in the rules it says no hentai, wots hentai?

I'll ignore the literal meaning and go with what it probably refers to in this context: anime pr0nz.

[Trainer Dave]

It's pretty much something that's definitely not appropriate for a 3+ site. (Mature/Explicit content is not allowed)

It's probably best just not to ask/worry about it.

Here's a "this image hasn't been found" question mark thingie

[Deoxys2]

^ But you didn't make that. They could have used that themselves if they wanted to.

I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what a sidebar looks like. Could you post a rough template or something to give my brain a little jog?
( i think it's that bar to the side of the screen but IDK)

If you're looking for section banners, I could see about doing something over the summer if you don't mind waiting a month or so? I'm not sure if you're looking for original art or merely official pokemon art, but if you're looking for original art (I'm terrible with graphics when it comes to arranging them all pretty-like);

I could do a mini-series for you. (All drawn from scratch of course). Just Games, Anime, Misc., Site and Forums? One by 120x70 and one by 600x100 for each?

Is there any possibility to have the larger banners slightly thicker? If not I'll see what I can do. c:

[Joeno]

We can make the large banners thicker, yeah, that can still work - not too much (we don't want people to have to scroll too far), but they can be higher.

Give anything a go. What might be more useful are more specific sections, such as specific games.

Original art would be great - using official art is okay, but original art would be great.

Thanks for your offer!

So, with the section banners, are you wanting banners with different site sections or different forum sections? Sorry, it's jut this part the confuses me.
If it's original art you're looking for, I can't do much. But if you would like graphics with official artworks, I could do some stuff for you. If you want, just look at my signature. I made that myself, if you're looking for a small example.
Anyways, just tell me what you're talking about and then an estimate of how long it should take. I should be able to complete it fairly quickly if need be, depending on just how many banners were needed.

[Joeno]

It's site sections. We never refer to anything on the forums as 'sections'

5. Several images for new 'sidebars'. Can't show it yet, but I can give fairly specific limits. They need to be 250 pixels wide. Height is not set, but 400 pixels is about right. Most of it should be a fairly neutral background, that stays readable. The text colour can be changed if necessary, if it works better with a dark background. What I'd like to see in this area, if possible, is also a subtle watermark that is related to the information. This area will be covered with readable text, keep that in mind.
The bottom 30 pixels, height-wise, should be different. This is the 'header' bit, and should have the relevant text for the sidebar, as well as some decoration. No other text will appear in this area, so more variety is possible here.
To take Platinum as an example, it would be nice to have a light grey background, with a Giratina watermark. The bottom can be a dark grey, with a white 'Platinum only' text and, say, a Giratina image.
Please also let me know what colour is used for the main background - I need to use that elsewhere. Look at the Dex information to see the semi-official colours we use for some of the games.
A list of currently considered sidebars are:
* Platinum only
* Crystal only
* Emerald only
* FireRed/LeafGreen only
* Yellow only
* Japanese only
* Non-Japanese only (This needs a better text)
* Glossary
* Explanation (Sort of a generic bar - might be able to go without a bottom bar)

I could do this. Give me awhile and I could think of something (maybe).
Hopefully this is what you meant:

[Joeno]

That's not the sidebar (but that 's not been used anyway), but could possibly be used for section headers. I've bookmarked the post for future perusal...

Can i use things I've already posted on DeviantArt 

[The name master]

I've made a skarmory/latias fusion that you can use if you want! I'll show you tomorrow!

[sans the skeleton]
