>New 4chan Banner Contest with a chance to win a 4chan Pass! See the contest page for details.[Dismiss]
Any good banners this year /a/? Or are we just recycling the same shit banners as always?
>>143107320
i hope this is in there
>>143107320
It's only for a selected amount of boards, and you have to add the board name to the banner.
Which boards do you think have the most 4chan pass regulars?
>>143107517
the boards with the highest spm
Someone should submit this.
>>143107586
>>143107393
If I'm reading it right, it's for the ad space, not the banners at the top.
>We're going to use 4chan's banner ad spaces to link to our own boards, and we want you to design the banners.
>Anyone can submit a banner, but only 4chan Pass users will be able to vote.
>>143107716
What the fuck? I don't know which of those sentences makes less sense.
>>143107716
Makes sense, avoids the problems with proxyfags voting for themselves.
>>143107782
Good goy
>>143107841
It's not like anyone would buy a shekelpass just to vote.
>>143107517
Gee
R9k
>>143107716
Now I'm curious, what percentage of users have bought a Pass? Are there stats for this? It would stink if only 20% of the board was allowed to vote on these.
>>143107876
I remember when this was posted in that Junji storytime thread, it's a great "4chan in a nutshell" pic but too big for a banner.
Hiro's a genius. You use wasted ad space that noone wants to fuel intra-board rage and board patriotism, but you only make pass owners elgible to vote, prompting people to buy more passes to shill for their banners.
All according to keikaku
>inb4 people post their own 300x100 banners without realizing is for the ad banners that everybody has hopefully blocked
>>143107918
>20%
I'd be fucking shocked if it were that high.
>>143107962
>have adblocked disabled on 4chan
>still don't see ads these days
>not even shit like J list.
>>143108077
It would probably depend on the board's size and quality in terms of on-topic discussion. I bet a lot of the shitposting-centric boards have Pass users.
>>143107960
>>143107962
And Hiro also gets people to turn off their adblock for the autists than want to see the banners.
>>143107960
>using ad space that is likely blocked by the majority of users as an eye catch
>not using it for the slim chance of revenue from the people that have unintentionally left it
>a genius
>>143107716
Surely you have a pass since you're obsessed with getting a trip
>>143108119
>shit like J list
I have Adblock on but didn't really mind J-List while I saw it, at least they're creative with their ads. Though you can tell it was crossboarder-friendly.
>>143108156
Well, there are retards who gave moot money to upload their banners.
>>143108124
As I said, it depends on the spm
>>143108210
Which is still a more profitable venture than this. This is like a worse version of the normal banner contests.
>>143108210
I remember when K_evin put up a banner that just read "Sayaka is my waifu".
>a traffic cop paying money to claim a 2D character as his womyn
>>143108261
I'm sure he has little support from the moderation team, otherwise he had probably come up with something else.
>3, i, po, gd, n, cm, trv, wsr, news
Literally who gives a shit about these, we'll have to wait a few months I guess.
>>143108077
With this amount of posters Hiro would be set for life if that were the case.
>>143108119
I just checked and I think it's a 4chanX thing. I don't see ads even with adblock disabled. Is there a way to undo this, without disabling 4chanX that is?
>>143108349
Isn't /news/ supposed to be an offshoot of /pol/ or something?
How would you attract posters from specific boards like /sp/ or /fit/ to /a/?
>>143108418
Inazuma Eleven banners.
>>143108378
Yes.
>>143108418
They come here anyway.
>>143108418
I'd try to repel them.
>>143108418
Why would we?
>>143108442
Tell me your secrets.
>>143108497
At least try to go through the settings first.
>>143108576
I don't get it.
most 4chan desktop users used adblock I'm guessing but reminder that moot said when he left 40% of traffic comes from mobile and it's probably higher now
Less people use adblocking on a phone so these banners are not only going to attract crossboarders to /a/ but mobile crossboarders
>>143108394
Old /new/ was basically /pol/ back in the day. before it got deleted and recreated as /pol/
/news/ was supposed to be a place to discuss specific articles, but it's dead.
