whenever i see this banner
i think of this comic.
also, my vote is the skyline or the bicycle.
also, "be vigilant" is a great banner. _________________

Not a bad comic! I always think of the fond memories I had playing Gargoyle's Quest on the GB B&W.
Great game!

I guess we're shooting for 500 now, then? I made a few today myself, becasue I wasn't feeling very productive. That, and it's been raining all day so that sets the mood for banner making. I give you: Dragon Quest VIII and Shadow of the Colossus.
I think the DQVIII one came out alright, if not a bit blurry(but I think that only enhances the charm). I'm not too sure about SotC, though, but there they are. |

If the original image was really small it could just be stretching artifacts. But yeah, try not to stretch any images to a larger size when making banners. Just find bigger images whenever possible.

I wish I'd saved this at a higher resolution.
There's my first try; a banner celebrating the memory of a game that frustrated me to no end as a child. _________________ www.call-to-adventure.com

Some Noctis screens. Note that Noctis has a natural resolution of 320x240 with anti-aliasing, so I double sized these before cropping. I didn't have smoothing on when I resized them since they're already aliased and it ends up looking like a blurry mess. This is closer to playing the game in fullscreen.
Oh! I quite like seeing them stacked. _________________ | Little bird fighting against a bat sect game |

Whoa!
That game sounds totally awesome. I can't believe I haven't heard of it yet. I always feel a bit embarassed when I hear about a great game late in the day. I wonder how many classics I've missed over the years? |

This Beyond Good & Evil one is really nicely done.
Hey, is one of the banners the Moebius drawn concept art for Panzer Dragoon? I could have sworn I saw it but I don't know what number it is.
The one I'm thinking of looks a little like this, if that helps:
(This is Breath of Fire something isn't it?) _________________ | Little bird fighting against a bat sect game | |

You mean this one?
That was our first banner, and actually the inspiration for our Game-cover inspired issue covers. See:

Yes! That's the one. Wow, the similarity between that wing and the Breath of Fire hang glider is kind of remarkable. No wonder I mixed them up in my head.
Anyway, I really love Jean Giraud's artwork, and Panzer Dragoon had some just plain beautiful designs. I felt that another one of Moebius' game arts, the Kult cover, deserved a banner so I made these. A bit difficult to crop the image nicely in the long format so I tried a few ways. I'd only use one though, which do you think is best?
Of related interest, I first saw the Panzer Dragoon paintings here. _________________ | Little bird fighting against a bat sect game |

Not so much a ring world as a debris ring around a planet, like Saturn has.
Dessgeega: what's that from? And what kind of controllers are they holding? _________________ | Little bird fighting against a bat sect game | |

Incidentally this is why I made banners of those. Too bad I couldn't get screens on my own (without the jpegliness); it displays pretty glitchily on my machine. _________________ | Little bird fighting against a bat sect game | |

I just had the Jack Thompson banner.
It freaked me right out, I was like:
"Crikey! The cad has infiltrated TGQ now, on his quest to vanquish videogames everywhere!"
It was the eyes you see.
Whoever did it, well done. I laughed loudly. |
