The worst example of banner design

Madame0120 · 01-23-2007, 04:39 PM

So ...

As I do most every Tuesday, I check to see who's been sending traffic to my gay hub. Today I saw the nice hits from Hunk Hunter, so I tottered over to grab a banner and put him someplace nice.

Well ...

My sites are all pretty pain jane, so I look for animated banners that will fit my needs. Sometimes I am forced to dick with what's offered, and build it myself. Most times it is presentable, till I can contact the webmaster.

Sometimes it comes out pretty funny ...

I cannot tell which is worse... the banner or the fact that you did not link to the index page :whip:

^ too early for a little nip?

I have problems locating sponsors with hardcore banners! I've resorted to building my own using borrowed graphics and images because softcore simply does not cut it (rather use text).

I can't use someone else's X RAted images...

A- I don't hold a licence
B- I don't have 2257 IDs

sorry - I should have clarified: by "borrow" I mean I acquire content from the sponsor I am promoting, and I either modifiy an exsisting creative (banner, header graphic etc) or I simply make something else.

My eye stopped twitching and am once again able to remember where I am!

Excellent job, Madame!

I think Madame's point (which might not apply to you, since I think you are outside the US) is the need for secondary producers to have 2257 docs on hand for any explicit image, even a banner, under 4472... which, for the moment, essentially makes the FSC injunction moot.
