I'm sure the creator of that masterpiece of graphic art, is as we speak smashing his/her head against their keyboard and screaming "pearls before swine...pearls before swine" and bursting into tears.
When all the other pathetic efforts are but a fading memory, that third sig will stick in my mind as what we are all striving to achieve. It -I'm sure- become a classic of it's genre and become a standard sig on BUKF for all members.

That might be interesting. Though I suspect my trawling porn sites might need a damn good explanation for the missus.
