Here at the Trails, we are pleased to announce that the good folks at Painful Pleasures are sponsoring a design contest to create a banner for use on this site! www.painfulpleasures.com carries everything you'd want from Inks (Mom's, Intenze, Starbrite, Skin Candy, and Kuro Sumi) to disposable needles and tubes and more. There will be a $100 1st prize, $50 2nd prize , and $25 3rd prize awarded in a credit towards any tattoo supplies from their site.

Here's the official rules:

  • Must be based on "tattoo art/flash"
  • Must contain the words "Painful Pleasures" and "Quality Tattoo Supplies." The text DOES NOT have to be hand drawn (you may use Photoshop for fonts if you like).
  • Entries must be submitted in a final size of width of between 468 pixels x height of 60 pixels to 728px × 90px at a resolution of 72 DPI (dots/inch)
  • Artwork MUST be ORIGINAL and drawn by YOU!
  • Each member may submit only ONE entry
  • Pencil, Pen, Ink, Crayon, Paints, watercolor etc...
  • NO Digital images (you may and should use Photoshop to crop you image and/or modify your art for the size requirements)
  • Entries must be submitted by August 1st 12AM PST.
  • Entries will be voted on by members and voting will end on August 4th at 5pm PST. Winners will be announced the following day.
  • Please post entries in this post.
  • All participating members grant Ink Trails and Painful Pleasures the exclusive right to unlimited use of their banner design as well as the right edit and/or modify at our discretion.


I'd encourage everyone to be creative. You can create an entire flash design and crop it in Photoshop so that only a thin use only a portion of your design (60 pixels tall is not a ton of space!). Again, Photoshop CAN be used so long as the basis of your submission is original artwork drawn by YOU! Have fun and good luck to everyone!

I've gotta say that I tinkered around
with this a little today & 168 X 60 @
72dpi was too small to make anything
out.......


Sorry, just reread the first post & noticed it now says 468 X 60.
I'd printed this out earlier & it said 168 X 60.!....
Reason for edit: My inability to read......

I made a typo, it was 468 x 60! And as a matter of fact, I would say keep the width at 468, but if you want extend the height to 100 pixels if that works out better...

I have to point out that the postage to some countries is around $40 something dollars.. ? if I recall... so the would be worth finding out if the voucher includes postage or if it just covers supplies....
so if you could find out from painful pleasures that would be good info for the overseas members Jason.

I may enter just to get me to draw something as I haven't in a while....

I like banners! small is sweet :-)

When you win the lottery, you have to pay taxes. Game show? Same thing. Prizes usually only cover the item or goods.
