O.P. Shocked  Halo 2 Cover Design Contest!!!!!
Halo 2 Cover Design Contest!
Well, after seeing the Half-Life 2 cover design contest, I decided to make my own Halo 2 cover design contest. I don't like the final Halo 2 cover image tbh...it looks too much like a cartoon. Anyways, go ahead and try your luck, I mean what more could you want? It's a Gmail invite and more! :P


RULES
- Entries will NOT be accepted unless they match these dimensions: front [355x500] - side [40x500] - back [355x500] (A template to make this easier can be found HERE)
- Entries MUST be for the XBOX version (Halo 2 is NOT comming out for PC)
- Entries MUST be posted in this thread
- Entries MAY be modified up to the closing date and time, entries modified after that will be disqualified.
- Entries will not be accepted after 11:59:59 PM forum time on September 9th 2004, and the contest winner will be revealed on September 13, 2004 (I am going to consider every entry very carefully ;)).
- The description on the back of the cover DOES count for extra Kudos ;)
- The best format for entries is JPEG if hosted on these forums, or BMP if it is hosted on an outside server.
- All questions may be PM'd to me
- It would help greatly in delivering prizes if you could PM me your contact email
- All entries MUST contain some kind of graphic/concept art/depiction/screenshot from Halo 2. Resources can be found at:
http://www.bungie.net
http://halo.bungie.org
http://www.google.com (try searching around ;))

Don't be afraid to take risks - remember, you're trying to impress me ;)


Prizes(subject to change[the gmail invites will not change :P])
[Image: logo.gif]

- First place entry will recieve 2 Gmail (http://www.gmail.com) invites, and some....hush hush...Halo 2 information!

- Second place will recieve 1 Gmail invite, and some....hush hush...Halo 2 information!

- Third place will recieve a Gmail invite!

- One Gmail invite MAY also be awarded to a cover I find deserving (e.g. hand drawn)


THE CONTEST IS CLOSED!

DON'T FORGET, YOU NEED TO USE THE TEMPLATE DIMENSIONS!
The template for the cover can be found at http://shoutbox.menthix.net/attachment.php?pid=296733

Also: Please let this ONLY be related to the Halo 2 covers, no off-topic posts.
Thanks to Traxor for the pic.s from the European games fair because, of course, he has nothing better to do ;)

Oh, and if u want inspiration, I made a cover just for the hell of it which can be found at the following link (FYI, I'm not entering it in my own contest :P):

http://shoutbox.menthix.net/attachment.php?pid=297343

Lastly: The template IS in .GIF format, but that is to keep the file size ultra low, I HIGHLY suggest you use .JPG, .JPEG, .BMP or .PNG format for entries (if hosted on the forums, I suggest .JPG or .JPEG.) The reason being that .GIF is a VERY low quality image.
