Offseason Challenge...Sig/Avatar tryouts - Oakland Raiders Forum | Message Board

I was thinking, since Spiderman 3 is coming soon, the draft is 3 weeks away, how about some sig challenges.

It's sort of a contest. There's no prize other than showing off your sig/avatar making talents. I know there are some very talented graphics designers out there, but I also want to see some novices out there give it a try.

This weekends theme is going to be RAIDERS(naturally) or NFL DRAFT related material combined with SPIDERMAN material.

Tonight, I will post some large approx. 1600px X 1600px 3D renders, (that I will generate myself), of Spiderman images that can be used for the artwork (although, you don't have to). Or, you can find various Spidey images on the net. I'll make several images of Spidey in different action poses and textures (Red/Blue and Black/Symbiote).

The only question is if you guys prefer the images be in a standard .PSD Photoshop format or do you want them in .TIF or .PNG?

do you have a size Dee or are we just supposed to stick to the rules of the board max 500x200?

Keep them the same size as the site rules allow (500x200). The reason why I mentioned the 1600px sized spiderman images was to let you know that they will be high quality and can be scaled down to best suit any sig. It's always easier to size DOWN an image for a sig than it is to enlarge/stretch out a small image into a bigger sig.

I'm working on some as we speak. I'll start throwing them up later tonight.
