Well it's certainly better than the current one, and fits more with the theme of the site. I doubt it'll be used though, generally Joe gets the banners done privatley, it's a kick *** job nonetheless.

That's ****ing amazing. Though I think if you left the text out completely (except the credit in the corner and the japanese symbols) it would look better. Just my personal opinion.

But Crono is right, the last time there was a competition held in FanArt to make a bannner the winner was never used. And personally, I think that banners should have the same colourscheme as the style of the site. It's just theat grey and green aren't exactly the greatest of colours to work with.

thanks for the comments

That's the best banner I've seen so far. A harmony of pixels.

However, a bit like what RaZoR LeAf said, the writting on it (Serebii The Legend, SPP) seems to unbalance the banner because of how it's positioned. Just my thought.

I think that Joe, the conservative (synonym: unprogressive) webmaster, won't apply (m)any radical changes to the main site anytime soon, so it's my belief that your banner won't get the chance of gazing down upon the visitors of Serebii.net.

That is a very good banner, unfortunately we do banners for specific events such as this basic Red/Blue one being for the 10th Anniversary of Pokémon, last months was New Years, next months will be Pokémon Ranger.

It also seems to me that your banner is a wee bit cluttered, which does seem to go with the current fansite motive but at SPP we try to keep things simple and to the point

As for me not being progresssive, it's just not feasible with my urrent time constraints and the fact that the site needs to be set out how it is. Besides, the current way is good and it works, why mess with what's not broken

Well the outlines of Blastoise and Charizard are certainly nothing special. I think this looks much nicer, and will match the template of the main site a lot better. Perhaps when the 10-year anniversary thing dies down, you could use this one to give the site more appeal.

It's a freakin' sweet banner. 8D

if you guys want i can make a banner about diffrent subjects becouse now i am on a vaction and i have a lot of free time! just tell me the subject and tell me what you want to write on the banner and i will make it

 

[Esperante]

The white pixels on the left side of the banner look really tacky, and the left side in general is cluttered. The first time you look at it, it looks nice, but I would honestly expect a little higher quality in general from a professional graphic designer.

Great banner, but is the 'serebii' wording meant to go off the banner onto the green outlining?

 

[SlimShady]

Wow, that is a lot more professional and better than my banner. (the Infinite one) That is one of the better banners that I have seen.

 

[~Eon-Ryuu~]

It's a shame that this banner won't be used, 'cos its friggin smexeh.

 

[backspace]

looks good without a doubt and I like it. however, for a business environment, I think you throw the word "professional" around WAY too loosely.

Okay, that's fair enough, but in all honesty, this banner is much better than any of the ones we've had in ages. "Cluttered"? So what? Our current one consists of two pictures of Pokemon outlines on plain backgrounds pasted together. It's not simple; it's lazy.

Better>good, dear. Besides, the banner's already made. Surely it can't take that long to upload it.

Evidently.

Serebii, why are you just throwing away a great banner like this, the only good one I've seen is the Pokemon XD one (With Flareon ECT.). So C'mon, you could use it at some point. Like a Serebii Anniversary or something? Just keep it in mind and give it a thought from time to tim.

I love the banner, its very well done, even though I shoulden't say, that just needs a little more work to be proffesional. Your better than me, and I think its a great banner! Well done! ^_^

Come to fan art immiditly because we need people like you.

The banner itself looks focused on the fourth movie, so if you could make a banner on Pokemon Ranger I think you could get it on the main webste.

 

[Serebii]

When looking at it further, I cannot actually see myself using it, while its the right resolution in pixels, the borders have been cut severely, obviously to fit more into the middle and thus if I was to upload it, it would screw up the Banner part of the layout

And I stand by the cluttered bit :/ I'm sorry but the point of linking banners is to draw people in, Heading Banners if they're too cluttered, distract people from the website

wow, amazing, unique, amazing, i am lost for words, c'mon serebii, use it!

 

[Serebii]

I told you why I cant, it doesn't fit into the requirements for the banner since its taking over 10 pixels of height of the banner's green border and thus doesn't link in and it's cluttered
