      I have created a bunch of “banners”, or buttons, that people with websites can use to create a link (button) to the Windstone website. I have used standardized sizes that are universally used online.

      What do you think of these?

        They look great! The only criticism I have is that, on the vertical ones, “Editions” appears scrunched. It’s purely an optical illusion, I think, though.

          i agree with ghostndragon… ‘editions’ should be easier to see. otherwise they look great!

          Thanks for the variety of sculpts! Though it’s a bit painful to look at that Fennec and not be able to buy one yet! 😉

              Very cool! Is that the autumn leaf old warrior? He is gorgeous.

                  I LOVE these. How can we make these happen to show up in the submission description on DeeviantArt? I can’t remember if they allow html.

                  You think DA could provide an extra exposure element for the company? A group or account could start happening, but that’s their initiative.

                    Users create groups. Melody is working on one. 🙂

                      The banners are beautiful, but I am wondering if they’re fit for their purpose. Maybe I’m wrong, but I assume that the purpose is to attract new potential buyers. If that is your goal, wouldn’t it be better to show regular edition sculpts? Otherwise new visitors might be disappointed that they can’t buy what they saw.

                        I see your point, but as an example, the main page (the first thing you see when you enter windstoneeditions.com!) has a giant picture of a gorgeous Blue Flame Old Warrior that is most definitely not a production piece. I think the idea is to catch people’s eye and bring them to the site where they can be introduced to Windstone in general 🙂

                        EDIT:

                        Jennifer I hope you don’t mind but I looked into that broken image up there to see what might be going on with it, and I think you added a 1 to the link that shouldn’t be there – it’s “cat banner 14” instead of 4:

                        EDIT 2:

                        When we use these, would you like us to save them on our own servers if we have them, or would you rather us use them exactly as they are on your website?

                          It might be my browser, bur I find the font that says the art of m. Peña tends to jar with the Windstone logo; it almost seems like Courier.

                          Read my books! Volume 1 and 2 of A Dragon Medley are available now.

                            Awesome! Will she be announcing on the forum? The smallest images would make perfect stamps!

                              It’s not Courier, but I only have a small number of fonts that I may legally use for a commercial application like this. I wrote John to see if he has access to the font used for the Windstone site. If so I will replace it.

                              Very cool! Is that the autumn leaf old warrior? He is gorgeous.

                              Yes, it is! It’s one of the only Old Warriors I had a good clear official photo of.

                              Thank you for catching that, I fixed it!
                              I think it’d be best if you host the images yourself. They are small– I made the file size as small as possible for a reason, but if enough people did it, it could put an (unnecessary) draw on the server, etc and soforth XD

                              Awesome! Will she be announcing on the forum? The smallest images would make perfect stamps!

                              I think stamps use a specific file size don’t they? I don’t knooooow. I should make a stamp that says I <3 Windstones or something huh?
                              I'm sure it will be announced when there is the PYO group. 🙂
