Hey guys!

Rather unexpectedly, we've been asked to supply a 500x90 pixel banner for The Lincolncast (as we've started to be featured on the guildwars2guru.com front page - in fact, we're there right now). Our podcast art is 1200x1200 and I made a bodgy 1280x720 version for Youtube, neither of which would do for a banner even with some light doctoring (the limit of my photoshop skills)

Also, the illustrius @RobbieMac (who made the current art for both the cast and our guild) can't really do much at the moment as he's still in the process of getting an image editing solution he's good with on his new box. ED: UPDATE: He can get a version done soon, but I still want to see what you guys can come up with : P

SO! Can anyone help us out?

Our current images are below so you can get an idea of the theme. As we're aiming for a banner, though, I guess it can be much much simpler (perhaps just a silhouette of Abraham on a black background with "The Lincolncast" on it or something similar). Also, including an [Explicit] stamp on there would be really useful (as they tend to keep it cleaner around those parts)

I can do it tomorrow quickly on the other computer, no worries. That will also allow me to pull the .psd files of the others so I have them.

@RobbieMac: Awesome! Though, I also want to see what everyone else can come up with (and to give the people a chance to make their mark)

ED: Added the update to the OP

@selfconfessedcynic: Yeah sure that is fine. I will whip up one or two since they are so small.

I've been meaning to try and make something along this theme: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/1/14/Guardian_02_concept_art.jpg

I would've tried it earlier but I didn't want to waste my time if we were going to change the guild name. Will give it a go sometime in the next few days (maybe even tomorrow). I have a few ideas on how to make it work, but I can't make any promises (hence the bolded "try") lol.

Partial to the second one myself.

@TheHT: Number 2 is pretty awesome.

@selfconfessedcynic: Getting featured on there is a success, great job!

Haha love it, especially the parental advisory.

@TheHT: Number 2 is really nice. Can't wait to see everything people come up with!

@Chavtheworld: We're super excited about being featured. Clearly we're doing something right, now we just need to make sure we don't fuck it all up! That said, as we speak, @No0b0rAmA is going through a strenuous brainwashing session so as to keep him from commenting on Anet devs' sexual orientations on the podcast.

That just made me laugh out loud at 2 a.m.

I hope I live with heavy sleepers.

@TheHT: I am very pleased that you enjoyed

Good to see you getting him under control ;)

@TheHT said:

That. Is. Effing. Spectacular.

Wow - Robbie, you have something to beat here.

Wow, I was planning to put my hand to trying one, but after HT's I don't know if it's worth it haha.

TheHT's is pretty awesome, that original image is actually really cool looking.

Hey! Congratulations on the Guru feature, dudes.

Okay!

I think I'll send @TheHT 's version in to GW2Guru, and mix it up if something better ever comes long. (way to start the show with a show stopper : P )

Thanks all.

*I made some edits here, thought it was too negative - HT, your shit rocks*

@selfconfessedcynic: That's awesome! Glad you all liked it!

@selfconfessedcynic: @TheHT: Just got to see it know looks great, good job HT. I won't be able to make anything any time soon, things just keep coming up.
