For this edition, we are having a contest. Basically, your job is to design a cover for Adventure Maker edition 12. Your entrants are due May 2nd. Then the winner will be the cover on the 12th edition and will be interviewed. Post your entries here.
__________________________________________________
Thank you for the great entries. It was very tough picking a winner. I had two friends of mine look at them and they agreed with the same exact order I had. The winner will be sent questions later today + I'm throwing in a cool avatar for the 2nd place that also will be sent later today.
EDIT: It was out of 50 points, so I then divided the score by 10.

1st. Saturn 4.4/5
Looks very proffesional (sp)!!! :D
2nd. Reneuend 4.0/5
Great cover, loved the traditional BbB style, only wish the background was a little more exciting (just orange).
3. Candle 3.5/5
It wasn't really a cover, which lost some points, but the neatness was impeccable and I loved the text.
4. Lyberodoggy 3.35/5
I loved the rubic's cube and the AM logo in the corner, just the text was just a tad boring and the blue background could have been perfected.
5. Toadfrogs 2.9/5
Your cover was good, with the orange background, and the AM logo, but you lost lots of neatness points with the two gears in the center. Also, I think all three of us thought there should be something in the bottom half of the cover.

I see lots of entries and wonderful ones.
I 'm gonna try to make something (but I first need to install some tools. I don't have Sketchup, anim8or and the gimp since I formatted my disk)

I am sorry toadfrogs, my friends really did most of the judging, your cover was still great. Anyways, I think I'm going to use all the covers in upcoming issues.

Congrats Saturn!..and to all other contestants--Great entries..!..If I had to pick a favourite myself..it would have been difficult, being as each one had it's own purpose..whether it was professional or fun looking..elegant..simple--they were all really well done..:D

I liked Candle's for the text as well--also the colors--were different....and adding the little squirrel was cute..:lol:..Reneuend's was pro looking..Doggie's was fun ..Toad Frog's was good too...I would have had a hard time picking as well.!..After I seen Saturn's I thought of drawing sort of the same thing, but with a typewriter smoking.....Once i got that image in my head, i had a hard time picturing another...:lol:..

Each picture could be used as an entry for an article--they write or covers like Chickens said..that's a great idea..:D

Congrats All..!

Peace

Its ok, I'm not sad anyway. If you will use all the entries for some issues, then it will be great.

I was entering in this challenge to test my graphics skill.
