The Avengers International Fan Forum

Allard

Life is full of difficult choices, like which banner is to be our Christmas Banner this year, because you have really outdone yourself this year. Not only more entries then ever before, but also of outstanding quality. Thanks, it's already a success. So please all of you vote and decide which is the marginally better banner.

When the poll closes after seven days, the designer of each banner will be named, credits where credits due. If one of the designers reveals which banner he or she made before this poll has closed, it will result in a disqualification of their entry, regardless of the number of votes it has received.

In case of a tie in the voting the Ministry will decide on a solution. But the more of you vote the less chance there is of a tie, and yes you may take that as a hint. Posting is allowed in this forum but please do not speculate on who made a banner, and most important: If you can't say something nice say nothing at all.

So the choice is up to you and it's not easy they are all nice:
Have a good look at all thirteen before you cast your vote.

This poll will close at 14:00 CET on December the 19th, make sure you vote in time! The winning banner will be displayed from the 21st until around the 4th of January.

As in each previous year the order of the banners is determined by the drawing of lots, so completely random to be as fair as possible.

Wow, this is gonna be difficult. I'll have to carefully consider each. Sooo many great designs.

I'm torn between three at the moment. I'll have to defer until I've made up my mind.

Congratulations all. Cool

Wow, so many great designs. It's difficult to decide which one is the best Shocked

Oh, man, these are all absolutely gorgeous! Very Happy

We have a talented bunch of forumites. Congratulations to everyone on such wonderful work!

There are so many good ones, it's a really tough choice. I agonised for awhile before I made my choice, but I easily could have gone for any of them. Thanks to everyone who put the effort in. Smile

As wonderful as they all are there was one that stood out immediately. I looked again but didn't change my mind.

Some lovely designs, but as has been said, one stands out for me, although there are definitely other contenders.

Lots and lots of fantastic ideas. Number 6 looks great to me, I love it when Ian Hendry gets included.

There's one other that appeals slightly more to me. But I'm not going to vote just yet. I need a long think!

Edit: there are three that I really can't decide between now. Arrgh!

Looked up and down all the great banners and finally voted for one that just caught my eye the most!

Every year, you guys make it so difficult to choose just one banner. This year, you have made it almost impossible! Therefore, you all will be getting coal in your stockings. Evil or Very Mad

Nice idea, but that's cheating! Wink

Because there are so many entries this year and there is (so far) only one point separating a couple of them, there is potential for a tie. Will there be a "banner-off"?

I like three of them very much, one of them number 2. But I need some help here:I can't read the grey or blue text in the banner 2. It's the text above the red text and under the black one. First word could be Avenger(s)...?

Rhonda · Posted: Sat Dec 15, 2012 7:33 am Post subject:

Thanks for pointing that out about banner 2. AVENGERSAVENGERS maybe.

I can't decide yet, I'm really torn between 6 and 11 (honourable mentioning for 5).

Frankymole · Posted: Sat Dec 15, 2012 1:19 pm Post subject:

On reflection. A dead heat between 6, 10 and 11 for me, although I do love ones with movement/animation... I shall roll a die later (I don't have any 3-sided coins to toss!)!

There aren't any I don't think are brilliantly done, though cute little Avengers, Ian Hendry and a convival group, and Purdey's legs are hard to beat.

Pleased someone's voted for 12. That was my second choice - has real early 60s vibe to it. Good in fact to see the votes spreading out across the gamut of the designs...