>>143108124
I've had a pass since day one.
Honestly just pressing tab and enter to post like before feels so fucking good.
>>143108678
We will have to double down on hostility towards outsiders then.
>>143108707
How dare you
>>143108124
I think it depends on how many people on a given board have jobs.
>>143108418
They're attracted to high test things
>>143108349
What, you don't use the Papercraft & Origami board? Origami is the shit.
>>143108768
m8, I've posted for over 4 years without captcha, then suddenly moot uses it to stop spam. When he announced the pass shit was the best thing ever.
>>143108707
I got goypass recently and on 4chanX tab + enter will open up image select, it took me some time to get used to ctrl+enter, but now it's really nice.
>>143108877
Eh, double-tab enter is faster.
Sweet. Guess buying my Pass gives me extra perks.
>>143108939
Not really, I can press them both with one hand.
But if you're used to doing it this way the difference is so small that it probably wouldn't be worth to get used to the other.
>>143108678
I don't use adblock.
I made a banner long ago, but when I went back and looked at it, I realized that the "4chan" was in a bad position. Should I remake it or just accept it as is?
>>143109268
Post it.
What are the dimensions for those ad banners anyways?
I tried
Awful.
>>143109314
300x100 since the ancient times
banners are trash
even reddit copied it
this is mine
>>143109006
Sauce, pretty please~
No reverse search result.
>>143108531
I got nothing.
>>143109370
>ad banners
>>143109314
728 x 90
>>143109370
Those are just regular banners, I mean for ad banners.
>>143109370
Shut the fuck up retard.
>>143109453
s-sorry
Who was /wsr/-tan again?
>>143109292
Found out that I originally saved it in jpg too.
Feel free to resize and add logo
>>143107716
So NO ONE SHOULD MAKE BANNERS UNLESS YOU WANT NEWFAGS TO SWARM INTO THIS PLACE

Are you people legitimately retarded or merely pretending?
AD banners, you retards.
>We're going to use 4chan's banner ad spaces to link to our own boards
>to link to our own boards
If this means what I'm thinking it does, it means Hiro is gonna advertise 4chan boards.
In other 4chan boards.
aka crossboarder heaven.
>>143107320
>3, i, po, gd, n
>cm, trv, wsr, news, p
>no /a/
Am I understanding this correctly? We are making ads that 99% of users will have blocked for boards that no one cares about, and have to pay to vote on them?
>>143109992
What's even the point? It's not like it's hard to go from one board to another.
>>143110001
I think people already know what /a/ is
>>143110001
>We're going to accept banner submissions for a few boards each week for the next few months
>You can submit a banner for this week's boards
They're implying there will be more boards in this contest later.
>>143110053
Maybe tempt people to use more boards and increase traffic?
Increased traffic = increased ads = increased revenue.
Even on the off chance some people still didn't use an adblocker.
One that isn't humorous and is attempting to be cool?
>>143109992
>he only posts on 1 board
>>143110053
To advertise them. Without clicking on them, do you know what's posted on 3, i, cm, po, gd, n, p? I sure as fuck don't
>>143110106
>increased ads = increased revenue
This entire contest is counteractive to that since the banners take the place of ads.
Also retarded because if they're already using 4chan, ads are on every board anyways.
>>143109787
>>143109898
No one gives a shit about making stuff no one's going to see or care about, in order to attract newfags on top of that. All for a goy pass.
Might as well post something more useful.
Here's one for /a/ for whenever it's turn comes up.
>>143108210
Then there people who got banners as a thanks for saving the site.
>>143109787
No, I'm just adding in on the fun, as I'm already working on an actual submission.
>>143110278
>useful
They are not accepting regular banners so they are as useless as they get.
>>143110296
That's probably the worst possible idea if you really don't want people coming here. There's not much you could do other than make this place seem incredibly boring.
>>143110360
So a screenshot of a general?
>>143110347
Someone might have a giggle, someone else might save it. They'd still probably be better than anything else posted in this thread, so who gives a shit.
>>143110407
Then if you're going to post garbage at least dump H manga.
