You can find some good images to use at http://www.hlrse.net/Qwerty/subspace/. Some of the standard images:

Nice poster-sized advertisement (unfortunately it does not fit the Google AdWords criteria due to its enormous size):

Also consider using some of the 2D graphics. I would recommend pulling graphics from http://www.ssforum.net/index.php?showtopic=24112&view=findpost&p=258516&hl=&fromsearch=1 if you want to save yourself time from having to rename *.bm2 to *.bmp, and want to achieve the highest potential quality. Subspace FX uses mostly PNGs with GIFs, so you can readily open them in Photoshop and Paint without renaming anything.

Random bar per page load:

Code to index.php in /randomsubsbar.jpg/:

<?php

$arr = array('subsbar.jpg', 'subsbar2.jpg', 'subsbar11.jpg', 'subsbar3.jpg', 'subsbar4.jpg', 'subsbar5.jpg', 'subsbar6.jpg', 'subsbar7.jpg', 'subsbar8.jpg', 'subsbar9.jpg', 'subsbar10.jpg');

$rnd_num = rand(0, count($arr));

$filename = $arr[$rnd_num];

header('Location: http://www.hlrse.net/Qwerty/randomsubsbar.jpg/' . $filename);

Here is each bar:

Just something I managed to do within the last hour or two. I plan on spending some time tomorrow to create more variations and different kinds. I want to use some cutouts from screenshots, some of the 3D images (have some ideas there), "it is possible" sets, and create a set using an imitation font to the Subspace title saying "Continuum" or "Get Continuum".

 

EDIT: I have added Trained's submission and everything in this post to the Google AdWords campaign. =)

Looks like a bunch of stars with the word subspace in it. Needs some ships fighting or something interesting for people to click on.

[aquarius]

Is flash ok?

[L.C.]

Is flash ok?

Only SWF.

[aquarius]

Cool, any 'action' suggestions? I'll make 1 swf for each size.

[L.C.]

Idea #1:

Perhaps you can have the SWF start out as a leviathan being chased into a box by two newbs, and at good timing warps back to his portal that is now behind the two newbs (who are now flying into the box) and smashes both of em with a few good L3 prox bombs in direct hits. This would be SVS themed, or whatever.

 

That, or the same thing, except when the leviathan warps back to his portal, the viewer is given a choice of weaponry: bullets, bombs, burst, thor's hammer, etc. Viewer would select a weapon, it would quickly finish the animation, and then redirect to getcontinuum.com ... ?

 

 

 

Idea #2:

lol, or even perhaps the original intro in top-view 2D or something.

 

 

 

Idea #3:

Or what about that "Have you had your greens today?" one?

 

 

 

EDIT: Meh, getting side-tracked and not coming up with good "action" ideas.

 

EDIT2: By the way, 50KB is the limit... D:

Some dude going fast, screen scrolling, bunch of prox mines appear in sight, can't brake, boom, chat goes somedude> pwnt

[aquarius]

Yea I like the idea of the 'main' ship exploding

I like that!

[Samapico]

And it could fit in a small banner... Like the ship heading this way ------------>

Or more precisely, the stars (and eventually the mine field) going this way <---------

[»Lynx]

The amount of images in this thread is making my arsehole twitch.

 

I really like your idea, Sama. It shouldn't be hard for somebody who's good with Flash to make, either.

[Samapico]

I could start with the ship spawning, with the warp flash thing... so it would be easy to make it loop

[Trained]

My image above was small. Ill make some more tonight, ill take my time on them this time.

[aquarius]

Found a pretty neat script. With some adjustments the user could actually fly a ship around.

Bump. More submissions please.

[kid]

I plan on making some of these when I get some time (likely tomorrow).

[rootbear75]

can someone please put those pictures in a spoiler tag.

By the way, I remember I advocated flash the other day - avoid flash ads.

If it had an apostrophe in "it's", it would be perfect.
