My pathetic attempt is attached.
Kinda rushed it, 'coz I'm really busy.

And the last one. Got to go NOW! My wife IS KILLING ME!![]()

I submit yet another proposal. This time I've cleaned up the "picture", and put in place a catchy slogan. I've rebuilt the entire scene. Made some new 3D elements: a user, a globe, a link. The environment is no longer an anonymous place, it's on a tar covered street facing a brick wall.
The tiles making up Sitepoint's logo are laid as coloured cement pavement. The raised m gave me the opportunity to slip in Sitepoint's web address.
I suppose that if you can't find anything to do on the forum, you can at least bang the globe against the wall.
The colours used in Sitepoint's logo are a bit bright and crude, so I really can't decide about lights and colours, as it looks very different on my laptop screen, on my home desktop or on my work station. Today's LCD monitors really mess up with me.![]()

Seeing that nobody is yet shouting: "Leave it alone already !", I've tweaked a bit the last one.
I didn't like the "feeling" in that one, so I tried to give the scene a cosy dim look of a peaceful play room, awaiting it's little guests. Also I tried to give the elements a toy like look.



Feel free to post as many as you like.![]()

Yes, I'm back with more tinkering.![]()
I've "raised" SP's logo (it looks easy to spot and recognize now), added some light to the globe, changed positioning a little bit.

Thank god this contest will be over thursday !!!
This one I think sums it up. I'm posting a bigger version along with a small one, fitted in page.

Yes, I can't help my self! I've draged you all in this graphic monolog of mine. Lucky for you, tomorow is all done.
Now, one weakness of the previous proposition was the positioning of the slogan. So I've changed that.
Also, I've made a sketchy version too, I thought it looks interesting. Each version comes with a big picture and a in-place picture.

Forgot to light the globe.![]()



Well people, it's Thursday the 24th here in NZ so it's decision time - and I've made one.
First I want to thank you all for your entries - there is some great stuff. I feel terribly guilty for the stress this competition has put on the marriage of ulysesand I hope his wife forgives him soon.
But the winner is roberts126 with this entry![]()
I like the idea that the forums get us thinking and this entry says that to me.
So PM me with your name for attribution and your backlink details roberts126 and watch for tomorrows blog post.
Thank you, I'm glad I could contribute something to a great resource like SitePoint.

Congrats roberts126.
I'm sorry Hawk if I've monopolized this post a little bit, but any contest makes me ichy in my fingers.
Also, my wife is happy to put this stress test behind.
And finally, happy I am as I've learned a few new tricks. Thank you Hawk for an opportunity to learn.![]()



No probs Ulyses - the monopolisation was completely appropriate in this case.
I quite like the sketch effect that you did.





HAWK - Excellent choice that is the one I had originally liked as wellCongrats Robert