>>143110395
That'll just attract memers, I say we just pack it full of lewd lolis.
>>143110141
The only one of those I don't know is /gd/, and I haven't been off of /a/ in years.
>>143109385
Hajimete no gal iirc
>>143110470
Lewd lolis are boring to you? Maybe you're desensitized.
>>143107716
Pass bors WW@?
>>143110470
Terrible idea, let's just pay off Hiro to skip /a/
I blocked banners back moot was dumb enough to "update" them after a decade, who gives a shit?
>2. Must contain the full board name (e.g., /a/ - Anime & Manga).
What the fuck? All banners only have "4chan".
>>143110629
>>143110629
Read the thread, anon-kun.
>>143110629
>he can't tell the difference between flags and banner ads
Also, the contest says that it's supposed to be 468x60.
>>143110743
They got smaller?
>>143110743
Where?
>>143108418
>How would you attract posters from specific boards like /sp/ or /fit/ to /a/?
Sakura Trick.
>>143110755
Currents ads are still 728 x 90 so that's bizarre.
>>143110797
Click submit banner on the contest page to see the rules. Or, fuck it.
>Must be inspired by and related to the board that we're accepting submissions for that week.
>Must contain the full board name (e.g., /a/ - Anime & Manga).
>Note that these banners will be in a global rotation, so banners should be suitable for the entire site, and worksafe.
>Image dimensions must be exactly 468x60. JPG, PNG, and GIF accepted. Animated GIFs are allowed. Filesize should be less than 150KB.
>Only high quality submissions please. No scribbles or other junk!
I wonder how the banners for boards like /mlp/ or /d/ will be like.
This better fucking make it this time
>>143110849
Well, there are two kinds after all.
>>143110894
Too bad it won't.
>>143108003
>kek
Fuck off
>>143110915
Ah, yeah. It's for the smaller ones. So I guess they'll be running it alongside the usual ads then.
>>143110849
>Only high quality submissions please. No scribbles or other junk!
Those are some pretty impossible standards.
>>143110470
Only if we include "me on the far right"
>>143110972
They have accepted junk in the past anyway
>>143110973
>>143108418
/sp/ is literally /a/ nowadays, aside the general threads
>>143110743
>>143110755
Look ~150 pixels lower from the bottom
>>143110972
>find perfect material for an ad banner
>it won't fit the ass proportions that is required
>>143111049
/sp/ is nothing like /a/
>>143110988
If it ever come to that.
>>143111136
Forgot pic.
>>143111089
/a/ isn't even in the submission rotation yet. Maybe if we're lucky, /a/ won't get an advertisement. From what's listed so far, it seems like boards with lower amounts of traffic that would actually need this sort of thing.
>>143110833
>>143111174
Me showing my drawings to that other anon.
>>143111216
I see what you did there but I'm not really that impressed
>>143111176
I'm making submissions for other boards as well.
I think they will only do this for slower boards, not boards like /a/ or /v/, for example.
>>143111174
Me getting "hugged"
>>143111174
Look at these sluts
Disgraceful
>>143111174
I hadn't noticed that camel toe before, there's something new every time.
>>143111354
Yeah, that's me.
>>143111174

Someone should submit the Kaguya-sama ones.
>>143111174
Lazy attempt, make a better version whenever.
>>143111526
Nice.
>>143111526
>not left
Literally one job.
>>143111526
Perhaps one of the images that are more like a lineup would work better considering we only have so little vertical space to work with.
>>143107320
looks like we have plenty of time to make banners. I only use /a/ anyway.
Alternatively.
>>143111647
>>143111721
I like>>143111752 the most. All the nonvisible parts of the bodies could suggest something lewd happening.
>>143111887
My autism doesn't really like that part of the text is covering the girl on the left but it can't be helped.
Alternatively, people could submit banners for each pair of girls (if it gets included in the contest) and see which you get in the rotation if they all get approved.
>>143111721
The only thing I would change would be moving "/a/ - Anime and Manga" up into the top left corner.
>>143111973
>Alternatively, people could submit banners for each pair of girls (if it gets included in the contest) and see which you get in the rotation if they all get approved.
