DESIGN A MINIPOSTER WITH A HOT BABE TO ADVERTISE AN UPCOMING NEWGROUNDS EVENT!

PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS CAREFULLY SO YOU DON'T FAIL MISERABLY

Luis bought me a book last year called Art of Modern Rock Mini#2: POSTER GIRLS. I have decided that it is awesome and along with NEWGROUND'S 2008 USER OF THE YEAR HOLY SHIT ReNaeNae have devised this contest which will result in the printing of a mini-book featuring THE BEST 25 ENTRIES.

What to do
Create a miniposter ( max of 5 inches wide by 7 inches high ) to advertise an upcoming NG event OF ANY KIND. It can be the release of a new game or movie, a party/meetup, the release of a new system that you'd like to see etc. The main focus of the poster must be a hot babe for no other reason than because it's awesome.

Some examples from the book: Yhaaaaar <==== LOOK AT THESE, SERIOUSLY
And the one I made as an example:

As you can see, it has almost nothing to do with Mastermind, and the posters in the book have just about nothing to do with the band they promote. Or anything for that matter. But they're cool.

Rules
- Main focus of image has to be a hot babe
- Image must be SAFE FOR WORK ( no totally exposed...things.. )
- Image must be drawn at 300 DPI, with a max size of 5 inches wide and 7 inches tall. In terms of pixels, that is 1500 wide by 2100 tall
- It must be about something featured on newgrounds or related to newgrounds in some way
- It must contain the following information:

- What's going to happen
- Who's responsible for making that happen
- When that thing is going to happen

- No use of photos
- No stealing ( huh obvioulsy )
- Has to be material created specifically for this contest. Don't reuse old things you've made.

Friendly Advice
- If your image is dark, think about putting a white border around it so it looks better against black
- Even though there's no set size, at least make either the height or the width the max size. It's cooler.

Here's what a page might look like:
