Excellent. Do you use Discord? That's where we do most of our collaborating on staff. 

As Vek said, yes definitely.

Wasn't expecting that, nice touch.

Good idea. Can we do this Talon?

Yeah having the categories listed in some way is ideal. These ones look a bit too tall to fit on the banners at present though?

My main concern aside from the look and everything is making them easily reusable for future years. So my question to Talon would be, if he's given the font, would he be able to add functionality to the current GotY tool in the database that would allow me to basically write in the categories and year when assigning a GotY stamp to a game page, if we were to use this design?

Well, yeah - that's kind of what I said I would do with the current image that's displaying. I'm already outputting the year, it wouldn't take all that much to give you a category drop-down and output that information too. And the size of these images aren't really a problem either, as I can control the size during output and shrink them down as needed.

...the only question that truly exists is - which image looks better. Personally, I like the one that were using right now - although this look nice, too. The images could be changed each year, too - they don't have to look one way forever. 

 

Anyway, I'm going to step out of this discussion and leave it all to you, Machina (art just isn't my thing and I'd rather stick to code) - you tell me which graphic and what you want to display, and I'll see what I can do...

For what it's worth - I really like mZuzeks design. It's clean and I like the touch of converting the VGC logo into it's own Game of the Year trophy. It makes it very uniquely vgc imho.

Ravens design is very pretty as well, but a little more busy, since it doesn't have a dedicated space for text, atm.

Also, yeah I have discord. :)
