Those ads are regionally targeted - based on where you're browsing from.

13 hours to go. I think that probably either 26+27 or 8 should win. What do you guys think?

MagicSteve- eve banners are in flash, there are no 3d models that are being played in your browser, i know that as i am a 3d artist, so please don't argue on that. I doubt you will see any add that uses in-game grafics, because it suks. i would rather wait for c2 and make add using that grafics. If you relly whant an add now i could models some of eathforse ships, and some other in-game ships, and maybe put together some nice looking add. If you eng competition now and accept these projects you are just waisting 400$, at least that's my opinion. yes, there are a couple of ok banners, but i cant see any that would really cost 400$.
These ones look very much like eve ads.. i need still to check to be absolutly sure, but so far they look extremly simular.

I'm not sure if you're saying that you can't have 3D models in flash, but if you are, then you're wrong. I'm not saying any of these ads are displaying 3D models, but you definitely can display them in flash.

I'd have to agree with those, awesome. One thing that draws my attention is "Free download". In an advert wouldn't it be better to have something such as Unlimited Free Play?

Technically misleading, buts its a marketing ploy after all, and free download makes it look as if the game is going to be P2P straight away, which it isn't. Sorry for going slightly away from the topic...

No need to be sorry, thats a very good point. I'll have Jeff consider it.

Damnit
I'm late aren't I... yep.. yep I am... meh.. big woop, I worked a ton on this thing so I might as well put it out there


My banner... well the .swf was sent to Jeff by e-mail and i FINALLY found a converter that successfully converted it to .gif, sent that to Jeff too... not that I liked the .gif... as you can see in this message it's low quality and probobly sucks and is 8mb of "could have run smoother and higher quality*.. or maybe it works on some of your computers. Who knows.

Star sonata isn't about winning contests for money, its about making a wholesome community for all to play in ^^ Also I didn't finish this fast enough before the contest ended... so I had to say that.. :P

Also I wish I could have made the damn explosion a lot cooler but I got frustrated with it.. bah.

Thats actually quite good apart from your choice of ships... a rhino that has been over stretched? a Kelvin? a Wing4...? Where is the BuleSuperSidhe? the Reaver? the Deathstriker? The actually good looking ships.

I kind of wanted to choose ships that a new player will find as they just begin the game. Maybe a strange choice? but the main focus of the banner is mainly focus, to grab attention. Even if the banner sucks if somebody looks at it and something happens in it, they will click. And that click to the SS site will be my fault ^^