That would just split the votes.
>>143111752
Put a geiger counter hidden at the left
>>143112088
As much as I'm sick of this shitty meme, at least it would draw less attention than the other ideas so far.
>>143112067
baka
>>143108140
>adblock on 4chan
disgusting
Just choose a row
>>143109787
It's fun to post banners so other people can see them. I don't really give a fuck about the 4chan pass.
>>143112349
Third from the top looks good.
>>143112497
Text looks like shit.
>>143112025
As it should be, waifu wars are /a/'s bed and button.
>>143112547
That would lead to something shitty that most people don't like to winning.
>>143112546
>>143112497
this one feels more genuine than>>143112648
>>143112648
Much better.
pretty cool thread OP, but is there a banner that can even defeat this one?
>>143112683
No, fuck you. This is exactly why so many shitty new banners got accepted last time when they look like complete shit.
>>143112712
Which banner are we talking about here?
>>143112712
Let's just make them all shitty, low quality ones like this so they don't even bother with /a/
>>143112761
That would never work because there will always be that guy who agrees to it, but then does an actual good job and gets the prize.
>>143112712
This is almost bad enough to work
>>143112761
>getting your laughs by pretending to be retarded will lead to being infested by actual retards who think they're in good company etc etc
We lose no matter what unless the banners are boring as fuck
>>143112828
Lolis are the answer.
>>143112828
I meant so the mods don't even bother putting /a/'s up at all, but >>143112817 is probably right anyway.
>>143112868
Dammit anon you can't solve all your problems with lolis
>>143112903
If lolis were used to solve all problems there would not be any problems left.
>>143112868
This would attract the actual pedophiles
>>143112990
I wouldnt mind another Mat
>>143112990
Better than newfags/casuals/retards.
>>143113155
Simple but effective
>>143107320
Posting 100%Oh See
>>143113207
wrong banner you piece of human excrement. I hope the Russians drop a nuke on your house
>>143111982
Lolis solve everything, apparently.
Crossboarders will be sorely disappointed when they arrive and there's a perceived dearth of lolis.
>>143113377
shit
>>143110915
Flowers is on Steam? holy shit.
Wait, what the fuck happened to desustorage?
Are posts not getting archived at all?
>all those archived threads that I wanted to check out are now gone

>>143113532
Fuck you're right. I've had 2 trap threads open for weeks, waiting to eventually go through them and they won't load.
>>143113532
It's been wishy-washy from the get go honestly, I really miss archive.moe
>>143113606

>>143113532
Use fireden.
>>143113606
>>143113629

>>143113664
>you get redirected to fireden when opening an image on archived.moe
not bad
does it work with 4chanX though? If I set the preffered archive to archived will it still redirect me to the image hosted at fireden?
>>143113878
but cowtits are justice
>>143113877
I blame /sp/
>>143111261
Me on the left wondering why all your drawings are so lewd.
>>143113877
>Our domain registar terminated our entire account due to CP.
Oh boy I wonder which board to blame for this? I know /int/ and /sp/ has this fucking Polish poster that posts CP nearly every week.
>>143112349
Vomiting Mado needs to be replaced with laughing Mado.
I made this banner during the last banner submission thing but it was over the banner limit size.
I thought it was pretty good.
>>143114014
Russia got banned a while ago. Somebody said a Russian was trying to sell CP on /b/. I have no idea if this is true or not though.
>>143114126
They were DDoSing the site.
>>143114126
I thought Russia was banned because of Russians ddos'ing the servers because of the russian ruble thread on /pol/
>>143114174
>>143114207
I see. Like I said, I had no idea why they were actually banned.
>>143114068
Nah, just the vomit should be swapped with something more palatable, like the rainbow candy flow in this Jinrui version or the black ink in the Ika version.
The expression is much more important to indicate disgust than the vomit is. It's one of my favourite reaction images, but it disgusts me to see the vomit each time.
>>143114261
That version grosses me out, it's like she's puking her milk and cereals.
