Doesn't it seem like it's been quite a while since we had a new banners contest? Like at least a year, hasn't it? Who else thinks it's time for some new banners?
>>563799
The last one was in 2013, I wouldn't be opposed to another one.
>>563800
So much has changed. M00t gone, Hiro, etc. Plus who can count all the habbenings and memetic etc. /biz/ is the only board I know of that updated its sticky image to include Hiroshimoot.
Summer is a bland time for the drawfags, too, since winter ball is half the year away.
NEW BANNERS CONTEST HIROSHIMOOT!
/mlp/ sub
>>563804
Northerners are fucking insufferable.
It is currently winter for half the planet.
>>563814
Yet that doesn't change the amount of time from now to winterball.
>>563813
disgusting
Webm banners should be a thing. Don't know how feasible it is, but it would help a lot in making new banners
/a/ drawfag, link your waifu's here >>>/a/142969617 and I'll draw a banner of her

Someone want to add a logo to this or something?
I just want at least half the Spongebob banners gone. If a new banner contest would fix that I would be happy.
>>563902
On board for that, anonbro.
>>563813
I once saw a banner that was the Dark Side of the Moon rainbow turning into Rainbow Dash that looked pretty cool. That should be added.
>>563896
>>563902
this and also the shrek one please
>>563818
winterball is cancer anyways
>>563913
Wouldn't this be a good time to ask for the banners that got removed to come back too?
>>563923
Sure. If we get enough attention on this though, the mods or Hiro will probably say that they need to be re-submitted. Since they might be gone from the collection.
>>563928
Don't you have your own church, I happen to like orthodox christian icons though I'm not very religious myself
>>563799
I think that we may already have a shiggy banner, but ah well.
>>563923

Could use some work, but /pol/Harbor definitely deserves a banner.
>>563896
>>563907
This would work a lot better with the Duwang version.

>>563813
If they added this, make it semi-common on /v/. It'd be fun.
Hive mind. This needs to happen.
>>560463
For /pol/, obviously
So, lets do this, what stuff from every board is worth becoming a banner?
>/a/
Tomo-chan cotton ithinkitmaybeallmyfault.png
>>564995
/mu/ needs Lemmy on a banner.
/k/ needs an "It's because I'm black, isn't it?" with an AR-15.
/tv/ needs Bane, so it can help to move on from it by making it appear historical, and the .webm girl, Paula.
/ck/ needs something with booze and a hambuger.
/x/ tried to solve a serial murder case this year, and was visited by a digital poltergeist
/b/ had the fappening and the strangler, as well as toast guy who lit himself on fire
/i/ lost the oldest thread on 4chan this year.
/pol/ is mentioned above.
Hiro should be featured generally since he's the new m00t.
/sci/ had a pretty good time with KIC 8463853, the star that might have actual ayy lmaos building a Dyson swarm.
There is a serial posting lunatic on /diy/ who built - in stunning detail and craftsmanship - a testicle warming device he swears can be used for birth control. It dominated that board for days. The BNC connector he used for the power source caused nightmares for many anons.
/an/ was on about the gorilla killed in Cincinnati.
I should be able to think of something about /lit/ but they've just been their normal paint-drying selves for months now. The Irish Poet Laureate could get a banner I suppose.
>>564995
I doubt they'll ever accept one of it but Nipplegate was pretty big on /a/
>>565460
>/tv/ needs Bane
It's already a banner, though.
can someone pls finally make this happen
Not mine but this needs to become banner sized.
>>565607
Fuck. Is Bane posting more than three years old? That's even more autistic than I would have guessed for /tv/.
>>565622
Silver Age comics are so ridiculous.
>>565786
When I downsize it, it becomes unreadable. No banner!

