Help Neowin with a Tower

[Steven P. Administrators]

EDIT: this is humcheepings tower for Neowin, can you do better (if you wanted to?) you can add a small credit to yourself and if we like what we see we'll add it :D

it has to be 120x600 no bigger or smaller please.

Just add what you come up with here as an attachment, for unregistered members Click here to view what I am talking about.

whats it for?

can it be colourful

or u want it to be kept simplistic

[Steven P. Administrators]

Theres no limit on that, simplistic and colorful are both welcome because we can add as many as we want

[Schmoove]

Ok I wanna know a couple of thing before I try:

1) What is this for?

2) What should be on it (text and stuff)?

3) What does it have to reflect?

4) Where is this 'Tower' (or banner whatever) gonna be placed?... back to Q1... what's the purpose?

Thanks :)

EDIT: Can it be Flash also?

Looking at the main page, it seems that it is for the ad located on the right side of the page - those dimensions seem to fit...

Still.... it needs to be an advertisement for what?

Invision? Neowin?

[Redmak Administrators]

neowin, invision ... all ok

Our ad company doesn't show payed ads everytime single time a visitor comes to the site. The times they don't they show a white tower. We can add our own towers instead.

Just like the invision banners at the top of the site. They only appear when payed ads are not available

[Schmoove]

Ok, I'll let my 'creative brain' (wish I had a better one though) do some thinking tonight then.

I'm just kiddin'

The column will only be shown for someone who paid some money, right?

[Darran]

Invision is Neowin's host, they don't have to pay :blink:

[Darran]

OK I had a try, and this is what I came up with, I need your opinions on colours if you do't like them and someone can better it for me if they like. ;) I want your opinions, I know people don't like flashy stuff so it is a jpg at the moment. :shifty: .

Whistler.

[Mardagg]

I like it Whistler, but it's kind of hard to read the "Free" on the top. You might wanna move the "Only from.." with the logo down a bit so it fills up some of the dead area. Other then that.. it looks very very professional.

[Darran]

OK This will be the only update this evening (i'm nackard) but here is some improvements on my original.

Whistler. :sleep:

[Mardagg]

Oh yeah! That looks sweet!

[Briandl79]

Can I pay for a tower ad? :D

[xpablo]

Second tower looks better ! (Y) (Y)

[tytanic11]

looks great.. not much like advertising, more part of the neowin theme

[Jon]

I like it whistler, tytanic is right, it kinda fits the theme.

[humcheepeng]

I was kinda bored...

How's this?

[wildliquid]

im liking whistlers second version... more of a neowin feel to it

[humcheepeng]

im liking whistlers second version... more of a neowin feel to it

:cry:

[mimeryme]

humcheepeng, your version is good too, but reminds me too much of symantec's line of software

[sphere]

A couple here. Very nice humcheepeng :)

[humcheepeng]

Thanks for your "consolations". BTW I wasn't suicidal or anything, just bored...

:D

[Briandl79]

humcheepeng, yours is quite good, just change the colors to go along with the site and it's perfect.
