They are all off the official websites of the games the characters are from. I didnt use images from google images, etc.

True. Mind the copyrights. Though if you use multiple characters from different games and different owners, the problem may be less. If you use logos from companies, then that's a no-no.

Either way using trademarked images is a no no and esp when money is being crossed Be it on one's own head though.

considering alot of fansites use these images and the gaming websites wouldnt display these images in their galleries if they didnt want them used, i dont see the harm in using them.

Yes, there's no harm, and after all, it's the Xentax Foundation that could be held responsible in terms of copyrights, not the artists. We'll deal with that IF the situation requires.

Considering the nice entries up to now, I have a remark that concerns the text in some of the banners. It would be nice if the presentation of the text is somehow unique as well, have a special, perhaps even gamesy, feel. Try to avoid just "typing it in Times New Roman" or other font. Am I making sense.. ?!

This is really great stuff, people! It's awesome to see so many different styles, like in the new entries the reoriented characters of the main text in Snodigators's entry and the glass ball in Mikeaa's.

@Woosh: that text looks f*cking cool !

After internal discussion, a final comment concerning copyrights, if you can avoid dominant use of copyrighted figures/logos, that will be preferable. Such entries will however participate in the contest. There are many ways to give the header a Game, Gaming or Game research theme.

Nice one Reyres, I like the schematic background and the checklist especially. The textstyle for 'XeNTaX' and buttons may be just a tad too common, but overall the idea's great.

No. We will try to match the theme with the chosen header. One idea is to let the winner have a go at tuning it to the header theme.
