Contest 2 - Fan Art! - Winners Announced!
We've announced our winners!
Continuing with our giveaway filled Tenth Anniversary special, we present to you our second contest!
This time around will take a little more than filling out a form. For this, we present a fan art challenge. The task? Redesign the Knight Industries Logo. Use whatever you want, the new font, the old, or something completely different.
Entires must be posted in this thread, and recieved by 11pm EST on April 30th.
Prizes? Of course, this is a special fan art contest, so we do have some goodies!
Grand Prize - 1 Copy of the Season 2 DVD
First Runner up - 1 $10 Gift Certificate to 80stees.com
The selection of the winners has yet to be finalized. It will either be by private ballot, or by selection by the moderating staff. Will let you know at least one week before.
Good luck and happy entering!

C_Matt: Yes, we'll accept multiple enteries but lets keep it to like your top 5 ideas.
Knightuser: The three week term should be a good amount. It may be a bit unfair to change the date because there may be people already working on something, and we don't want people to have more time than others. If the turn out is low, then maybe we will extend it, but again. not sure if that is fair.
Thanks Lyn!

I seem to be setting a trend for myself by entering these contests with things that are sort of within the guidelines.
The idea for this entry is that it is what Knight Industries opted for their promotional look to be. In 21st century America, when no one played chess anymore, everyone was confused by the "little horse thing" as their logo. By this point, having made a name for themselves with thier amazing car, they recruited people with an image that most everyone would know, KITT.
Knight Industries Wants You!
And yes, this was taken during a crazy run in the dorm as we were entering the http://www.touchingisgood.com/ (Nintendo DS) contest. Creepy, eh?

o.O Very frightening. KITT's being pushed by a disenbodied hand! AHHHH!
Anyways, here's my entry in glorious black and white. You'll have to click here since for some reason I can't get it to show up in my post. :/ And yes, it was done in MS paint.
Grrr. Anyone have any idea why this ain't working?
EDIT: Finally got my entry up. Keep scrolln' down.

Okay, here's my entry. Sorry if it's huge. I Ffinally figured out why it wouldn't post--apparently the message board doesn't display .bmp files (aka: MS Paint). Took me a little while to figure out. Like I said, it's in glorious black-and-white, partially because I like it in B&W, and also because I don't have a fancy program like, say, Photoshop to color it in with.

And here it comes...
Done in a hurry because there was some other work that kept me busy (hopefully you'll see that also soon). I'm quite happy with it. I hope someone else likes it too.
And (don't take the following too seriously ) here is actually where my inspiration came from. Sorry for the bad picture quality, I was in a little hurry to leave the Knight Mansion before Glen came upstairs Unfortunately I didn't get pictures of the other pages...
Hopefully someone got it

Here's my almost late entry. I had this idea of a robotic knight with KITT's eyes or something. Kinda a cross between Knight Rider, the Black Knight Monster from Scooby Doo, and Battlestar Galactica. Of course I did want a futuristic theme, yet simple.
I created this image entirely by hand (mouse and graphics tablet) in Paint Shop Pro 8.1. I used simple lines, air brush tool set at a soft circle for the eyes, and gradients and drop shadowing for depth. I did not use any special filters or plug-ins except the balls and bubbles feature in PSP 8 to make the head portion more 3D.
Enjoy!
