What kinds of titles catch your eyes?
What things in a thread make you want to view the project?

Post anything and everything that makes you view projects and advertisements.

Use red on white for an ad, that always attracts the eye.

How is this possible O.O? (the white part that is)

The combination of the two just attracts the eye and makes it curious.

I think red on red works quite well, really.

I'm most likely to look at:
- Topics with a good descriptive title.
Noting too vague. The more unique, the better.
- Topics whose first post gives a brief explanation of what the overall project is about.
Anything about game type or game play would be great (for example, is the game a platformer? Is it a puzzle adventure?)
- Pretty colorful stuff! 8D
... Just kidding lol . But, really, images such as screenshots or character sheets would be awesome as they are visual clues and hints about the overall epicness of a game in general. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so one splash screen is enough for me.

Wait... we're talking about advertisements on projects?

I thought we were talking about real life - like billboards, and commercials xD

Ones without stick figures.

Colored in ad.

Not like,"OMG THIS IZ SO COLL CHEC THIS OUT NAOW!!!!"

Description of ad.

Links FTW.

Anything that...zazzles tongue

1. A title that has good capitalization, grammar, vocabulary, and spelling. It should also make sense.

Good Example:

Cannibarr's Quest for the Golden Cup

Bad Example:

msterr magics super cool thingy o awsomnes

2. Whatever you do, DON'T USE ALL CAPITALS IN YOUR THAT LOOK DEMANDING AND SAY THINGS LIKE CLICK HERE OR YOU DIE!!!!!

Good Example:

A really cool game: You should check it out!

Bad Example:

IF U DO NOT CLICK HERE SEVEN GHOSTS WILL COME TO UR HOPUSE AND EAT YOUR SOUL S CLICK THE LINK!!!!!!!!1! 7!!!!

3. Use softer, less spammish looking colors. (The examples are for if you are making a banner and need good colors)

Good Example:

|||||||||||||||

Bad Example:

|||||||||||||||

I hope this helped big_smile

I think a good ad should have:

a screenshot of the thing it is adverstising
the title of the thing (duh)
maybe a short description