If the banners are global, then why should they have board specific names on them?
>>566837
>>566859
You dummy. Hiro wants to make banners to clickable for cross-board promotion.
>>566855
So only one banner per board is actually going to get put in to rotation?
>>566867

Sorry about that anon. I was bumping them both, but had to sleep.
Hooray for a new banner contest!
So can you submit only 1 banner or is it 1 banner per board?
>>566950
I don't understand it either, why not just fill out a captcha and be done with it...?
I don't think people will give enough fucks to spamflood their favorite submissions. It's just adspace no one will care about and if the people in charge of the site notice something suspicious, they could easily remove and ban abusers.
No need to force a 4chan Gold Account™ limitation in my opinion.
>300x100
It says 468x60 on the banner page
Eventually there's going to be a normal banner contest, right?
>>563799
WE DID IT, NIGGAS
>only 4chan Pass users will be able to vote
>>563902
I hope the contest adds more spongebob banners to the pile just to piss you off.
ITT: /qa/ can't read simple directions.
I think it's unfortunate that they made it into a contest with a tangible reward (4chan pass).
I liked it better when anons posted ideas or work-in-progress banners and others offered suggestions or improvements.
Now anons will keep their ideas to themselves and quality will be lost as a result.
>>567289

Or just disregard the contest and keep blocking ads, as I suggested in the first place.
All five boards for week one have active threads with discussion, and some submissions.

>>571067
/news/ is up on Monday. I'll put it in then. It looks like /3/, /gd/ and /po/ are going to need the weekend anyway. They might only have three or four submissions each.
Which is kind of strange since /3/ and /gd/ are graphic artist boards, and even /po/ is artistic. I thought they would have been all over this.
Learning that /n/ is actually 90% bicycles was hilarious. They're gonna have some good ones.
Can I submit a banner for each board?
Do people generally not know that banners are 300 x 100?
>>571075
Some banners in this threads are for the contest.
These are exceptions: board banners in the places where the advertisements usually go
>>571073
Maybe we should help them.
Anyway, does anyone here have a pass?
>>571075
Rules. Pic related.
>>571074
It doesn't say not, so yeah. I'm not submitting for boards I don't really know the culture of though. Like /n/. The only thing I found about them is they really, really like bicycles and city planning. Not a single car thread.
>>571079
No pass. I made /po/ a banner just in case. They're kind of a quiet bunch.
>>571080
>Not a single car thread.
Why would there be a car thread? Cars get their own board.
>>571086
/o/, yeah. But I would have thought that there might have been threads about the transportation dimension of automobiles. I've only lurked for minutes, not hours. Maybe they talk about zipper merge efficiencies and accordion memory effect or the visibility-distance memory effect of freeway traffic jams on the weekends.
>>566855
>Must contain the full board name (e.g., /a/ - Anime & Manga).
Sounds ugly.
When I try to submit a second banner for a different board, I get taken back to the submission page instead of confirmation.
Is this a bug that appeared overnight or can we only submit one banner per IP or something?
>>571416
I don't know, but I'll bump us for visibility.
"Oh, mighty lords of 4chan - what is the deal on how many submissions we can make?"
>>571416
If we parse this very carefully:
"You can submit a banner for this week's boards by clicking on the [Submit Banner] link below, and you can vote on the banners submitted last week by using the drop down menu to select a board."
"a banner for this week's boards" seems to say 1 banner per submitter, chosen from among the five boards for that week. Which implies that we can each submit one banner every week. So as long as you are only enthusiastic about one of the five boards, fine. But if two or more boards come up in a given week that you really want to submit for, you have to choose just the one you like the best.
Or something. I can see throttling it down when /b/ or /pol/ or /tv/ comes up. Maybe the slower boards just have to dumb it down to the lowest common denominator.
>>571548
So you can submit as many as you want?
>>571552
I submitted three total, all for different boards.
I haven't tried submitting two banners for one board, though
When does this week's close? End of 26th or at start?
Ah, I see what this is.
Hope these banner ads bring more posters (non-faggots) to /3/ since that board has so much potential.
I know that only Pass users can vote, but will regular users be able to see all the submissions at least?
>>571553
Thanks. Good news, then.
Welp. It looks like submissions have ended for the first five boards and voting will be up soon. So we'll get an idea of what the boards think of themselves, and how the display of submissions and the voting will work.
cm, trv, wsr, news and p up next week.
I know the news guys are hyped. and /p/ - photo has some culture. Any contacts for cm, wsr, trv?
/cm/ has a thread going here:
>>>/cm/3036977
/p/ - Photo has a decent thread going
>>>/p/2866882
All three banners for three boards that I submitted didn't show up. All have been pretty high quality and according to the requirements. Here's /gd/ for example >>>/gd/274672
When I check the status, it still says "pending approval"
Why do I even bother anymore
>>572606
Don't give up, maybe mods are busy.
That banner is really good.
>>572606
Very nice banner, anon. I really doubt you're being excluded for anything, at least intentionally.
>>572639
>>572656
Oh nevermind, it looks like the banners are still being added. They showed up just now.
I think it would more fair if all banners showed up at the same time, considering that some people may just check the submissions one time and give their vote for they currently see instead of checking the list again later, but I don't mind as long as it shows up
>>572680
I agree. One banner already had five votes.
Those who're winning for now.
>>572691
Isn't it supposed to have board title as well?

