Official Forum Competition - Design a Forum Banner!

We are currently working on re-skinning the official Tomb Raider forums. The current default dark theme will soon be complimented with a light-themed skin as well! To celebrate the upcoming skin, we thought it would be a swell idea to give the community a chance to have their own designs prominently displayed on the official forums, so this month we are holding a “design your own forum banner” competition.

We have some cool swag up for grabs for the best submissions. Prizes include a branded Ogio Backpack, a Camelbak water bottle, and a Crossroads Lithographsigned by Rhianna, Camillia, Karl, John, and Noah!

The contest runs until November 6th, so get on board while you can. For full contest rules and conditions, follow this link.

It's competition time again!

(Short attention span? Don't fancy a long read? Click HERE for a super short summary of this contest!)

We are currently in the process of expanding our forum skin set. On top of the dark themed skin that the TR9 section of the official forums has been sporting since its inception back in the fall of 2010, members will soon also be able to choose from a light themed TR9 skin. It will be similar to the default vBulletin 3 skin that we're using in other sections here. Now, instead of the forum staff or Eidos' web team creating the forum banner for the new skin, as usual, we thought it would be a nice idea to give the community a chance of having their creations in the limelight by displaying fan made banners in this soon to be released new forum skin. So get creative and show us your Photoshop skills!

The banners you create must be exactly 950 pixels wide - no more and no less! This is because the forum contents are set to a static 950 pixels and the banner must align with this, see example here. The height of the banner allows for a bit of flexibility in your design - you may choose anywhere from 100 to 220 pixels for the height.

Design Tips:

The less high you can make the banner, the better. Sometimes less is more
The official media thread is packed with HIGH RES unwatermarked TR9 media and logos that you can use.
Don't make your banners too dark. The background color of the new forum skin will be a very light blue - hex code #F1F3F8.
Use PNG images instead of JPG/GIF for best image quality.
You can use quotes from the game in your banner to make it "pop" more. For example:

A little housekeeping:

Every forum member may enter with up to 5 (FIVE) different banners. Please note that these have to be significantly different banners; if you just slightly edit one banner and post it as a new entry, it will not count. You *are* still allowed to post slightly different variants of the same banner, as we may still use them in the new skin, but only 1 of them will be valid for voting in this competition, so please place all variants inside [ spoiler ] tags and only leave 1 of them directly visible in your post, to make it clear which one of them you want to enter with. Click here to see an example of this.
Entries will be collected on-the-fly and placed in the second post of this thread. The second post will be used by the judges for voting. If you wish to edit/improve your entry after you already entered it into the competition, you need to make a new post with the edited banner and request your old version to be taken out of the second post.
This comp will run for at least 1 whole month. So plenty of time to create something awesome. Don't rush it and take your time
