Bill Board Competition - Size Unclear?

After reading through this Competition on habbo UK, I thought to myself. "Those banners aren't the size they specify"

So, I went on paint, and checked out if they were correct. To my suprise they weren't.

The one in the middle is the one they provided, and I guess a example to what size it should be. The border on the outside is the size they specified earlier on the in thread.

Which one is it? :S

Common sense would tell you that the banner size is the size in the Gallery.

Also - this didn't need another thread :rolleyes:

lew!

Btw is there a theme for this or can it be anything
22-02-2007, 06:31 PM
kk.

RaveFM it can be anything you want but it must not contain words or real life pictures, also, dont use white, use just an off white as plain white will turn out transparent

Plus rep to whoever can make a bill board frame!! cus i cant make one lol

lew!

Im still unsure of the size.

I've made one out of the template on the habbo site but it doesnt fit into the one RICHe posted. The bottom is too big

If it goes weird on paint then this is the way to do it:
- open paint
- Go to image
- Attributes
- Then change width to 200 and height to 180
- Then open another paint
- go to image then attributes
- Change width to 1 and height to 80
- Then draw a line so it is 80 in height
- then CTRL + A and then copy the line
- Paste the line twice into original document
- Move the line so one is in top left corner and oe in bottom right
- Connect the corners up
Hope that helped

Hi.

I agree the sizes are a little difficult to understand, they've used the wrong guidelines for the room, I think.

For the type of billboard in the screenshot your canvas should be 160x140 pixels. You can use the template below if you like - fill in the green area with your design and keep the white area as it is.

But that's too big, it doesn't fit the billboard area in screen shot.
22-02-2007, 09:35 PM
