I've only been using GiantBomb for a couple months, and i just saw the video the other day in the ''know your meme" thread and thought it was hilarious (along with other genius moments from GB history such as the ''Never'' thing from E309 and ''$775m" from E310 - funniest things i've seen on the site) so i dont mind it for a bit longer - saying that though i think Bond07s entry is fine without it 
  
I'm also passing this week, i dont know anything about Duke Nukem - except a distant memory of playing it on N64 as a child - and hence can't think of anything funny enough that would compete with B0n407s entry

Yeah, bummer, your's was much better than the generic one they got on the front page. Sucks that the community actually takes the time to do awesome stuff and they end up not using it...

@B0nd07: Yeah, that sucks dude. I don't even like the one they picked. Maybe Dave is sensitive about his nipples?

I just think Dave prefers not to be featured on headers/art (the Bombcast art, for example).

Got a bit of time to work on something today 
 
first ones a 'serious' one i guess, changed it a bit using the whole background instead of a fade to black, and metallic lettering instead of replicating the MOH lettering, might change it but i like it
 
second one is a less serious one, is that the correct address of giantbomb? also used the brad photobomb thing because i still think its funny 
 
dont have anymore time to work on them atm, but as usual any feedback is appreciated 
 
thanks

" I have so many ideas for these but I don't have any editing software, what are you guys mostly using?  It's getting boring seeing them all in the same format so I'm going to try one soon.  EDIT: Can anyone tell me how I get those fonts too? "

 
I'm using Photoshop Elements 6 
 
There is a defined format and you can only really change the background imagine and play around with the 'TNT' font; to replicate as best you can the lettering seen on the specific boxart       
 
otherwise font stays the same and placing of images etc stays the same 
 
Like i said in my post above usually the background fades to black towards the left  but this time i just left the information as an overlay 
 
i'd like to see the format shaken up a bit but really i think its just because its easier to pick one and then to put it on the site

@RiotBananas: I use Photoshop CS2.  And as RockAction said, there's a set format we have to follow.
@RockAction: I'd suggest changing the font color of "this week" in your first one.  There's not enough contrast between it and the background.

Anyway, here's my (Dave-free) entry for this week.

Hey guys, sorry for the radio silence. If I can speak for Dave here, the reason that Duke banner didn't get picked last week was that we just didn't feel like it communicated the event very well. The Photoshop goofiness and site memes we all love so dearly are great, but remember that these are supposed to be promotional in nature. Shirtless Dave doesn't really invite clicks. 
 
B0nd07 has another strong entry this week. RockAction, I like parts of both yours, though there's readability issues on the first one, and on the second one, well, I like the gag, but I probably wouldn't use the one that has our street address on it :)

Kind of a hollow victory this week being the only one to submit anything.  And by submit I mean upload to the dropbox (an important step).  It's a shame people seem to have lost interest in this.  I hope more try next week.

 Congratulations B0nd07 
 
I didn't have time to fix either of mine up, and i didn't like them enough to dropbox them so thats my fault, and I missed TNT - kinda fucked off but i saw Chris Jericho's band Fozzy instead and they were pretty good
  
I'll definitely have a go at next weeks 
  
and thanks to Ryan for clearing that up and for the feedback on my entries

I don't think you guys need an invite, meaning you just start when you hear about it on 'I Love Mondays'

@TheSeductiveMoose: I'm not sure, but maybe you have to login to Dropbox and hit the Share A Folder button? Again not sure how this works, but I'm imagining that that could work.

Like the lettering on #2 better, though yeah, I'd say keep messing around. My only other thought is that the EA Sports MMA tattoo doesn't quite play, though this is clearly still early. Still, I like it, strong start!

Ok, so these are far from done (needs reshading, fixing of skin colour, new text and various other tweaks) but you get the idea.
 
Tell me which one you prefer! (I know the last one won't get picked, I just made It because I wanted to)

It's good to see renewed interest in this after the last couple of weeks!  I would like to point out the note in the template, however, that says "the fonts should never change".  Also, be sure to upload your .psd in case Dave wants to modify yours like he did with my Mortal Kombat promo.
 
Good luck!
