You're right Elo, people love having players on the banner. I for one, did not see that one coming.

I would have thought it would cause arguments as to who is on there and who isn't, and also be a pain to keep having to rotate out players on a regular basis based on what people are looking for.

Looks like I was wrong. Once again, great job on the banner.

i voted for IPW's, but mainly because he designed while lifting 100 pounds over his head.
that couldn't have been easy


and I like the clean look.



the US/Canada flags in the NHL logo is the coolest thing of either though.

Yours is awesome, IPW. I really mean that. Maybe we can tweek/improve the player one down the road if it wins. Just as a question, how did you get the sheen on the top halfs of the logos (where it looks like they are kinda behind glass or something)?

I just got Adobe CC a couple months ago and I'm getting pretty skilled with Premiere Pro and Lightroom, but I still have a lot to learn about Photoshop. I used it years ago, but it's not like riding a bike except the structure/layers is the same as I remember.

To be fair, I stole the idea from Elo. :nod:

Beats me, it was like that when I stole them online. I wanted smaller logos, and came across those on Google.

But if I had to take a guess, I would assume you have to select the top half of each one and turn down the opacity a little bit?

You're rocking better programs than I am right now. I'm jelly.

Adobe CC is great. I would highly recommend it to anyone. You can get it just for a month or two and then cancel if you wanted to create a bunch of stuff but not get stuck with the monthly fee every month. You can also get just Photoshop and Lightroom for $10/month right now. Not a bad deal since both are fantastic.

I really want Adobe AE, but there is no way I'm spending that much money on just a hobby.

That's the one I haven't dove into at all yet. It's very complicated. Feel like I need to learn the others first.

Though yeah, it seems to be the special effects tool of choice.

I voted for the other but liked both.

It was like voting, you pick your poison except in this case both were well-created.

If you want constructive criticism, the icons for the conferences felt like filler to me.

Trust him on this one guys. If anybody knows "filler" it's a Leafs fan.

The player banner but it's missing the greatest goalie of all time

It's an NHL banner, so Tretiak would not be included.

He could have at least put Sawchuk, Plante or Dryden on there, dangit.

I had Plante on there, but it was crowded and I was going to wait and do a goalies theme on the left side in a few months if it wins. Though it's looking like you may never get to see it. ;)

So remove Mario "Deep Fried Butter Tarts" Lemieux and put Plante back.

It's a dead heat right now, a hanging chad from a Panthers fan could decide matters...

I'm not sure if my vote was counted. I'm not allowed to vote on the site because of my restrictions so I tried posting my vote for the team logos banner. But someone would have to add it or count it
