There are 3 that I reeeeally like. This is gonna be tough!
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:03 pm
Glad to see 4 in the lead! Very Creative and Beautiful! Top three are beyond the size guide lines, the last one is very “cut-n-paste”, There were many many others that were great too.
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:09 pm
Where did the background from #4 come from?
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:12 pm
I still think that keeping the rotating banners is a good idea. They are all creative and different, and they all also represent something related to farmville.
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:14 pm
Harum. There were so many more that were better than these… Oh well.
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:17 pm
Looks like “Cut and Paste” is the way to go. I drew original art for mine, which I thought would give me an edge… Ah well.
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:19 pm
Fifth banner is a joke, right?
Congratulations to the other four, specially to the first one!
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:24 pm
What happened to the fruit one? These ones are ok, but there were many others that deserved to be in these top spots.
Rotating Banners would be the way to go. Pick a winner, but have a heap of people’s rotating.
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:25 pm
They’re good but I remember that I saw better ones
how come they’re not there?
Well I like 2 of this.. still can’t decide
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:27 pm
ACTUALLY the one that I liked the most was the one with all the fruits, vegetables and seeds! It was so colorful! and there was another one with the villa haha one of the 3 with the villa in it.
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:28 pm
Nicole,
Your banner is super cute! Bummer it isn’t a choice
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:31 pm
Hello everyone! Please vote for your favorite listed here. We’ve corrected the name issue in the poll, thank you for calling that out.
There were MANY entries and we tried to pick a variety of the spectrum as well as image quality and clarity consideration. No matter what someone will always be unsatisfied.
If you do not see your banner in rotation and you submitted an entry, it is possible it will still be used because we will be adding more banners to rotation soon.
Thanks for your participation!
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:32 pm
I agree that Im sorta disappointed that the one that I really loved didn’t make it to the top 5
Oh well….I voted, and good luck to the contestants
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:33 pm
@ Pam86: I loved the one with all the fruits and vegetables too!
I don’t like any of these finalists, there were much better banners. I also can’t believe #4 is in the lead, all the brown makes the farm look like a wasteland =/
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:36 pm
I forgot to mention that the apple tree in #4 looks like it’s from farm town -_-
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:41 pm
BTW is it #5 Rob the whiner ? The one who always complains about complainers? hahahahaha LOL hope people don’t complain that you got to be in the top 5!
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:43 pm
i think these are all great! I voted for matts it was my fav. simple and everything in it was real farmville!
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 9:43 pm

All the Finalist are very very beautifull
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 10:13 pm
I really loved lorena’s banner, it has got so much uniqueness in it and feels like it has been done so professionally, all other designs are really beautiful, it is really hard to vote the best because i felt all are best.The only thing lorena has done was a different colour effect than what normal farmville has..Keep up the good work friends
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 10:17 pm
I even loved matt’s banner like anything..But unfortunately i got only one vote :’(
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 10:18 pm
I hope mine too gets displayed once on the rotation… Disappointed I couldn’t make it to the finals :’( !! But congrats to the ones who did… Nice work…

I was overwhelmed with the talent I saw in the rotating banner. I am underwhelmed with the finalsts picked. Don’t get me wrong they are good and show more talent than I could ever pretend to have. But there were some jaw dropping ones! Come one farmfreak.
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 10:26 pm
Hey, guys check out the new items for Thursday’s update…
FVF… pls upload anything about the new mystery box…
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 10:27 pm
new stuff yukon. 34 by 34 and mystery gifts?!?!?!?
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 10:32 pm
I got farm cash from mystery gifts!!
I can’t unlock 24 x 24 though? It says to become a fan but I already am!?
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 10:38 pm
I like it how it is now, as a changing/rotating banner
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 11:02 pm
I don’t understand how Matt’s was selected. Creativity? Where?
Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 11:09 pm
Voted, but I have to say that I wish the rotating banners would stay. It’s just so cool seeing a different banner each time I pop on.

