Layouts should consist of;;

-they can be made for any style
-S1 codes or S2 overrides acceptable
-header must be no deeper than 450px
-header must be no wider than 1024px
-all pictures used must be from the Babylon 5 universe. (Crusade allowed)
-winner will be credited in userinfo
-each person may only enter one layout
-any questions please e-mail or comment to one of the mods

Just to make absolutely certain: "all pictures used must be from Babylon 5" -- so no Crusade pics?

I've never made a layout before, but I am eager to try. I have a couple questions. My main one is this: Is a header basically just a big icon? :)

-S1 codes or S2 overrides acceptable
I'm not sure what this means, but I'm pretty positive it has something to do with LJ layouts.

-header must be no deeper than 450px
Dumb question perhaps, but does this mean height for the header?

Basically, yep :) just a big icon :D

The codes are for people who have been doing layouts for a while (I've been doing them for forever and the codes still scare me:P) bat basically it means, if you used them you could submit the colour scheme and everything, not just the images, but, images alone are MORE than acceptable! :D

And yep, that's the height, my bad, I should have just said 'height' lol

Happyme and I both have good examples of headers, happy me has a large one, 1000px x 342px

and i have a small one :D 556px by 345px

One more thing. You mentioned in the main post that you have links to where I can find caps. I realize I probably won't get a header done in time for the header challenge, but for future reference, I'd love to know where I can find some that haven't been posted in the community.

YOu can find caps here :) and as for the layout deadline, it may very well be extended once more :)