Get your shit together Hiro.
>>572691
so is it gonna be one banner for a board? I thought we would get multiple per board in rotation.
Everyone is just voting for the first one in the list.
>>573145
I hear the contest is rigged.
>>573145
No they don't. Look at the different boards. The only board where the first banner is the one with the most votes is /po/
>>566855
>advertising tiny boards so that they get flooded with newfags
>forcing you to buy a JewPass to vote
>have to enable ads if you want to see them, even though Hiro still hasn't fixed the malware ads
Why can't Hiro do a single thing right? People who haven't lurked long enough to know what every board is about aren't ready to leave their insulated shitposting on /b/, /v/, /pol/, or /r9k/. 4chan passes shouldn't give you special privileges, it's just an alternative to captcha.
Why doesn't Hiro understand anything about the site he's in charge of?
>>573543
I think he wanted to stop vote spamming
Either way this is insignificant and no better or worse than just having staff decide
>>573544
You may be right, but it's still a shitty idea and can easily be seen as a way to force people to purchase what is now essentially a 4chan gold account.
If you really wanted to ask a board to make a banner for itself you'd be better off quietly throwing up a sticky and letting them work things out for themselves instead of deciding for them that they need an ad, announcing it to the whole site, then letting everyone (except those unwilling to pay up) vote for all the boards they don't go to.
>>573545
>way to force people to purchase what is now essentially a 4chan gold account
Why would anyone buy a 4chan pass just to vote?
It' doesn't make any sense to buy a pass to vote for yourself to win a pass, because you've already bought it.
And buying it just to vote for someone else's banner is not a good enough reason, either
>>573545
>You may be right, but it's still a shitty idea and can easily be seen as a way to force people to purchase what is now essentially a 4chan gold account.
I thought it was an excellent idea.
It's a really creative and fun way to get more people to buy passes thereby helping to keep the site afloat.
Make no mistake, this contest was a ploy to get people to buy more passes, but I think they approached it in a really great way.
>>573588
I never said it was a good idea, just that the decision could have been with sales in mind when opting for this instead of some other way of voting.
>>573591
Forcing people to pay to have access to site functionality, no matter how inconsequential, is a step in the wrong direction. Passes were made so that people who wanted to donate could get something useful out of it, not so that those who do get special treatment.
>>573597
>site functionality
What?
This is a nice way to encourage people to buy passes. It doesn't negatively impact site functionality.
>>573604
It's locking a feature (voting for banners) behind a paywall. Paying users are able to do more than normal users.
>>573858
And?
>>573543
>Why doesn't Hiro understand anything about the site he's in charge of?
Because he wants to consider it as the West 2ch, when the West has no 2ch.
How does claiming your prize work? I assume it involves the email you put in your submission, but if you win multiple times can you give someone else one of the victory passes? Or can you save it for next year and use it then?
>>573543
>>have to enable ads if you want to see them, even though Hiro still hasn't fixed the malware ads
There haven't been malware ads for MONTHS. Seriously, get your computer checked.

You don't get any email for getting your banner approved, you have to check it manually in the status link you've been given.
>>575739
No, I just checked the link I got when I submitted it.
I hope you saved it anon. Otherwise you won't be able to find out until voting starts.
>>570431

>>576189

>>576189
Look at the boards in question. The fact that it has that many votes is impressive

Make this into a /v/ banner please
So what's the word on submitting multiple banners for one board? I've made three for /an/. Might just give two out to other posters when submissions start if I can't submit more than one.

I'm pretty sure I got it right and haven't received anything.
Reading the page one more time, it says

So maybe they'll only send the pass once banners for ALL boards get picked, which could take a few weeks or even months.
