May I make a request? GTO banner? With Onizuka smoking like this.

Or perhaps an Akira banner?

I fully support this. GTO's opening ranks as one of my favorite openings in anime. It's incredibly edgy and filled with attitude.

Review from BatOtaku13


I don't see how this review could change anyone's view. It's just an End of Evangelion admirer praising the show without any solid stand to base the praise from. The Setokai Yakuindomo pic made me smile though. :D

Banners are done.

For Ducat



For Alabastre

Unfortunately, an HQ version of the picture you asked for is not available (since the show has never been remastered), so I had to do what I could with this one. I managed to fix colours and sharpness a bit, although I'm still not sure if the result is any good. But anyway, here it is:



Just some random bonuses

Since Akira was mentioned as well, I decided to make it, but I wanted it to be different from the rest, so I went with a minimalist approach. I understand it may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I thought the idea to be interesting.
So, here's Akira

And while I was at it, I made a minimalist banner for another anime from our Enlightenment list. I'm sure you can recognize it.


And that's it. I think I've had enough banners for a while xD

P.S.
I haven't forgotten about the coat of arms, I'm working on it now. V.2. should be done later tonight.

Although Italian isn't my strongest language I'm almost certain that "nella" is wrong, it should be "alla"; as it is, I think it translates to "welcome in the family"

Wtf is with MAL? Pagination seems to be broken again, so I can't see the fourth page in the topic. I don't know if others will even see this post.


@Alabastre
@Ducat

No problem, you're welcome. Glad you like them.

Maegil said:

Yeah, it does translate as "in the family", it's just that in my language we say "in" so that mislead me to use the same preposition in Italian. I always make mistakes with prepositions, in any language.
Anyway, corrected version's below.



Coat of arms version 2 is finally finished.



I tried following Maegil's suggestions AND making the whole thing work, so I ended up changing most of the things and going in a more "classic" way with the design.
The tower really didn't fit, I tried but I didn't like the result so I abandoned that. The pyramid is kinda undefined, but I think it's at least better than the previous one. I'm not sure about the colour though.
Speaking of colours, I hope this colour palette is more vibrant and contrasting.
The old owl was replaced with a new one because it didn't fit the rest of the design, yet I didn't want to completely give up on using an owl. I'm not sure how I feel with the result, but this one was the best option.
I'm open for suggestions about the pyramid colour/form, the size of the motto (is it large enough?) etc. I won't be redoing the whole thing again though, I simply don't have time.

According to the omniscient eye of the great color spectrum, a purple, an indigo, a yellow, and an orange banner are left to complete the rainbow connection. It's so deliriously pretty to look at! Drool before it!

That sounds like a challenge! Why did I have to read it?! Now I won't have peace of mind until the rainbow is completed.
Let's see...Juuni Kokuki or TTGL could be orange, Tsukimi no Ie or Haibane Renmei yellow, Perfect Blue indigo and NGE purple.

Well, when I have time and a lot of inspiration, I may try to complete it. I can't promise anything though, but we'll see.

As per ForgoneReality's request, I've made a gif with all banners combined.
Well, actually, not all are there as I didn't include those three which were made by request (from Ducat, Alabastre and Saeko). I consider those individual banners of their respective users.

Anyway, here's the gif.



It also includes two new banners, which I promised I would make (to complete our rainbow of banners). They cover orange and yellow colours. Which leaves me with two more (indigo and purple) banners to make, but I'll leave those for some other time.

And here are the two new banners separately.


P.S.
@ForgoneReality and anyone else who intends to use the gif banner

I suggest you save and rehost it, lest if be deleted.

Just a little thing concerning the Baccano! banner:

"Benvenuti alla famiglia" is not grammatically correct and you should replace that with "benvenuti in famiglia"

unless you put it that way on purpose of course.

Valkyrion said:

OK, should I just put "in" in front of "famiglia" or use "nella" (preposition + article)?
The first time I made I banner it was "nella famiglia" but Maegil said it was incorrect and should be replaced with "alla".

I happen to be italian and it doesn't sound natural at all, or correct in any way

"alla" is used for locations and not for groups of people or circles. Nella or In are more correct and you can use either of the two.

To be a little more precise: In sounds a lot more informal while Nella sound more like an official/formal introduction.

Depending on the effect you want to convey, you decide since it's your banner

Yeah, I thought nella/in was the correct myself, but since I am not a native speaker I couldn't be completely certain so I changed it when Maegil said it was incorrect.
Anyway, thank you for the answer.

Here's the corrected old version.

I think one of the admins should update the first post with all banners to make them easier to find.

As for the same banner in the gif, I'll fix it later.

It can be done with a scripted image rotator. It can be a bit of a hassle because it requires you to host files somewhere on your site, but I believe Paul is using a simpler way, that is this site
http://sig.grumpybumpers.com
You can create an account there (takes 10 seconds) and then just put as many image links as you'd like to have rotated.

The banners are done.

@SaberRitsu

The image you wanted me to make the banner of was too small in width, which means I either had to mess up aspect ration by resizing it without constraining proportions or find a bigger version. I chose the latter option. I couldn't find the one with the exact same colours as yours had, so I had to improvise with filters - hopefully the end result is OK.
Anyway, here it is.

@Tavor

I made two versions because I couldn't decide for one. Pick whichever you like more.




Aaaand, while I was at it, I made a couple of other random Evangelion banners. Not sure if anyone would like them, but whatever, it took me a couple of minutes, so here they are.


@Noriko

I didn't have many choices for a Gunbuster banner, since the good pics for this anime are not exactly numerous. So, I had to work with what I could find. In any case, this is the end result.

These are GREAT! However, if it's okay, would some minor adjustments be okay? I hate to be nitpicky here, but something along the lines of putting a black outline around the white text so it's a bit easier to read (the second one)? Other than that, I LOVE IT!

And those last two......

Sure. I was going to add stroke around the text, but I wasn't sure if it'd look good with the image. However, you're right, it is hard to read, so I should outline the text with a dark border or something like that.
I am too sleepy to do it right now though, so I'll take care of it tomorrow. Just wait a bit.
