Hard to do some of this without sprites of them all... :p
That's what I was thinking (sort of). All the ideas I had mulled I discarded so far because it would require custom renders to look good. Mixing existing graphics just doesn't look better than the original in my opinion.

Nottravis Can we submit a design that would essentially be only a concept? Thus relying on the renders to be created and tailored for it?

Yeah, it's a real pain if you don't find one with a pretty solid background (especially if they have hair).
In that first one, I had to cut Chris out of a background because I had almost nothing with her as a sprite, and that theme was everyone in red shirts. :ROFLMAO:

I'm thinking of not using any existing graphics at all (bar the font) and making a completely custom banner with my own rendered characters as placeholders. :)

Okay, so here is what I have made so far, I guess they can be used as sigs if they don't get chosen. :sneaky:

This one was almost perfect, but poor Annie was blocked...

If I had a specific idea, I might have, I did consider trying to recreate the models for sprites, but since it's only day one, I figured I would start by working with what we have. :unsure:

Is it sad that the Amanda one, that I did the least work on, is one of my favorites?

I'm glad you did. I hit a wall with what approach to take, so it gave me ideas. Not that I consider your banners to be bad, but I don't think this is the best direction to take. :)

One of the best Notty's renders so far IMO, so I'm not surprised.;)

The only problem I had with most of my other ideas, they didn't have too much to do with the main game, too many things with the pirates, like getting the girls dressed for that, or the VR game. While that stuff is great, and fun as hell, it's not the best representation of the game itself...

I hope you get some good ideas! ;)

Yep, it should certainly be something representative. At least that's what I'll look for (if I get my lazy ass to do anything).:)

I like the concept of the first one a lot, but why are the girls cropped above the cleavage?

As a general comment, I think it should come across in some way that this is an adult game. Having one of the characters be nude or partially nude could work.

Oh no, I don't like that at all. Certainly not nude.

I think it would give out the wrong idea about the game. Don't get me wrong, I'm after traffic - but I also don't want the wrong audience to play it. For then all we would get is grief from people who just don't "get it" y'know?
