You've all probably noticed the change in the subreddit theme. We figured it was about time for a clean, professional look to go with the new changes. But... where's the banner? Here's where you come in.
Many concerns have been brought up about the NSFW nature of past themes. Obviously this is a drug-themed subreddit, but some people want to be able to browse at work or school without someone pointing out the dildo they're looking at. While some of you think this might not be a good idea, others feel differently.
So here we are, and here's the contest! We want you, the community, to channel your inner artist and create something that will be seen by thousands of daily users. Cool right? However there are some guidelines you must abide by to be considered.
Rules and guidelines
- Please keep it professional and on topic
- The image should be 120x40, no larger than 300x100
- Try to keep the file size ~100kb
- No animations
Obviously we don't expect you to do this just for the glory, it is a contest after all. There will be prizes for the top 3 banners.
Prizes
1st Place -- Three months of reddit gold and one month of custom flair
2nd Place -- Two months of reddit gold
3rd Place -- One month of reddit gold
The contest will run for two weeks from the posting date, so it ends June 24.
These are just the current prizes. If you want to offer another prize for the winner(s) feel free to PM the moderators and we'll work something out.
Do you have the artistic ability of a three year old? No worries! Feel free to make a comment about what you would like to see in the new banner. This thread will be in "contest mode", and the winner will be chosen by the best upvote/downvote ratio. Banner must fit within the rules. Moderators have final say in the outcome, but hopefully it wont come to that.
Here are some resources, thanks to /u/Jay-__ for the reminder!
