Banners/Icons Posted by alassante7 May 24, 2008 - 23:38:55 Topic ID# 8845
Am I the only one having problems downloading the banners and icons
for 2008? The download option doesn't appear to be available.

Hi Alassante,

The reason you can't download it is because you need to be logged in to
the banner website. (And it requires a special log in - not what you use
for the rest of the MEFA website.) I have set up a username/password for
all of the MEFA nominees, which I have encouraged liaisons to give their
authors on request.

I'll email you the password privately. (We password-protect it so not
just anyone can download banners - only the people who are actually
nominated.) If any other nominated author would like to download
banners, let me know.

Yep, any nominated author can download the banners made for nominees.
Later in the awards session, you'll be given information to download
banners for reviewers who meet their reviewing goal, and people whose
stories win an award.

To download a banner:

1. Go to http://www.mefawards.net/fanart/ and login. (I'll email you the

2. Click on the link for 2008 Nominees.
3. Find the banner you would like to use and click on the image.

This will download the image to your computer. You can then use it like
any other image.

Will send you that password privately right now.

Hi Jo,

I'm sorry you're having such trouble! We'll get you straightened out. I
checked and Cathleen is indeed your liaison, but I can help you at least
get logged in to the site.

I sent you your password via private email to jodancingtree@yahoo.com
from mefasupport@gmail.com. Please let me know if it doesn't come through.

Once you receive it, you should be able to log in to
http://www.mefawards.net/MFA2008 with that account. And once you do
*that*, you should click on the link to "View Your Nominated Stories."
From there, you should see a link to "Edit Data"; that takes you to the
form to fill out about the story.

If you have any questions, you should email them to Cathleen. (I copied
her on the password email, so you should have her email address.) Also,
once you complete the form and are satisfied with it, you should email
her to let her know that you are satisfied with the form.

If I can be of help, let me know. And thanks again for your persistence!

Hi Marta,

Fiondil had told us (the banner makers ;p) to hold off on sending him more banners until after June first when he would have time to go thru them and load them... he has been coordinating winner banners so that we will have good variety. In addition to winner banners, I have also made some nominee banners, but I have not sent them out to him yet. Since people are starting to download nominee banners, do you want me to send those to you or someone else before June first?

I've just taken a look and see there are some lovely ones so far!
Question though - I didn't see much of Merry and Pippin, or pictures
that featured the 4 hobbits together. I did see quite a few of Sam and
Frodo. Of course, since most of my stories are hobbit-centric, and
Merry and Pip in particular, I wonder if there will be more made??

Hi Cathleen,

I have a Pippin nomination already made up using some of my own art work but it is not posted yet. I can also make up a Merry, and one of them together if you need for nominations (I also have winner versions of most of the nominations ones I have done). As for winner banners Fiondil is organizing the Winner banners and many of them are not up right now but will be soon.... others may have done some Merry and Pippen for winner banners also since that was discussed, but I don't know everything that others have done.

Cactuskim.... off to do a few more banners. ;p

Hi Cactuskim! Thanks so much for letting me know that! I would personally love to see plenty of the 4 hobbits together for a good selection of choices, plus some nice individual ones and Merry and Pippin together. I recall that last year I had a bit of a difficult time finding some of just those hobbits that I really liked. Thanks again!

Hi Cactuskim,

I think it makes the most sense to handle this through the liaisons.
I've just told the liaison team to tell authors (if they give out the
password) that several more banners will be added at the beginning of
June and throughout the nomination season - so they can hold off if they
like for better selection, or can go ahead and choose if they prefer.
Does that sound okay?

Btw, in the interest of full disclosure - I have created several banners
myself, but because there were so many I've uploaded them myself.
(Fiondil and I discussed this, and it made more sense than me emailing
them to him.) I didn't do this to rush ahead of you guys who are waiting
until June 1, though. :-)

Hi Cathleen,

You're right, there aren't that manny - though there are more than last
year, I think. That really depends on the people who make banners on
whether there will be more. I've uploaded a few myself that you might
find interesting, and have a few more I'll probably be uploading. And
there's the chance that the other banner-creators will make some as well.

Do you know anyone who makes hobbit-centric fanart? We'd be glad to have
some new submissions.

Here are some that might interest you:

All four hobbits together:

http://mefawards.net/fanart/details.php?image_id=2429
http://mefawards.net/fanart/details.php?image_id=2548

Merry and Pippin:

http://mefawards.net/fanart/details.php?image_id=2565

And one good all-purpose Shire shot:

http://mefawards.net/fanart/details.php?image_id=2559

PS - If you have any movie screencaps or other graphics you'd like to
see made into banners? I find it pretty soothing, and would be glad to
give it a try, or I'm sure some of the other banner-makers might take it
under advisement.

