Here's my first design. It's not exactly to spec but I can easily throw in the details etc. Its really rough, the outlines of the mouths are very crude and the highlights too. Missed a letter out of my sweary too!

You're 2 copyright concerns will be the font and the tower images. I could use your images, but it would have just taken me longer to clean the photos up to a level I was happy to mock with.

That is brilliant!! I wish I had some art skills

Nope I agree with designing characters from scratch, that is time consuming, though most professionals will already have their own characters designed. But knocking up such a landing page, say excluding characters or something else can be done quite quick. I've just spoken to a guy who does this and he said he could do it very easily within a couple of hours, but he does already have his own characters.

Have him enter then if it's that easy. I'd very much like to see his effort.

Do you really think all it takes to be a designer is "learn how to use photoshop"? ;/

FabienO · 30 Jul 2010 at 14:28

Yeah, I can use photoshop but I have the artistic talent of a pack of wet blind hedghogs.... in a bag.

Very nice Gord

Lol john you lairy sob, leave them alone

My effort for now, I have just realised that the "titan" series includes many other models so I might have to change the text at the top:

grudas · 30 Jul 2010 at 15:17

so text is very hard to read.. :]

Stewy · 30 Jul 2010 at 15:22

Apart from the 'Introduces the titan series' being really hard to read, that is awesome sp00n

CliffyBiro · 30 Jul 2010 at 15:23

I hate glow effects. Makes everything look incredibly tacky.

Sp00n · 30 Jul 2010 at 15:24

Aye, couldnt be bothered to cut the computers out properly so just glowed them up a treat.

/edit changed glow to black to try and tidy them up, need some decent stock photo's tbh.

CliffyBiro · 30 Jul 2010 at 15:29

Looks much better already.

Cosimo · 30 Jul 2010 at 15:29

Thats looling good.

CliffyBiro · 30 Jul 2010 at 15:33

Couple more changes would be to bring the red text on the button above the lighting layer to make it more readable, change the 'Introduces...' text, and I'd reduce the size of the Nvidia etc badges.

Some people think so.

Sp00n · 30 Jul 2010 at 15:53

Changed again.

CliffyBiro · 30 Jul 2010 at 15:59

Nice one.

Gibbo, is there any chance of getting a couple of high res images of both systems?

CliffyBiro · 30 Jul 2010 at 17:08

EDIT: Will repost with improvements tomorrow. I'm in a terrible mood today.

Marky · 30 Jul 2010 at 17:10

Sp00n is definitely my favourite one at the moment!

Stewy · 30 Jul 2010 at 17:11

@Skipdiddyskip: Top two corners feel a bit empty, not sure what you can do about it, just chucking it in there
