I love it. At first I didn't think that I had enough guidelines, but it turned out great. Thanks, sorry I couldn't see it earlier.

Hello Athena!

I would ask you if you make for me a signature!

The signature should be in contact with my Name. Probably with Julian Glover with the ATAC and Roger Moore in the typical Postion from FYEO, when he hunts Locque.
That would be nice!

Kristatos, just so you know Athena may not be able to put the Roger Moore pose in there because it is an MGM image and not allowed on this site.

Sorry for the delay you all... I think I have 5 sigs on my plate right now - I will get them done as soon as I find a moment this week (I'm hoping). Thanks for your patience :)

Also, those of you who

I started thinking... I think it would be fare to throw out there that one would need to have 500 posts under their belt before I can make a banner for them (is this fare or just compleatly off line? let me know). (I'll of course still do the ones I have lined currently) ... I'm thinking Thursday evening will work for me unless something unexpected comes up.

Agent76: red/fire background, gun and martini, Dalton, "the name is Bond...James Bond"
Kristatos: Julian Glover, ATAC, Roger Moore FYEOish
Wade: Joe Don Baker, CIA type
Adrian Carlisle: Dalton, PPK firing, dark blue background, 007, "Nobody does it better"

If something above is wrong, or if I've missed someone, let me know and I'll check my "records" :)

How do you make these wonderful banners?

Most people have graphic art programs, a good one I'm told is Photoshop.

Let me tell you, that there are quite a few art graphic whizzes on CBn! :)

I have a bunch of good art programs one of them being Photoshop (most popular) as mentioned above by Qwerty. I have a few others too. They're not too hard to figure out if you're a comp wiz and/or if you studied graphic arts. I just use images from the novels and different pics of the actors etc. And for some I create backgrounds for them. The way and style the banner turns out just depends on a few things... [1] what the person requesting the banner wants and also... [2] my mood :)

Wow, Athena, this is great! Thanks!

For a minute I thought the picture of Dalton was animated, but then I saw that the resolution was lowered to make it look like that. Nice effect. Where does the Dalton pic come from, by the way?

The pic of Dalton is actally THIS screenshot which is from Looney Toons Back In Action. It's the only pic I could think of with Dalton holding a gun that's not MGM copywrited. If you want to check out other Dalton posters from the Looney Toons movie check out THIS thread. :)

Athena, all of your sig banners are great. Sorry I just now notice, I don't have as much time as I would like to read on CBn, so I get in on these threads so late sometimes. They are very creative. Great job!

Hi, Athena. I been thinking it over for some time. My banner should have a FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE theme (it's my fav Bond film). The color of the background should be burghini red like my aviator picture of Red Grant. Basically I just want the text red and white. My name SPECTRE ASSASSIN should be in the middle of the banner. The color for my name should be white and be in Rockwell Extra Bold tex format. And from left of the banner I want a logo of SPECTRE'S symbol. You know the one worned by Fiona and Largo from THUNDERBALL? Then on the right of the banner I want a just a picture of Red Grant. Both the SPECTRE symbol and pic of Grant should be white just like my name. And the final finish in my banner, I want to use a quote in small lettering below my name SPECTRE ASSASSIN. The quote is "MY ORDERS ARE TO KILL YOU MR. BOND, HOW I DO IT IS MY BUSSINESS." That's it.

I been worrying myself to death with this question: Is it too hard, Athena007? I know how good you are, and I have been worrying if this is too complex. If you accept my personalized banner, I'll be in your debt. I thank you for your help. Bye.

Athena.... If you have the time and wouldn't mind, that would be cool. I understand you're busy like the rest of us. I'd do it, if I had the nice tools to do it with on my computer, but I don't. :) If you have time, just let me know what you need from me.

Thanks,
Travis

Well, Travis... all I would need would be some ideas about what you would like on your banner... you can be as specific or as vague as you want. Colors, quotes, actors, objects... :)


SPECTRE_ASSASSIN... you're on my list :)

Ok, well.... Roger Moore is my favorite actor, TSWLM for my movie.... I love Martinis, the PPK..... The Lotus Esprit.... I'm not too picky, so I'm sure what you come up with will be great. It's limited space anyway, so I don't want to throw too many things out there. Thanks a million! :)

Ooo, deal me in. If you have the time (and you certainly have the talent) would you be so kind as to make a signature for me, Athena? No rush for it of course, but it would be greatly appreciated.

Would I be out of line if I said that you, Miss Athena...rocked?

Because you totally DO ROCK! :)

Anywho, for my banner? I'm not sure what's copyright and what's not, but, I would think a pic of Zorin (or just a cool one of Walken), the Golden Gate Bridge, perhaps the blimp....

Colors? Er...blue and yellow maybe? Or orangey? Maybe a goldish and silver look? I'm really not good with color schemes...whatever you feel works best.

Quote: "This'll hurt him more than me."

And anything else you can think of to make it extra special.

And once more...you ROCK. :)
