WiiBrew:Contests

This is to act as a central point for the requesting, suggesting, and possibly voting on potential logos for projects related to Wii homebrew. Needless to say, all images must be released under an acceptable free license (it will be included in a GPLv2 program) and contain no copyrighted imagery. Each request can be thought of as a "contest". Be sure to spread the word to anyone you think would be interested about current contests!

Notes

Many users appear to be coming here to submit artwork, bypassing the Introduction, and aren't familiar with how to use a wiki. If you are a user who wants to post some artwork but cannot figure out how, the following articles will be very helpful:

• Wikipedia Editing Cheatsheet
  
• How to edit a page (To learn how to do something, search this page)
  
• Upload images here (Register before doing this)
• How to Link to Uploaded Images
• Please use .png if possible.

Try your best to follow existing formatting, but if you can't do it someone will fix it for you.

Be sure to add usernames in alphabetical order and pictures in order of release.

Because this page is receiving such large amounts of traffic not related to the rest of the wiki, it is exempt from the Loose Rules and offending users will not be penalized. That said, the page still needs to be constantly checked and fixed for common errors. Some of the most common have been:

• Not adding new usernames and entries according to alphabetical order
• Irregular capitalization and grammar. Just follow standard rules of US English grammar.
• Pictures not linked correctly
• (Add any others)

Please fix these problems when you see them.

Contest: General Homebrew (ACTIVE)

<segher> the logo should at first glance refer to our homebrew stuff, not just to the game
<MadCatMk2> Just a quick recommendation: I think the logo should be rather simplistic, so as smaller versions are easily recognisable.

A lot of the less-specific entries into the Zelda Chainloader contest would be good candidates for the General Homebrew logo.

Alpha

• 

amoose136

• 

  With blurry reflections.

• 
• 

CyberAxe

• 

Cladil

• 

dasda

• 

Kaktus621

• 
• 
• 

  A more Logo-like Image, can be Scaled down for Icons or something like this (Vector Graphics)

• 

  e.g. like this (the Blue Rays could be removed in the icon-like sizes, the important part is the (in my opinion) easy-to-remember WB (WiiBrew) logo

Hideki

• 

  There were a few changes I wanted to make but my photoshop started acting up :/

limnique

• 
• 

MadMUHHH

• 

MetaBolt

• 

  Two variations here- blue, to fit with the Homebrew Channel and general style

• 

  and purple, a color that differs from the other colors in the 'Wii' game series (Wii Sports, etc.)

• 

  ...and a pseudo-3D one, 'cos people seem to like that sort of thing.

M.vit

• 
• 
• 

olster2

• 

  standard

• 

  has the wii in the background (i realize you can see a faint witness on the edges of the blue sun but shhhhhhhhh!)

• 

  Has a nice border round the edges

• 

  Same as above but with transparent background

Pinecone

• 

  By no means simple, but then again, neither is homebrew!

Pop

• 

opoona

• 

Trayne

• 

Yigguth

• 

  This is simple enough right?

PZYR0

• 

  choppy.

Contest: Homebrew channel music (ACTIVE)

Post music you made or music you think would be good. Ideally it should loop well.

To clarify: This is the music for the screen when the Homebrew channel banner(s) are being displayed. (There is currently no plan for what will come after "Start" is selected, suggestions can be posted on the WiiBrew Channel Ideas article though.)

Remember, all must be under an acceptable free license.

The Newgrounds Audio Portal would be a good place to look, since all music there is the music is free to use (being released under a Creative Commons license), if you want to help.

Big Chip

Here is a little loop i knocked up on a Nintendo game boy especialy for this project.

I don't believe long songs are the way to go, for filesize reasons and because the channel screen will usually only be on for a few seconds. So here's a short loop (approx. 8.5 secs), multi-layered so it doesn't get boring too soon, going on the underwater theme of souLLy's screen. EQ is on the careful side, not going overboard on bass and techno elements.

MrKsoft

A little intro tune I threw together: http://ejellyfish.illemonati.com/mp3/WiiBrew%20Channel%20Intro.mp3 Check it out. (Yes, the tagging is correct-- Exploding Jellyfish is the name I put my music under. It is not stolen music from elsewhere.)

Odb718

I jam out to this and I think it's a good fit for a wii channel.

- This music is featured in the movie "The Life Aquatic". I believe this is NOT under any free license. --Fashnek 16:45, 23 March 2008 (PDT)

Candidate 2: http://audioo.com/#section:home_tracks_viewtrack_29596198d266e39 This one would rock with 5 seconds delay and then after that everything comes up.

Candidate 3: http://audioo.com/#section:home_tracks_viewtrack_d0bf38c9ea27249 - Would sound REALLY cool on the winning homebrew channel screen!
