Greetings Artisanal MechWarriors,

It is said that my talents in visual arts may be, at best, described as "fridge-worthy".
With that in mind, and because the Art team really has better things to do with Mechs and Maps. I figured I might delegate this potentially fun task to the Community.

Please also be advised that this may or may not also be a ComStar machination to help reveal who among our Community have these awesome skills and would be willing to craft signatures for other Pilots or Merc Corps as well. If you join in this, do expect others to appreciate your talents!

I also happen to have five ten 1-day Premium Time Codes available for the five ten signature banners I like the most.

Entry requires one Signature Banner of your own creation, posted in reply of this thread.
Banner dimensions must be 720x80
Banner contents may include my name, nom-de-guerre, job title, Mechs (I love my Locusts), etc...
Feel free to have fun with it, just also remember to keep it clean and classy.
Entries open until Friday, May 9th, 2014 at 9AM PDT / 12PM EDT / 4 PM UTC.

How dare you try to make me work while I'm at work!?

You have a week, no rush. In the meantime my current signature will just continue to draw attention towards an awesome player and cause.

Awesome cause? Yes. Awesome player? That is highly debatable.

You really need a DHB sig though. They aren't my design, but they are pretty cool.

[Poppaukko]

It's almost unfair how awesome this is.

Can't wait to see the third version! I'm sure that will go well.

I have GIMP open and am all ready to make the sweetest ever gif for Niko! I've reached this point of the creative process though:

Hoisted by his own petard.

[Atlai]

Work on presentation and essay due...or make Niko a sig...

*Starts up photoshop*

[Heffay]

Eh. Sometimes it helps just to get something down to start the juices flowing.

[K1ttykat]

Well I think this is a solid start.
Have to fix that dithering though

EDIT: Fixed!

***Edit: Banner was a little bland with the flat grey. I thought the carpet would really tie the signature together, but I figured the neon lights from the bowling alley kept things less cluttered.

Hope the folks that voted for this already still like it.

My skills are not that good at the moment. Otherwise, I'd jump in this.

[Atlai]

Screw studying anyway.

I'd be tempted to make you something, Niko, but my skills pale in comparison with what you've already got here, so I'll just stick with my usual doodles.

previous post deleted, but thanks for humoring me . . .
