ok, we all know the deal
make some new buttons for the forums and if we picks yers, i\'ll send you a FREE PS2 game [and not one that = teh suk!1!!!!] plus youll get full credit, and you\'ll get a user text stating that you were the designer

****Bjorn upped the ante, the winner will receive a free PS2 game from him also.  WOW! :eek:  Thats two free PS2 games to the winner!

post yer buttons in this thread, if u dont have a host, attach them to yer post, OR email them to me [mm@psx2central.com] and i\'ll host them on our server

try to keep alot of the chatter in the other thread as we can just showcase the buttons in this thread, or just ask general font and color questions

you can also edit yer post as much as you like if u edit yer buttons

we would like to change ALL the buttons, not just the "reply" and "new thread" buttons

there isnt a set time limit, but lets say roughly a month

at lastly, have fun and please dont criticize others artwork
remember, the most flashiest isnt going to win necesarily
im a fan of "less is more"

were looking for practicality AND beauty, plus the buttons have to look cool with the dark background

anyone know what font that Playstation is?  Or something close?

I tried a search and this was brought up before.   I didn\'t answer the question so well though.

Alright, here are a few sample buttons I made...

 

 

Here\'s what the \'New Topic\' and \'Post Reply\' might look like inside the bar thing at the top of the page...



I also made some black/white versions of the above buttons, just in case they would look better.  The links are below.

New Thread button
Post Reply button
Profile button
User CP button

New Topic/Post Reply preview screen

Eh... the text on the small buttons (Profile, User CP) is a little blurry, but I\'ll gladly enhance it if you decide you want to use them.  

I guess that\'s all.  I might try to improve the design a little later if I see something that really needs changed.

I need Photoshop to edit these buttons or else they\'ll really be screwed up. I\'ll give it a try.

Legally, you get it in a store for like $600.  Illegally...well, I don\'t know if I can say anything about that according to the rules of these forums

I\'ve been thinking about removing the glowing text from the smaller buttons, if you find it hard to read please tell me so I could remove the glow or atleast decrease it.
