Do you have amazing graphics skills?
It doesn't matter! Here, we value creativity over perfectionism, and contests are a perfect way to endure such a feat!
2009 is right around the corner, boys and girls, and that means we can celebrate New Year's -- including a brand new skin! However, the skin is lacking a banner, and a banner is essential to make it spiffy and nifty! Plus, the faster we have a banner, the less I sound corny.
And it's up to you, boys and girls, to make this dream true! Until January 1, 2009, you have a chance to earn House points for your House by making a banner for the New Year's skin (which you can access via modification of your profile).
All entries will receive 25 points for their House [professors may choose which House(s) the points go to]. Meaning: if you slap "Happy New Year's, Everyone!" on a plain black background and shape it into a banner, you get 25 whole points! (However, we ask that you don't do this, because not everyone has access to graphics-making programs and this wouldn't be fair.) The winner will receive 100 points (that's right, 100 big ones) for his or her house!
The admins [Salina, Evan, Sam-Sam (that's me!), and Chris) will decide the winner. All entries must be posted here -- if you PM them to us, we're just going to tell you to post them in this thread. If you don't post your entry in this thread, you won't get any points. The final date for entry is January 1, 2009.
Have a happy new year!

And it's up to you, boys and girls, to make this dream true! Until January 1, 2009, you have a chance to earn House points for your House by making a banner for the New Year's skin (which you can access via modification of your profile). - The banner has to be about New Year's -- no exceptions.
- The banner should involve this site, and it would be really nifty if it was, but the most important thing is the New Year's rule.
- The banner must be the right size -- about the size of the header please.
- It has to be appropriate!
- Only on entry per person! I didn't say per character -- I said per person. Remember that.
