Now your chance for you to decide what CivicForums.com will look like and earn some vBPlaza points (cash) for when we reinstall vBPlaza. Yup, you heard me right, there's been a HUGE demand to get vBPlaza back and it's gunna happen.

Here's how the rules go:

There are 6 different themes to the site, so there's lots of chances to win.
We will not just be picking one winner. Chances are there will be many.

Using the background image of a theme, create a header image that is awesome.

All legit entries will earn 5 vBPlaza points.
Any image we use as a header image will be 20 vBPlaza points.

The "best of the best" will automatically be moved to Premium Membership, which should open for you the 'Premium Members Sections', additional 100 vBPlaza points, larger sig limit, and larger image uploads.

The moderation team and I will be keeping our eyes out for really good entries and you can submit more than once.

So go open whatever graphic program you use and lets see some entries. The sooner we pick a winner, the sooner I have to install vBPlaza so I can give out your points.

The few that I've worked on...

So the following submission will recieve a minimum of 35 points

3 x (5 points) for legit submission
1 x (20 points) for the carbon image which we've been using

Someone has to be willing to give some sort of competition to this or else Rufus will get all the points.

lol I know there are better Photoshoppers out there than me. Lets see what you guys have got!

Use your own cars even!

And the winner is
drum roll please....

"Rufus"

No not just yet, but somebody has to give this guy some sort of competition.

Did I mention participation in this will get vBPlaza on the site.

It was politely pointed out to my by Triz that this section was closed for posting by regular members.

This would explain why there has been no entries for the header image competition. This section should now be open to all members and where you can give any feedback about the site that you want.

So maybe some of you already have images that you worked on and were waiting to upload. Now is the time to do it.

5pts each submission
20pts if we use it

and if it just plain rocks, then you get premium membership and all that other stuff I talked about in the first post in this thread.

so do the entries need a space for that banner ad?

civicDave

yes, we will have to fit a 468 banner in the header.

Do your best to stay within the width of the existing header image.

350px wide would fit.

Current image is 286x186, on Carbon, so you're saying the image can be much larger?

civicDave

height should remain at 126
but width can go to 350.

A better image would be 318px wide if we wanted to try and please people that still run 800x600

But yeah you can make a wider image if you would like
