    Billboard Contest Time!!!!

    AO Artists,

    Once again its time to come up with a killer billboard for Am Open!! Remember last year...

    We need a fresh one to wow them at the tournament. We would like it to include Clare with a catchy tag line. Winner gets an RTpro, 1st and 2nd runners up get Warps!!!

    Winner will be judged by AGD internal staff. Employees or inner sanctum people not elligible but they can still submit ideas. If AGD people win, the prize will be given to the first runner up. All submissions the property of AGD. We reserve the right to change the rules at any time for any reason.

    We have to have the billboard finished and submitted before the end of the month so this contest is only going to run about a week and a half.

    Lay 'em on us!!

    AGD

    I thought getting an RT Pro out of the deal would wake you from your doldrums..

    "AGD / Back in Black" Picture of Clair in full uniform holding a totally black X-Mag. Background should be something fairly simple… maybe even solid black… or a black background with 3d faded gray hexes?

    The reference should appeal to a wide range of ages, for either the AC/DC reference or even Men in Black.

    (Just off the top of my head…. More may be coming.)

    perhaps have the agd products running down the back like your membership cards(el matrixo) with 1/3 picture of clare off to the rigthside with(1/3 up her body) with her in a tuff girl pose wereing a mask(?) with a wink, off to teh left youll have the automag hexes sunkin in but not invisible with and xmag /flatlin/warp combo, perhaps some ule stuff with teh phrase "Guess whos back?"

    and on teh bottom have it say" because quaility won go out of style"

    Entries should be 800 wide by 360 tall in pixels. Here is last years for your perusal. A plain background is best and rough ideas are ok.

    Test

    I liked the idea Dansim had with The Matrix feel so I just kinda borrowed off of that. What do you think?

    I really like the matrix style of billboard, but AGD needs to be careful and make sure it's not putting itself in an actionable position. That being said. If you're going to play off the matrix movies I think you might want to bring some inference of things not being what they seem or illusions and such.

    Maybe a tagline like, "Not what you THINK you know.....join us - AGD" Matrix background, Clare in white trenchcoat, dark shades, nice smile and a pewter or chrome xmag.

    how about the same idea with the tag line..

    "take the blue pill" forgive me if is the red pil i just cant rember right now.

    the point being the pill that shows you the TRUTH.


    from the judge in the WDP v Sp case.... " i find it significant that aside from a somewhat limited notebook produced by gaston, the four named inventors offer NO documentation of there work or there contributions to the conception or reduction to practice of the claimed invention"

    Ahh nice idea datapimp! I'll fix that up and post it tommorow and continue working on some new ideas and tweaking this one some more.

    Edit.. I'm pretty sure now that you take the red pill to find out the truth.

    Put in big, bold letters "CARPE MAGIEM!"
    Then a pic of Xmags set up like the ULE pic in the store.
    Or a simple Xmag setup, full, like tank and all, under put

    Needs better text above the logo, sharper image, perhaps Clare with arm outstretched so you can see the mag and have the blue/blakc fade show through the holes in Clare's pic.

    Tagline reads ...."Red or blue....choose wisely......." Something like that!
