Just to try
and keep the challenge archive readable, here is an ebay-style templayte that will fit on the page.



Or if you prefer, here is a 134KB photoshop file.

You don't have to use it, but it's better than posting a huge 800*600 image.

(hint - for those that don't know, it will be a much smaller and clearer file if you save it as a gif, rather than jpeg)

Enjoy

EDIT: Remember - you don't have to make you post look like an Ebay page... you can use your imagination too if you like.

GIF
GIF images dont store enough colour infomation JPEG's are better. If you want to be posh you can do vector images, I like them.

PNG.
Use PNG you fucking bastards! Er, I mean... PNG is quite good, you know. It's unencumbered by patent restrictions too.

good man, hope people use it
(or .png - I mean, are there really any web-browsers out there that don't know how to deal with .png files now? other than IE's well-known "alpha channel? what alpha channel?" borkedness.)

so you're not expecting
many of these to go on the front page, then?

Have
you read the challenge?

Yay, the cunt's back.

( Laughing Boy, Fri 16 Jul 2004, 13:24, archived)

I know
but seriously, anyone going to come up with a idea worthy of an FP?
( Rev. A-MOL, Fri 16 Jul 2004, 13:28, archived)

It's more
about the sake of the challenge archive page than the front page.

Folk can shrink it down to 280 pixels if they like.
