As fabulous as Hilary is she's a touch out of date. Plus my computer had a little exploding PSU related accident the other week so I'm only on the internets via a laptop.

Therefore, we need a new footer image and what better way to get one than a nice wee competition.

:arrow: Dimensions = 360x110px
:arrow: Must include the Metropol logo which you can nab from here
:arrow: include text "the forum discussing the forum discussing television"
:arrow: include text "a metropol 24/7 production © Metropol MMIII - MMVIII"
:arrow: not look shit on the black background of the footer
:arrow: not be designed by trishite
:arrow: not be in french therefore giving people an excuse to show just how fucking clever they are by saying bonjour

(although it needs to include the logo, tagline and copyright it doesn't have to be in the same layout as currently. feel free to resize them and move them around.)

Stick your ideas in this thread, use the attachment thing down there if you lack webspace and good luck.
Entries from Windows will cost 10p, from Linux 11p and from Macs considerably more. Please ask daddy before using his best suit.

We need this to be a sticky.

EDIT: And so it is done, great!

Or rather than one winner, pick the best, and alternate each day.

The same way TV Forum does the same thing with their front-page pic.

A real triumph of originality from Mr Martin there.

I might have a try at this.

I can't see anything in the rules to exclude Comic Sans and alternate lines in red and blue.

Is my sarcasm-o-meter on the blink, or is that a genuine compliment? If so, isnt that unusual for metropol? :lol:

Well, cdd did say it making it immediately wrong but whether sarcasm was implied or not will decide if it's in your favour or not.

I'd say my entry's fairly topical, albeit mostly redundant after tomorrow.

Here's a not very serious attempt at a footer...
