(HS6) vs. (NWO)

Judge: Alliance

Render: Ummm....ok (you'll have to download yourself)

Criteria: must be 500x100 px and under 150 kb

Bonus: include ONE word that somehow relates to your sig - transparency and/or animation

Deadline: 72 hours from this post

Gentlemen...

You expect us to do transparency with a 100 pixel height limit?

EDIT: @ Lana - True...

And... is it just me or does the render not have a transparent background, even when it's downloaded?

It's possible

and nice job NWOclapping

Well, I've already finished one, and usually, it's a max limit, but I won't complain since it said 'must', I guess.

Meh, I'll have to work on this tomorrow, then.

My point with that was to challenge you to choose a small part of a large render and figure out what to do with all that left over space. (abstractionist?)

I thouhg it would be a fun challenge...sorry to dissappoint/waste your time. I'm still relatively new to this judging deal.

Meh, I'll get it done. Don't worry about it.

Well, whipped this one up. I like it.

500 x 100
58.7 kb
Includes animation and one word relating to sig.

Once this is done and judge, I'll show everybody my first version...

OK...

NWO

POS:
-nice use of color
-great job with the eyes
-nice sketchy feel
nice organinc background

NEG:
-no flow between one part of the sig and another
-awkward break in the figures (blend!)

Bonus:
-animation
-no others (transparency is an abstract border (like my sig) and I asked for ONE word not 3.

-<>-<>-<>-

HS6

POS:
-great depth to the sig
-nice contrast between the figures
-ambience!
-nice organic background

NEG:
-your name was placed a bit awkwardly

Bonus:
-nice animation
-ONE word describing sig.

-<>-<>-<>-

WINNER: HS6

Biggest mark against NWO - bad blending between the two figures

-<>-<>-<>-

Nice job gentlemen and you both get a point for speed!

HS6 lets see what else you did!

Awesome. Nice duel, NWO. I'm open for a rematch any time.

Thanks for judging, Alliance.

EDIT: Okay, hold on...

Had an idea and ran with it, producing this:

(The animation may lag on some computers. It's something like 690 kb...)
