Want to win a lens for Christmas? I'm going to run a quick contest featuring the
Pentax 35mm as the prize, or another lens of similar value if you already have the 35mm (vintage lenses included).
Pentax SMCP-DA 35mm f/2.4 AL Wide Angle AF Lens #21987 21987 Contest Details
So what's this contest about? It's simple: design the best PentaxForums.com banner to win! The
PentaxForums.com Facebook page is in need of a new cover photo, and I thought why not let our members design it!
The best submission will be used as the new Facebook cover photo (as determined by the site staff), as the author of this submission will win the lens!
Here is our current cover photo, the one which your submission will be replacing:

Submission Guidelines
1. Banner must be submitted in lossless .png or .psd format
1. The aspect ratio
must be 850 (w) : 315 (h), so a 850 x 315 pixel image is what you should be submitting (can be scaled down, etc.)
3. Our logo should be located on the right 1/3rd of the photo, similar to what's currently there. Feel free to move it up or down as you see fit
Note: if you end up not using the logo or placing it elsewhere, your submission may still be accepted if it is otherwise very appealing. You will be notified via e-mail if your banner is rejected.
4. You may not include others' photos in your banner without explicit written permission from the author. Pentax press product photos are generally in the public domain
5. The banner should be appealing to our general site audience
6. Strong recommendation, but not a requirement: include photos of Pentax gear in the banner!
Here is the logo you should use in the banner:
