Signature of the Month "Silent Hill" Contest - March 2012

March’s “Silent Hill” Signature Contest

Our "Signature of the Month" Contest is a monthly event that all members of the PlayStation Community Forums are eligible to participate in. Carefully read the instructions and follow the rules.

This month’s theme: Silent Hill. This year March is the month of Silent Hill with Silent Hill: Downpour releasing on March 13th, the Silent Hill HD Collection releasing on March 20th, and Silent Hill: Book of Memories releasing on March 27th (these are North American release dates at the moment). Flex your creative muscles this month and see what you can come up with in the Silent Hill department. You are encouraged to create signatures for the Silent Hill video games that will be released this month but all Silent Hill signatures will be accepted provided that they are appropriate and adhere to the rules.

Entries this month will be due on March 30th at 11:59 PM PST. Users are allowed one entry. A poll with the entries will be posted provided that there is more than one entry for this contest and voting will take place for approximately one week after the due date for all of the submissions this month.

The poll for March's "Silent Hill" Signature Contest is now closed. Thank you for your participation.

Re: Signature of the Month Contest - March 2012

This sounds like fun.I know how to make gifs but this would be my first sig contest so I have questions.

"Create signatures for the Silent Hill video games"-does this mean the final version will look something like your sig?

I'm not sure how to submit an entry.Do I just make the Silent Hill gif my sig then post here saying "This is my final version?"

Thanks.

ty but I did not make that gif so I'm not exactly sure.I believe that effect was made by layering and looping frames.I'm still learning Animation Shop in PSP5.

Well, I was sporting an Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception signature when you posted that message.

I may or may not be sporting a Silent Hill 2 signature the next time that you see a post of mine (it’s an older signature and I will not be entering it in this contest). Your signature should, ideally, be a still image (JPEG, BMP, PNG, etc.) with dimensions no greater than 500px wide by 150px high (I added this last bit to the rules recently just to make things more clear). There are no rules against GIF files at this time although I’m not entirely sure that it is fair to include still images and GIF files in the same contest. It’s probably a good idea to avoid GIF files so that everyone will be on the same "playing field" (if you will).

On another note, I'm looking forward to the entries for March's "Silent Hill" Signature Contest. ^_^
