August 02, 2004 Banner for D? Any marketdroid here? | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Hi. I've thougth about putting a banner server on my web page (when I release new versions of some of my programs I get about 1000 mostly geeks visits/day), nothing commercial just for promoting some (mostly free) projects I would like people to know about. One of those projects is of course D so the question is: Has anybody with more artistic/marketing instinct that me created a banner (standart size) for this project? I could try to do one in Gimp but as I say marketing instinct is not one of my gifts, but I would accept short and shocking slogans as a base for one on this thread. Let's see what people come with :-) |

I'm not particularly artistic, but I took a stab at the challenge: http://jcc_7.tripod.com/d/banner.html By the way, I don't know if 468x60 is a standard size, but I've made quite a few banners recently that size. -- Justin (a/k/a jcc7) http://jcc_7.tripod.com/d/ |

Nice! I've added it to my bannerserver (at the bottom of each page), for example: http://juanjoalvarez.net/animail |

The "The race is on, turbocharge your development with D!!" is great, though the text is barely readable. I'd suggest changing the font / its props

Hehe I like the style :) I'll also put those banners (the thing supports banner rotation) and I'll make shortly a gallery with all the banners received and post the link here.
