Oh this is going to be a good one for our talented members on ATS/BTS!

Thank you greeneyedleo
I cant wait to see what you all come up with xx

Ok first submission, I do hope its within the T&C's of nudity as its not actually nudity, but a pose....

Good idea for a contest, well done

Cool - I might have a go... So long as you guys promise not to laugh - I'm not that good on that sort of thing, could do with the practice.

I remember there was a link to 'blank' or 'clean' ATS logos that people were using for avatars etc.... Can anyone dig that up? There were quite a few, they would be handy.

I agree, there should be a link to the blank logos around somewhere.

And I am planning on keeping my entries very "simple" as well. I surely cannot compete with some of the people on here, but will give it a go.

Here's one..

its in PSD format for photoshop apparently

Probably a stupid question but...

Rules:

If I am doing a wallpaper for BTS, is it OK to have belowtopsecret.com instead of abovetopsecret.com ?? Just don't want to be disqualified for something like this.

Thanks..

reply to post by tribewilder


Yes it is! No question is stupid!

OH OH OH

Excellent Idea...

I can't wait to see some of these and use them on my PC's

Semper

Great idea GEL!

I might enter if I get time away from designing my marriage invitations!

If anyone needs it......the typeface for "ATS" and "BTS" is called "abduction". Quite fitting eh?

Available to download HERE

***NOTE: it must be reversed if used to match our logos on the site.***
