June 15, 201213 yr I wouldn't have a clue how to actually start designing this, but I think what is needed is to emphasise what in essence the chart actually *is*. And that is a list, and movement within that list. So I'd have 'no.1', 'no.2, 'no.3' etc in diminishing size fonts. The words (perhaps with the appropriate arrow) 'climber', 'faller' and 'non-mover'. Also 'new-entry' & 're-entry'. Well, there's a few ideas if anybody wants to run with them :) Too much information in one banner.
June 15, 201213 yr Too much information in one banner. Possibly. It could look rather 'busy'. But I was thinking of just say no.1 to no.5 in decreasing font size, not the whole top 40! And also in quite small, faint lettering, like the current banner. There's a lot more words on there than I was envisaging, and it dosen't look cluttered.
June 15, 201213 yr I made a couple of entries: http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww216/sdw4/SundayChartShowThreadBanner1.png http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww216/sdw4/UKChartChatBanner2.png I hope they look okay :D . Edit: Here's the last one without the logo: http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww216/sdw4/UKChartChatBanner2New.png Edited June 16, 201213 yr by ಠ_ಠ
June 15, 201213 yr first attempt: http://s14.postimage.org/boa85vwwh/banner.png http://i49.tinypic.com/atu7ma.png or this http://i49.tinypic.com/24mszlg.png Edited June 18, 201213 yr by Alex Banan
June 15, 201213 yr I made a couple of entries: http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww216/sdw4/SundayChartShowThreadBanner1.png http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww216/sdw4/UKChartChatBanner2.png I hope they look okay :D . This second one is my fav so far
June 16, 201213 yr This will be tough, can't we do a poll to decide? Did you read the first post? :) Hi Chart Chat fans, We've decided it's time for a refresh of the chart chat section so we're asking for your help on this one. These are the old banners for the chart forum http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/style_images/chartchat.png for the Sunday chart show thread http://i48.tinypic.com/sg72n6.jpg Size wise have to be the same as above. What we need Some designs from our creative members (I know you're out there) in respect of new banners for the below items: 1) The chart chat banner- the brown one has had it day and we would like something new and eye catching! 2) The Sunday chart show logo- same as above! The only stipulations are that they must contain (respectively) the words "Chart Chat" and "Sunday Chart Show" AND that no individual artist's faces are included in the banner (that's for the artist forums). What's the prize? The opportunity to have your design as our banner for the next year! Who Decides the winner? Chart mods and admin will make the ultimate decision as to which is best. You can make as many contributions as you wish and make an entry for both of the different banners we need! So come on Buzzjack show us what you can do!! :D Closing date will be Monday 2nd July 2012 at 6pm
June 16, 201213 yr my attempt, ha: http://i48.tinypic.com/2r5sqph.png This is my favourite of the Chart show ones. Very very slick. Just a shame there's nothing chart related in there. But it is easily the best! I made a couple of entries: http://i721.photobucket.com/albums/ww216/sdw4/UKChartChatBanner2.png I hope they look okay :D . I really like this Chart Chat one. I really like the music stave and colours you've used. Just not a huge fan of the font or the way the map has been placed. first attempt: http://i49.tinypic.com/6xyo28.png My other favourite chart chat one. Again, really slick and well put together. For me personally I don't like the font.
June 16, 201213 yr This second one is my fav so far I really like this Chart Chat one. I really like the music stave and colours you've used. Just not a huge fan of the font or the way the map has been placed. Thanks for the feedback. I also edited my first post to include the "UK Chart Chat" one without the Buzzjack logo.
June 16, 201213 yr Author Can I just say thanks to everyone who has submitted ideas so far- they are all appreciated by the mods team and we're very grateful that you've taken the time to help make this part of the forum look great! 2 weeks left, so if you're of an artist learning then please feel free to contribute/ continue to contribute ideas here (PM if you'd prefer) for your chance to design our banners for the next year! :D
June 17, 201213 yr Hi, I don't post on here much (and by that I mean I've never actually posted before), but I've been lurking for a couple of years. I mainly come on here when something I like gets released, just to see how it's doing on iTunes or in the midweeks etc. Anyway I figured since I don't contribute much to posts, I'd contribute in this way instead. I didn't have heaps of time to spend on them though so I used the same template for both. :mellow: Okay that was a lie, I did have time, I just didn't wanna make another one. :D http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t319/kimbaforeva/ChartChat.png http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t319/kimbaforeva/ChartShow1-1.png Thankyou to all the people who take the time to post chart info on this forum btw, it's very much appreciated! Jon

Jon I think we may have a winner already. :D
June 18, 201213 yr I love that last set, too. (Preferably the one without the UK Isles on it - but it's not that bad even with it!) But some brilliant designs overall!
