Here are the possible banners you can create:

Formats: 728x90, 468x60, 120x600, 160x600, 300x250, 125x125.
File Types: GIF, JPG, PNG, SWF. Size limit is 60,000 bytes, except for 125x125 limited to 40,000 bytes.
Restrictions: No extreme animation / strong flashing / visual irritation. No vulgarity / nudity / graphic violence.
Flash Banners: Must contain clickTAG opening in new window, no direct URLs. clickTAG info.
Flash CPU Usage: Must not exceed 10% average per banner on a 2ghz dual core test machine.

For each format, the top two banners will be selected as winners
.
The prize will be $20 in affiliate credit for each banner selected.
You can create more banners in different sizes and win in more categories 1

Criteria to determine winners:
- interesting visual and eye catching texts in the banner frames.
- banner should contain the www.spaceo.net in one or more of the frames
- story, does it stick in the memory?

It's nice, but if you can use a brighter color for the www.spaceo.net link, maybe some light red.
Oh, and a message on the banner would be nice 1

click on that and you will see " Attach:          (more attachments)

search for the file / pic you want to upload by pressing browse

then save

Very nice 1 Looking forward to the next ones.

Oh I just remembered, you are free to use any screen shots from the game if you like. Like you could merge all sorts of frames with different screens from the game, add some interesting text and make a nice banner.

This is the banner we usually use for example:


Thank you.
