Fanwork Type: One story banner. I am willing to include: Pixel size is your choice, but I have two versions I usually work in (but not always): one for 'portrait/page' style and one for 'thin banner' style. I will try and fit into the banner as many screenshots as you request. Story title and Author name will be prominent (or not, if you wish). I can do minor photo-manipulation if required. eg. You have a picture of Lois in a red dress, but you want it blue, or you want the dress longer, etc. I am not willing to include: Pictures, titles, words, etc which are above PG. Unrealistic romantic pairings. (Lex/Jimmy, Lois/Perry etc - URGH *feels sick*) Any further information: You must be the Author of whatever story this banner is for. I will send you 'proofs' along the way. Usually: Basic premise, Proof 1, Proof 2, Final. Fonts, colours, borders styles etc will be discussed during one of these proofing stages. No guaranteed delivery time due to these proofing stages being flexible. Example: ![[Linked Image]](http://mythtrekker.com/Vic/Banners/TheWeddingPactLnC.jpg) (For those of you interested ... fic coming soon!!!) Full range of art examples here .

Lois: "You put up with me for the same reason I put up with you. It's because I'm completely in love with you."
Clark: "And I love you ... Did we just make up?"
Lois: "I think so."

I'm going to start off the bidding at $5 for one of these Banner thingys. It looks like cover art for a story and I've got a couple of coverless epics, which could use some pretty pictures (or not, depending on the story). I'd like to see what you come up with, and since I don't know what stories of mine you've read, I'll narrow it down to: Missing Lois Green-Eyed Monster Another Dimension, Another Time, Another Lois or my current WIP Wrong Clark (I don't think I need to link you to that monster.)  Artist's choice. Surprise me.

Come on, people! KatherineKent ROCKS at this! She has been kind enough to do art for my upcoming sequel, Hidden Threats. I've also seen her work on other boards... You can't go wrong, and you'll have a memorable way to capture your story... I'd love to see what she could do with some of Female Hawk's interesting settings, for example. Hint, hint
Reach for the moon, for even if you fail, you'll still land among the stars... and who knows? Maybe you'll meet Superman along the way.

Sneaks in and throws a $20 on the table... You do such amazing work (I have a story I'm in the middle of writing--anything to up the reader interest when I post, being it's my first official fanfic--I figure is a good thing    ) Laura

Hmm... considering the likeliness of Virginia outbidding me again due to me testdriving my pillow very soon, I think I'll bow out. Virginia, if you feel like I gave in too easily and want another raise, you're welcome to pretend I upped the bid to fifty-five so you can jump in again and grab the grand prize! Michael

Did you up it or not?  With it seeming likely for me to win Wendy's Beta services, $50 is the highest I can go in this auction. (she says, looking above her for vultures coming in at the last minute for a quick kill... er... bid.).

Thanks, Michael. Hey, didn't you just go to sleep? Are you on the LnC 4 hour plan? (4 hours of sleep, gives you 4 hours longer to read FanFic.) EDIT: My mistake. For some reason I thought you went to sleep 5pm Board Time, not a couple hours earlier. Ooopps... Never mind.

Well. It's been interesting and exciting seeing you two fight it out for this. I didn't expect there to be so much interest as we are much more about the 'fic' on these boards than anything else.
Story banners/front covers/posters are much bigger on Ksite. Almost every story gets one (of ranging quality).
I'll be in contact soon Virginia. Looks like we won each other's auctions too! How cool is that.
Michael ... you want a banner so badly? PM me ... lets see what I can do.
KatherineKent/Victoria
Lois: "You put up with me for the same reason I put up with you. It's because I'm completely in love with you."
Clark: "And I love you ... Did we just make up?"
Lois: "I think so."