>>143114261
Going to be honest with you man, that's pretty stupid. It's one of my favorites too but the whole point is that they're all laughing whores, one random puking bitch on the left is out of place as hell.
>>143114261
There's also a version where Madotsuki spills blood instead. Even that disgusts me less.
>>143114388
Really? Wow, I didn't expect that.
>>143114390
I meant the reaction image itself in general, not for this particular use in the banner.
>>143114388
Fruity Pebbles are disgusting.
>>143114014
What can mankind do against such reckless faggotry
>>143114466
Shut the fuck up faggot, fruity pebbles shit all over cocoa pebbles, prove me wrong. Protip: you can't.
>>143114744
Fuck both, eat something good like Honey Bunches of Oats, gaylord.
>>143114492
>>143114744
Cereal is inherently shit, I only eat oatmeal
>>143114744
>>143114777
>>143114904
>Breakfast.
Worst meal of the day, quite honestly.
>>143114952
Hell no, my morning tea and breakfast is the highlight of the day
>>143114952
>not enjoying a healthy and balanced breakfast to get your day started on the right foot
I bet you don't even wake up early enough to call it a breakfast.I agree though
>>143114952
Haven't eaten it since college. Most important meal my ass
>>143115000
And you wonder how you wound up here.
Nice trips though.
>>143114777
Don't drag HBoO into this, especially when it's inferior to cinnamon Life. If you've never dipped a fruit flavored poptart into a bowl of Fruity Pebbles and used it kinda like a spoon you can eat, then I do not envy your sad empty existence.
>>143114904
Again, don't go dragging oatmeal into it. Oatmeal is great, especially the steel cut stuff that's like half grits, but saying cereal is shit is like saying you hate everything good in the world because you have a small penis. Tough break there by the way, just tell everyone who sees it that you were just in the pool.
>>143114952
>Worst meal
>When coffee is included
Baka desu senpai
>>143115135
These American cereals sound like they're all 99% sugar.
>>143115198
That's the idea.
This is a seriously bad idea.
I don't give a shit about 90% percent of the boards on this site, and I have a feeling most other people here feel the same way.
I thought Hiro was going to keep the status quo, not fuck everything up with invitations to shit up other people's boards.
>>143115198
As opposed to what
>>143115135
What the fuck. It better be a frosted wildberry poptart if you're going the whole nine yards.
>>143115198
They practically are.
>>143115135
There's just too much sugar in most kinds of cereal for me to enjoy it. And I'm not eating some diet cereal made for nervous 3D women. Oatmeal is cheap, tasty, simple and healthy.
>>143115198
You get steel by adding 1% of carbon into iron.
Talk about magic.
>>143115252
He's trying to spice things up a little, trying to create a bit of diversity among the boards, or at least trying to make the slows boards faster by getting more people interested.
>>143115257
Good point.
I vote we put in just a picture of cereal as the banner.
>>143115198
We have tons of other delicious stuff that's less sugary like Rice Crispies, Wheaties, Crispix, Kix, Raisin Bran, it's just that most of the time we end up dumping sugar on it anyways so it doesn't make a whole lot of difference. What the hell kind of cereal you got that's unsweetened but apparently still delicious? And don't say "hot cereal", we already covered that.
>>143115252
If the idea is to revitalize the deddest of boards, I think it's an okay idea. Otherwise, it's pointless. Everyone that knows enough to be a good poster knows all the big boards anyway.
>>143115346
WHAT
CEREAL
>having anything but fruit and tea for breakfast
Fucking plebs, get off my board.
>>143115403
What kind of fruit? I sure hope you don't say some pleb fruit like banana
>>143115438
Fuck right off, you sound like a butthurt applefag.
>>143115438
Obscure, exotic fruit imported from the Moon, you wouldn't even know about it if I told you.
>>143115386

Fair as that is, I'll have you know I got three boxes of Frosted Mini Wheats at the store for like 70 cents each last week, all different flavors. That's right, two bucks for three boxes of name brand cereal that's kinda sugary but mostly just wheat, cheap, simple, tasty and healthy enough.
I didn't even know they had a maple and cinnamon one out now, it's pretty good.
