A contest for you graphically clever people – Win Game Maker 8 Pro

January 22nd, 2010 by Philip Gamble | Categories: Blog news, Competition

Game Maker Blog lacks a favicon and our Twitter avatar is boring!

Will you make us a pair?  Oh go on, please.  There will be a prize.  If your design is picked as the winner you can choose from either an upgraded version of Game Maker 8, an Indie game of your choice upto the same value or two months advertising on this site.  Sadly our budget doesn’t stretch to PSPs, iPhones or Nexus Ones.

  • Favicon requirements: 16×16 size, .ico format.
  • Twitter avatar:  73×73 size, .png format
  • There are no other requirements other than to use your imagination.

Submit your entries as a direct message to @gamemakerblog or by PM at the GMC.

Deadline: February 12th.

    I don’t like doing icon size, so I tried my hand at the twitter avatar.
