_________________________________________­___­___­___­___­___­__
Since 95% of those who voted in link pick think we need an updated icon & banner for the spot, and no one else volunteered to run the contest... here we go. =P

IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON PARTICIPATING, YOU BETTER READ ALL OF THIS.

Based on experiences with this type of thing in the past, I think the best way to do it is to pick a banner first (since they're harder to make and easier to match icons to) and then once we've picked one of those, we can vote for a matching icon. To keep it simple, and since those who really want to participate usually do so quickly, I'll run it on a weekly basis - that is, you get a week to submit stuff, a week to vote for each, etc. And for the 5% of you who don't want a change - the current icon & banner will be included in the picks. If anyone wants to suggest a new motto for the spot (keep it short-ish), I'll make a pick for those the same week as the icons.

IMPORTANT STUFF ABOUT SUBMISSIONS
-BANNERS need to be 800x100 px. That's 800 pixels wide by 100 pixels high. Any banners that are not that size will not be included in the pick.
-ICONS need to be square. Preferably 200x200 pixels, but they can be larger (300x300, 400x400). Fanpop tends to distort 100x100 px icons when they're uploaded, but larger icons don't seem to be affected.
-Since there are so many members of this spot, there will be a limit of THREE submissions per category per person. That means you can add UP TO THREE icons and THREE banners. Choose wisely - is this the icon or banner you want to see every time you come to the spot?
-I will no longer coddle you. If your submission is the wrong size, it will not be included in the pick. End of story.

IMPORTANT DATES
-*Wednesday, December 22 - The voting will be over and we'll have a new spot look soon!

This is our new banner. Please make sure that the icon you pick will match it.

We're choosing the banner first, but if you'd like to make an icon (or suggest a motto) and add it now, you can.
1年以上前 Kiana-M-McMahon said…
I think the motto is perfect.
Idk for the icon. Did you make this spot?
1年以上前 DarkSarcasm said…
No, I think the Fanpop creators made it. When the picks are done and the new icon & banner are chosen, a higher power can change it for us. =)

That's a cute banner, Kiana-M-McMahon, but as it specifies in the instructions, banners must be 800x100 px. That one is 456×57px and would get all stretched and blurry if uploaded as the spot banner.

Would you mind removing the ones you don't want to use so I don't get them mixed up when I make the pick?

oh sure :)

Sorry. I resized it. It still looks small! It fits good though! I tested it in photoshop. It fits. BTW if fanpop made this club then how do we change the banner and icon?

Thanks, zanhar.

Once the picks are done, we can get one of the creators or a moderator to change it for us. =)
1年以上前 LifesGoodx3 said…
I thought the creator of the spot had to change it, not fanpop?
1年以上前 DarkSarcasm said…
The Fanpop creators can do anything. Because they are gods.

@Kiana-M-McMahon, I used to be a big fan actually (I know you can tell by my username), but the movies and the last book TOTALLY ruined it for me :S

Um, fan of Miss Weasley, the deadline for submitting banners was last week. The pick is up already. It's almost over. That banner is the wrong size. And zanhar already submitted a correctly sized version of that banner. Should I continue? =P

@zanhar1: Thanks for submitting my banner by the way. I missed the deadline. It would have been better to enlarge before saving and posting though, to keep the high quality. Well, never mind.

@BellaLovett: Nice icon!

I've got a motto! The current one kinda bugs me...

"We've all got both light and dark inside of us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are."

Or if that's too long:

"We've all got both light and dark inside of us. What matters is the part we choose to act on."

I've made a few changes to the forum header, but since I doubt many of you will bother to read it, I'll post here too:

Since we only have a few submissions for icons & mottos, I will extend the date to submit them to Wednesday, December 15. The picks will be made that night and will end on the next Wednesday (the 22nd). Remember, three submissions per person (icons must be SQUARE and 200 x 200px or larger).

Please make sure that the icon(s) you submit will match the new banner (posted in forum header) and that they are the best quality that you can make them. This icon will represent the entire Harry Potter spot and its 60,000+ fans, so make it look good!

Mine is correct right? I already resized it.

You're the right size, but I should show you this:

The first picture (100x100) is what it will look like while you're on the spot. The smaller one (50x50) is what you'll see on your profile. It looks good in the 200x200 picture, but it's only that big so that Fanpop won't blur it when it's uploaded - when it's reduced to the smaller size, you can barely see any of the characters.

Everyone should make note of this, actually. Your icons won't look the same in every place - experiment with the sizes before adding to see what your icon will look like as the spot icon (100x100px) and on your profile (50x50). =)
