New challenge: Front Page Banner!

[kass]

ETA: We're tabling this challenge for now, having realized that we need better guidelines and a longer timeframe. We'll re-post this challenge later once we've generated the better guidelines etc. Thanks for your patience; a new challenge is coming right up!

Hi all! The First Fandoms challenge is now officially closed; you're welcome to keep posting goodies from your first beloved fandom, but we're moving on to something new: the Front Page Banner challenge.

This is an art challenge. We’re closing in on the end of Fanlore’s Open Beta, and we’re looking for a new banner graphic to go on the Fanlore front page to replace the one that’s there now (the one that says “Fanlore: beta.”) We invite you to make us a new graphic, and post it in the comments here!

(By submitting a graphic to this challenge, you're giving us permission to use that graphic on Fanlore. That's probably obvious, but we wanted to mention it anyway, just to be completely clear.)

This challenge will run for roughly two weeks. Calling all fanartists: please spread the word, and we look forward to seeing what you guys come up with!

I thought the logo would stay the same and the challenge might be looking for something like the themed versions of the Google logo. For example a Stargate version where the letters are made up of gate symbols, a gate, and Ancient technology, or a SPN version where the letters are arcane symbols and weapons, etc. Then there could be a featured fandom of the month (or whatever) on the front page and maybe once it retires, it could become a skin users could choose in their preference settings...

That is an awesome idea (which I never would have thought of, omg!)

Really, the possibilities are wide-open -- whatever y'all think sounds cool, go for it.
