If anyone here has the ability and patience to create a banner for a new ME3 theory, can you PLEASE let me know?

It seemed most appropraite to put this in fan creations. Thank you all.

I do a bit of Banner work. (Here's what I've done so far.)

What specifically were you looking for?

um it's for a thread about a theory for ME3 endings.

You can view it in the link in my sig.

Something with jigsaw pieces and ME3 pics maybe, not sure.

Have a look and tell me what you think.

Did you have any particular design in mind? Like:

- Color wise = Were you looking for a particular color scheme / background gradient?

- Puzzle design = Were you hoping to have something like the entire banner in the shape of a puzzle piece, or just a few generic pieces scattered over the banner?

- Images = Which pics did you want to use? Just the ME3 logo, a particular character, setting, etc.?

- Text = Should the banner just say "The Puzzle Theory" or did you want to use a particular phrase? How about a particular font you were looking to use?

Or any other specific details like the above you were looking for?

I was going to ask about this actually. I'm a pretty strong supporter of the theory ^.

Jade would need to approve this, but here's my idea:

Make the backround a pleasant color like pastel yellow or lavender. Then create a pattern for the backround that looks like a jigsaw puzzle. On the left have "Puzzle Theory" written in big bold letters, maybe also with a jigsaw pattern to it, if that's possible. Then on the right side, have something like Mass Effect 3
                                                                        Become a supporter today! 

Just a brainstorm.

I'll try experimenting with the above and see what I can come up with.

Alright, here's my first draft of the puzzle banner. Let me know if I should tweak it anywhere.

Drop a shadow behind the text so it's easier to read.

you have RGB puzzles and one unknow black puzzle that starts to crawl around:whistle:

i don't know if i got it right so in case i'm wrong just ignore it ;)

OMG you people are AMAZING!!

Seriously, taking the time and effort out of your days to do this.

This is why BSN is a great place, ignore the trolls and haters.

Everyone coming together under one "banner" (da-dum ting)

I <3 you guys!

@ Conniving_Eagle. I like the idea. But I think using darker colours is a better way to go, The BSN background is mostly black and grey so I wudnt want it to contrast too much. Also ME3 is pretty dark, so it fits thematically too. But other than colour, layout and style, I like your idea.

@V3paR. very creative, I like how you used RGB colours for the pieces. Maybe another piece with a '?' on it.

@ Whole Particle, I like it. Maybe take Jason's suggestion and drop a shadow behind it.

I will add these to the OP, I'm excited now haha.

I'll wait to add this one as the Mass Effect is pretty hard to read without the shadowing.

I love the jigsaw background :)

wow, that was FAST! I like it, but which do you prefer? I will include one, so as the artist, you get to choose. I wouldn't want to compromise your integrity, after all :P

I had another idea that Shepard's speech about freedom could be incorporated somehow, but it is a rather long speech and I don't see how it could work.

integrity is important ofc :D but choose whichever you prefer or you think fits better :)
(lets say the second one is EC :D)

edit:

it would have to be animated banner to include all your theory's points as a puzzle pieces otherwise putting too much text/info at once will make it a mess :)

Yeah, adding a few shadows makes sense. Updated the source image.

Those animations are pretty cool, nice work. :wizard:



BTW, if anyone wanted mine in any different colors or anything, it would be no trouble, the files are easy to edit.

yea that would be good particle, maybe make the background a bit darker. The pinky colour is really bright haha, and it makes the Mass Effect part hard to read. If you could mix n match diff colours and post them here I will also add them to thread. thanks again :)
