Sig of the Week

[paran]

I know this might sound stupid or might have already been asked but I've been wondering for quite some time, why YC hasn't had any Sig of the Week contests or any other graphics contests?
They're on practically on every forum and it's quite fun. I'd just like to ask some of the graphics mods or just mods if they'd like to host a sig of the week contest on the YC forums.

By the Way:
Sig of the Week is a contest that's held every week, hence the name, and contestants enter their signature. A poll is created and users vote for their favourite signature and the winner gets a prize (maybe a banner or something).

Thanks a lot and I hope you accept my idea :D

yes i love it, we played that on a graphics forum i used to visit frequently..
i'm all for it

also, just to add.. you don't have to change your actual forum signarure... you just submit one with your name on it... into the thread and everyone votes for which one they think is the best

[paran]

yea, the definition of a forum signature is pretty vague so you can play around with it, the different sizes, text, etc.
Thanks for agreeing, I just hope that a couple mods will take up the challenge.

I think YC could do well with a SotW competition. It encourages posting from more people who aren't that into coding but love graphics! :p

[paran]

thanks to whoever for moving this thread (suspecting electrohead) to the correct place. I really didn't know where to put it so I just put it in the graphics section. So, has any mod agreed to volunteer and start it because I'm pretty eager to start :)

I moved it, and you posted it in the correct forum at the time. The contest section didn't exist then!

The active supporters and moderators are discussing it right now. It fits along nicely with our current plans, as we hope to launch some more compettions starting June 1st.

Don't hold me to it, but im pretty sure we had stuff like this a long time ago. And I enjoyed it. :p Also, it worked out well. I think I still have some of my psd's from some of them. I'd like to see it come back.

Currently, we are not doing too many competitions because our YC points are not working and neither is uShop. So, there goes most of the incentives. But, both should be coming shortly.

Then, it will be eaiser to hold competitions and give prizes.



And your question, yes, we're talking :D

Yeah it would be really great if you can open this contest .

[paran]

thanks for taking my suggestion into consideration, and i hope you accept :D
// thanks Mau for creating a section and placing it in the proper place.
