Week 184: Results
So all three submissions were by rashiea, but there were just enough votes to determine a favorite of the three. Thanks for submitting and voting!
First Place:
rashiea
*If first place winners would like a banner, please comment to this post stating you want a banner.*
*The icon maker may ask for the name of the bannermaker from any banner on the voting post.*
A single person can only place using one banner despite how many votes the "second" banner may get.
Voting Commentary
01 - I think this banner has the nicest typography. The text is easy to read, and the colors add a bit of playfulness that matches the icon very well~
02 - I like the simplicity with the clover tie-ins and varied typography
02 - The inclusion of the clovers as a texture was a cool idea. Also, nice job matching the colors of the fonts.
02 - Interesting use of different colours and fonts to match text to image, plus the way the decorative background elements carried through was a nice touch..
Other Commentary
02 - I like the fact that you added the clover in the background, but I think the text is a little disjointed. I would suggest trying to use only a maximum of two fonts in a banner, since too many fonts tend to make things too busy.
03 - I feel that the text being pushed to the bottom of the banner makes the image in the background more the focus. While this might have been the intention, it draws too much attention away from the icon. I'd suggest instead of white, that the background be the same grayish color, and then the image would fade into that, and blend with the icon better~
Live in New England, USA? Why not submit to week 185?! You can make lots of banners, since it looks like we'll be snowed in for a few days. O.O
