Cervello, how’d you get that font? I needs to knows.

I googled “newgrounds font,” looked through the first result and found the font for the NG logo was called Featured Item

Also, juices would completely suck if he had no plugins.

Yes, so would everything else anyone’s made on Paint.NET.

Why does it matter how I made it as long as people like it?

EDIT

Now that I think about it, I only used 3 plugins for this..that’s not a lot comparatively.

Here is mine. I may make some changes/different versions but for now here they are. One is what it will look like and one is the actuall image.

I had to download 2 fonts and a ton of plugins to make this.
And apparently it changes as you move your eyes higher and lower. Wierd.

Ok, I’m sorry, but that’s awfully ironic/hilarious.

i don’t get it.

Oh. I wasn’t rying to dis your work i was just saying that all the effects were plugins and none were built-in effects. Except copy-paste.

Fail.

Plugins are no fun.

I’ll remind you.

Glow, outline, splatter.

Tell me, did you draw everything in your banner?

EDIT

Just by looking, you used a gradient, a paintbucket fill, the Outline plugin, copy-pasted a lot of stuff, and didn’t “create” that font.

Now, neither did I, but if you’re going to bash my banner, be sure not to do the same thing to your own.

@ Juice

I wasn’t trying to dis your work

I’m sorry, but Fail.

@Stevenorr
Plugins are fail? They’re just effects. I can’t make a good banner from just using the brush tool.

@Everyone
I did not intend to “bash” anyones artwork or ideas, but to give thanks to the gift of plugins. End of discussion.

Juice’s is WIN! XD

I’m sorry, but Fail.

Way to avoid the point of my post with immaturity. ;)

And I do consider it bashing, btw, when you say

Oh, and I lol’d when I saw this.

give thanks to the gift of plugins

My opinion, in any case. Anyway, let’s get back on topic. Somebody post something!

Leave it to Juices, amazing headers to show mine up. *walks up to juice with a knife.

please keep in mind that “borrowing” graphics (i.e. the pumpkins or the bats) from some source of online images or from the personal works on someone’s else’s website without citing the source is ILLEGAL, and will likely disqualify you.

Well, I don’t how this work in the US, but I think there are some royalty free images on the internet. And there are sites that host those kind of images, like this one
So I don’t think most of the pictures used here are illegal, since they usually are high resolution and hard to find, and even those copyrighted pictures often offer a free low resolution thumbnail of it, which may be perfectly fine to use in this kind of work.

I could be wrong, but I don’t think you’re supposed to make that part of your image. The numbers are dynamically generated text.

Wow… I really didn’t notice that… In that case, I’ll post my one I liked most here:

Awesome job. I love the blurred Grim Reaper it’s really effective.

Okay look, there are free fonts and free graphics out there, but I can see some that are definately not free. Some of these pumpkins might have taken hours to create, such as the one that has the hebrew text carved into it. That was all done by hand, and isn’t free.

If you want to use free pics and fonts, thats fine, but I know that some of these things are stolen

edit: The pumpkin I am refering to is on Aldrin’s banner, very early on.

Better or Worse?:

The red one is better. Blue looks too ‘Christmassy’.

Well, I like this one more, except now the wolf doesn’t make much sense.

Also, wolf looks scrappier enlarged.

Here’s mine without that text:

Where did the wolf howling at the moon go?

Here is mine. I may make some changes/different versions but for now here they are. One is what it will look like and one is the actuall image.

Take the ‘SJ13’ out.

Worse.

Also, wolf looks scrappier enlarged.

Really? I thought it had a tad better quality. Eh. I can always resize it.

Sj13, worse, they look pixelated too much.

I tried again. Don’t hurt me. xD

Don’t hurt me.

Aw…

Looks good, Ret.

Dood, that’s pretty good Retro.
