Animated Banner Design for Steemit Advertising Campaign
For the past few days I have been involved in a project initiated by @cryptohustlin in order to get some campaigns going. The crypto-wave is on the rise so we might as well ride it.
I will be designing some animated banners. I want to note here that I will receive (a reduced) payment for the upcoming designs but if enough amount is gathered through this post I will keep making more variations and designs for future campaigns.
Here are a few of our currently running campaigns. https://goo.gl/#analytics/goo.gl/DZ7a4j/month https://goo.gl/#analytics/goo.gl/K4b2ym/all_time https://goo.gl/#analytics/goo.gl/exNCJZ/all_timeA few more campaigns are on the way.
I preserved the original slogan (the one used last year). A small explanation about the concept: The first letters appear as being typed (blogging reference) while the "get paid" flashes more vividly. The transition that follows maintains the basic shape of the logo.
Keep in mind that the animation had to be optimized in many ways since most websites allow only a minimal size for animated banners.
I will be experimenting with vertical designs for side banners as well as different themes that would fit more appropriately for each specific campaign. If you want to use the banner for promoting Steemit yourself feel free to do so. if you need a smaller size please message me on Steemit chat and I will arrange it.
Edit: Version 2
Great design! My only issue is that I'm not a big fan of the word "blog" to sell it. That's what we have now, but I think it's going to change and that we'll see more diverse lengths/types of content be rewarded appropriately also. I think "Post" or "Post. Vote." might appeal to more people.
"Post. Vote." sounds more appropriate indeed. I can prepare a variation, no problem.
I think so as well, "Post.Vote" does seem better. But anyways, I like it! Concise and great design at the same time.
Great job guys!
thank you
I'm a curator, not a blogger, so I also prefer the variation suggested here for the wording.
Plus, "Blog. Get Paid" does seem somewhat like a writing job advertisement. The other suggestions do seem to better refect the unique content reward offerings of Steemit versus blogging elsewhere.
looks good man!
Nice sketches, digital art! Check out my works, would be honored to get followed by you. My recent post.
Congratulations @kyriacos!
Your post was mentioned in my hit parade in the following category:
SLICK banner design, love it :D
thank you
Wow! That looks incredible! It looks like it has integrity too from its aesthetic. When I tell people about Steemit they feel like it's a scam or too good to be true. This helps everyone get the word out.
glad it sets a high standard then :) let's hope they do join
nice campaign, good work!
thank you

Great work mate!
I have also sketched some great ideas about https://steemit.com/ and i will showcase on my next post.
Well done.
thank you
That GIF is so simple but it looks great!
Might start using it on different forums I go on
please do. if anyone needs smaller versions please let them contact me on chat.