Hi Nautika,

She offered to tackle the Hobbits ... *Snicker* that creates an 'interesting' mental image ;p... so I was not planing on doing very much with Hobbits. The only thing I was going to do was to make a handful using some of my original art work which only I can use, and maybe a couple using some rare images I have acquired over the years..... I'm not the type to go on a Hobbit Binge ;p

Hey all,

Your friendly banner coordinator here. If you are looking through the
banners and don't see what you're looking for please contact either me (
namondil@gmail.com) or Marta and tell us. I have been keeping track of the
kinds of banners we have and those that we lack. More banners with the
hobbits is one of them. There are also too few Legolas and Gimli banners as
well. Hopefully, we will have more before the end of the voting period.

Banner makers (You know who you are): if you have any *NOMINEE* banners
ready, go ahead and send them to me. Keep the Reviewers and Winners banners
until after June 1. I hope to have all the banners in place before I leave
China at the end of July, as I'll be out of computer range for a couple of
weeks as I make my way across Asia via the Trans-Mongolian Railway to Moscow
and then eventually into Europe. *grin*

Again, if anyone would like to see a particular subject matter for the
banners (whether nominee, reviewer or winners) please let us know so we can
assign them to one of the banner makers.

Thank you.

Silmarillion banners (for winners) we have, but I haven't had a chance to
upload them. They will be up by the weekend if you want to wait. If you're
looking for Silm banners for nominees, we can adapt one of the winners
banners for that if you let your liaison know which one you want.

Really, I think it is best if people wait until the nomination period is
over with before choosing an appropriate banner if they want. We're doing
the best we can to get things up but I'm in the middle of revision and
testing here at my school, so time is a premium. Please be patient. You
still have nearly three weeks before the nomination period ends.

Thanks.

I've made about 40 winner banners that are based around the
Silmarillion. They haven't been uploaded yet because Fiondil is very
busy at work at the moment and there are a lot of them.
Some of them are on the site already though. I haven't made any into
nominee benners yet, but I let Fiondil know that I would be happy to
cross any over if anyone wants one.

So, basically if anyone see a winner banner (under the name Eleanor)
that they would like as a nominee banner then just let us know and
I'lll make you one.

Hi Cactuskim,

I think it makes the most sense to handle this through the liaisons.
I've just told the liaison team to tell authors (if they give out the
password) that several more banners will be added at the beginning of
June and throughout the nomination season - so they can hold off if they
like for better selection, or can go ahead and choose if they prefer.
Does that sound okay?

Btw, in the interest of full disclosure - I have created several banners
myself, but because there were so many I've uploaded them myself.
(Fiondil and I discussed this, and it made more sense than me emailing
them to him.) I didn't do this to rush ahead of you guys who are waiting
until June 1, though. :-)

Hi Fiondil,

I will send out the nominee ones I have already made to you on Tuesday, and hold the rest back. I have already done a few Gimili's and also Legolas ones, but am planing on doing more. I also have some Weapons, and Banner Banners... *Grin* that sounds like bad English, but you know what I mean; Banner pics on Banners (and buttons/icons) ;p. Also several ME type scenery from my own photos.

Oh! your trip home sounds fascinating!

Hey all,

Your friendly banner coordinator here. If you are looking through the
banners and don't see what you're looking for please contact either me (
namondil@gmail.com) or Marta and tell us. I have been keeping track of the
kinds of banners we have and those that we lack. More banners with the
hobbits is one of them. There are also too few Legolas and Gimli banners as
well. Hopefully, we will have more before the end of the voting period.

Banner makers (You know who you are): if you have any *NOMINEE* banners
ready, go ahead and send them to me. Keep the Reviewers and Winners banners
until after June 1. I hope to have all the banners in place before I leave
China at the end of July, as I'll be out of computer range for a couple of
weeks as I make my way across Asia via the Trans-Mongolian Railway to Moscow
and then eventually into Europe. *grin*

Again, if anyone would like to see a particular subject matter for the
banners (whether nominee, reviewer or winners) please let us know so we can
assign them to one of the banner makers.

Thank you.

Fiondil

Hi Cactuskim! Thanks so much for letting me know that! I would personally love to see plenty of the 4 hobbits together for a good selection of choices, plus some nice individual ones and Merry and Pippin together. I recall that last year I had a bit of a difficult time finding some of just those hobbits that I really liked. Thanks again!

As for winner banners Fiondil is organizing the Winner banners and many of them are not up right now but will be soon.... others may have done some Merry and Pippen for winner banners also since that was discussed, but I don't know everything that others have done.

Hi Cathleen

Don't worry. We all (myself, Nautika, Marta, Cactuskim, Baranduin) do a
bit of everything and between us we are doing our very best to get as
wide and varied a range of banners as possible.
Suggestions are always helpful though and hopefully if someone would
like something specific they will ask their liaison to contact Fiondil
about it.

That will be fine. I look forward to seeing them.

Yes, the trip is both fascinating and expensive but I think I deserve a

Sorry to bring up this old topic again. I don't get to the group website
often!

I was wondering if the rule, or standard I should say, was still one
banner per nominee. Or can you have a banner for each story? [:)]

Hi docmon,

I don't know that we "have" an official standard, but I don't see any
