i would even go as far as to make the circuit dealies go behind the characters to the bottom of the poster.

I was saying to Frank on IM that I don't think that is a good idea. The banner will be behind a table, so the characters need to sit higher (as they are) so they aren't lost behind the table from a distance. The only way to make the logo bigger would be to push them down, which I don't want to do.

Ahhh, looks good then.

i like it. it just seems like a lot of yellow space to me. couldn't you do something like this..i mean this is a bit too busy..but i think you should throw some black in there.

Cool thanks for the mock up Irate. I'm going to play around with a few ideas for the back now. But I know what you mean, it needs a little something.

im a big fan of the site background so im a little biased. but i dont think a little contrast can hurt.

How about this?

Hmm, while I don't like the banner color blending in like it does it Irate's, I like the yellow splat with black behind.
The black splat behind the characters makes the middle too busy and distracting personally.

Plum looks too angry... Just make her eyebrows a little less V ish.

Well Im out of time. It stays. Sorry.

Oh and I tried black on yellow, the characters get lost and your eyes go right for the black.

Annnnd I'm not changing Plum's face dude.

She doesn't really look angry at all, dude. Looks...evil.

I've been thinking about this all day. I hate it. I'm going to be up all night doing this shit.

AHAHAHAHAHAA!! im sorry dude. i didnt mean to make it worse.

Hahahah, no no, it's not your fault. I was actually messing around with something similar to the idea you presented before that. I think I just want to go very simple with it. I don't mean to come off like a prick and I appreciate your help!

o you dont. i can just picture you looking at it and hating it more and more with every change you make. i have been there.

Hahaha, yeah, if this was a physical thing, this would be the part where I would rip it down, crumble it up and throw it into the trash can in a fit of rage.

WINNER

Banner is officially sent off to the printers along with another banner and 250 post cards. All together (along with a banner stand and 7 day printing/shipping) it came close to 250 dollars. It's kind of high, but I guess it's not too bad of a price. To print a banner at a local shop up the street it would have cost 200 just for the one. Hopefully this stuff will turn out decent. I'll cry if it doesn't, but I gotta use it!

It looks like he is levitating.

I will pretend that I didn't read that.

Now I can't unsee it.

Oh well, it's better than the Grey cut out I made for Wizard World that looked like he was showing everyone his dick from the back....

Just say that he is really playing with POWER!!!!!!!

This is what I was talking about... one of the worst design choices I ever made.



I remember I put the cut out on the table and I immediately went "Oh shit, he's got a dick."

AHAHAHAH!!
