Thanks to a generous donation by hypermonkey, who gave me a layout without asking for any payment, I now have a really cool layout, but I still have the thousand Viz prize sitting uselessly on my profile, so the contest is not only still on, but the prize has been raised to 1500 Viz to tempt those who still haven't entered a submission yet.

I'm looking for a custom layout that looks sweet as hell! I ask for anyone out there good with layouts to create a sweet custom layout with only the following specifics:

1. Must be able to stretch to insert a custom signature I already have made.
2. Must include Oni Link in some kind of action pose to compliment the one in the signature.
3. Must include Oni Link's weaved sword BY ITSELF in the background in some way.

These specifics give barely any detail whatsoever as to the actual thing. That's because the actual design and look of the layout is YOUR CHOICE! If you create one and want to get your viz, make sure your layout is submitted WITH THE POST TO THIS THREAD. I don't want any PM's about this. You might have to replace the post's layout with your submission, though. I'm only going to look at the first ten submissions (or 5, or whenever this thread goes down the drain Lol), and make my choice out of those, so this isnt just a competition. This is a race! Only one contestant will win, and earn 1000 of my Viz...

Start creating! Lol.

Edit: Bonus 100 Viz to those who can also insert a picture of the Fierce Deity Mask as well...

would you like a a layout with a scroll bar like the ones I make? If so, I'll make your oni link layout!

Well if chrono can code it right I'll send him the picture I'll make for you and we split it 500 a piece. Just PM us both and let us know if that's alright, and make sure it's alright with him...

Sure, I'm fine with that JusTReaL! I just like helping friendly friends!

Thats not what I meant at all!!! Preview the layout here! If I like it, I'll give the person who shows the preview in this thread 1000 Viz. No deals. Thats not fair to anybody else who makes one! If you yourself make one and show it to me in this thread, you get 1000. I'm not splitting the money between two players. Thats a waste of a contest! If one person codes it but another person is the one who previews it in this thread, then the one who previews it gets the 1000!

Note: POSSIBLY willing to negotiate, but I thought I made the rules clear. "Only ONE will win..." Apparently that wasn't clear...

And Crono: if I wanted a layout with a scroll bar I'd use the one I have. That's why the VERY FIRST RULE was: the layout MUST BE ABLE TO STRETCH.

Okay, okay, I get it, I'll post a preview when I'm done in here...Sorry I didn't realize you were making this into a contest, just thought it was a cry for help, lol. *The Wolf Link cries*

Here is what I have, I hope it's what you're looking for. However, if it is, you can keep the viz, I'm just happy to help.























La-lala-lala, testing, testing...




OK, I hope this is alright.
Sorry, this is the best I can do. I can't figure out how to get the second picture into it.

To all contestants: The rules have been edited. That's as specific as they're gonna get. If you don't know something by now, there's a good chance that I don't want you to know it. Lol. Bonus added as well.

To hypermonkey: Layout ok, but second rule ignored. "Must include Oni Link in action pose."

To JusTReaL: If you want, you could just take the signature I have that you made, modify it to fit the contest rules, and resubmit it into the contest as an entry.

To Crono: Can't wait to see if you'll submit something, but please try to avoid scroll bars...

To all contestants: I realize it sounds like I'm being picky as hell, but it shouldn't be that difficult. A big layout with a couple pics in it? (plus bonus possibly) It doesn't sound difficult. And your getting 1000 Viz for it!

I think I actually did it! I don't really know what I did, but I think this is what you're looking for, right?












Without the scrool bars, right? I even checked it in Internet Explorer, FireFox, and Google Chrome to circumnavigate any of the transparency issues that happened with my layout.

Thank you, hypermonkey, for your help and generosity in your layout donation. The layout's truly awesome.

However, my thousand Viz prize isn't gonna spend itself, and now I'm adding 500 to the mix, so the new contest prize is a total of 1500 (1600 with bonus) viz! The contest will continue for anyone who wants this humongous Viz prize!

Whats the size of your layout picture so I can create one that size. I'm in a creative mood tonight and want to do something with it. Let me know as soon as you see this okay and I'll see if I can whip something up for you.

OMG my layout is sweet now!!! JusTReaL came through and whipped this up, and the contest prize money has been given to him as such. Contest over people!!! (I only had like three contestants anyway...) Lol.

I'll host another contest at another time, but for now, I'm just gonna admire the one I got. Lmao

Contest officially over! Victory to JusTReaL!

Actually I have to also give credit to hypermonkey as well for his layout that I had before. It was cool as well, and I still saved his code for when I may need it.

So here's thanks to both hypermonkey and JusTReaL!

You can close this thread now or something, unless more contestants want to enter. But I doubt any will...