Posted on January 21st, 2010 at 11:44 pm
None of these really stand out to me like some of the others that I saw in rotation, but being in the entertainment business myself, where everything is so subjective, this is the way it is. I am just happy that FarmvilleFreak has these contests, to keep people inspired to be creative and to be able to share their creativity with us!
Posted on January 22nd, 2010 at 12:18 am
Bob! I want to see your’s.
Posted on January 22nd, 2010 at 12:55 am
Hey!
thanks for having my banner in the top 5! now thats cool!
the other banners are nice aswell, and im already glad i got voted for top 5!
now all i need is some votes! like a thousand more would be nice! haha but who cares about the votes!
but winning the contest would still be great though!
Ps. haha im not Rob the Whiner
must be someone else!
Posted on January 22nd, 2010 at 3:12 am
It’s sad really…I emailed them with questions about clarity and which file and never got a response. No offense to farmville freak, but this contest was completely unfair due to the lack of information that was handed out, because I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one who asked questions to the given email address and never had a response. :[ I checked every day, in my inbox and my junk….Nothing…
Posted on January 22nd, 2010 at 3:15 am
BTW, I really like #4…But…The background doesn’t look like it was their own, (don’t get me wrong I love it, but there were a lot of people who drew/created their backgrounds from scratch. I give them thumbs up), plus the tree is from farmtown….
Posted on January 22nd, 2010 at 5:44 am
heheheheh these are ridiculous!!! mine was far better………the reason i say that is not because i dont like to lose i say that because they are really ugly(especially #5 omg!) (except #4)
here is the best (mine):

Hmmmmm…. These look like Farmville banners. Farmville FREAKS should be edgier, sillier- these all look the same- farm scene, farm scene, farm scene. I rather liked the straight jacket entry. Those who visit this site are fanatics, not just casual players as the finalists portray. This was my favorite: http://i667.photobucket.com/albums/vv31/Zoya_D/FarmFreakBanner3SusanSchedin.jpg
Congratulations to the winner!
Posted on January 22nd, 2010 at 9:46 am

you must have many friends….or many proxy addresses…
cheater
Posted on January 22nd, 2010 at 10:42 am
love sean’s banner!!!
Posted on January 22nd, 2010 at 1:52 pm
love lorena’s, simple and cute, but how do you create those?
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 5:02 am
@Nicole – i totally agree with you on #4.
also, i really feel like i wasted my time because i don’t even know if they receive my submission in the first place.
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 1:15 pm
so basically FarmVille Freak earned free banners designs without any credits or pay to the creators or any permission from them and without copyrights. not ethical at all.
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 1:32 pm
@ hadas
they’re gonna be giving out farmville cash to the winner
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 1:37 pm
“we have decided to keep rotating banners on the FarmVille Freak home page”
this is what I mean.
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 1:38 pm
i think you should just keep rotating ALL of the banners, not just these 5.
but these did a good job!
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 2:05 pm
Lorena got my vote because it was so INVITING…dawn over the farm. However, I do agree with a post above that more edgy, funny, banners would have been nice, as this is the “freak” website, not the “official site”. Great job to everyone, though!
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 3:02 pm
FarmVille Freak Lorena’s Banner !!!
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 3:27 pm
i voted for matts i think its awesome
can you do me a lil favour and send me some mystery gifts sorry if this is wrong place to post but ty anyways good luck to you all
mystery gift pls http://apps.facebook.com/onthefarm/gifts.php?ref=neighborBar&giftRecipient=656629332
thank you if you send a mystery gift
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 3:35 pm
Love Lorena’s one, it is not easy to put togheter that background and Farmville images, well done.
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 3:59 pm
The thing that totally turned the last one off for me was that big cow with that obnoxious queer grin. I always thought that made the cow look like it was getting plowed from the rear in a perverse way. The other four are equal in quality, so I’m just going to roll a D4 and let God decide.
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 4:01 pm
@Pam86 (#21)
Rob the (former) whiner here. You must have missed Tim’s and my comments on a different post a few days ago. I will no longer be complaining about the complainers.
Also, I do not have a creative bone in my body, my banner would have just been a picture of a mastery sign or something.
Serenity now. Serenity now.
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 4:16 pm
i liked matts the best actually, ALL farmville i like that
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 4:28 pm
All the banners should feature nothing but white chickens because that’s all Farmville wants us to have.
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 4:32 pm
Yea same I like these but the one with all the crops was my fav… good job though
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 4:41 pm
I just love Lorenas banner
…she gots my vote!
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 5:43 pm
i would have picked entry 1 (sean) if the two characters weren’t both blonde with blue eyes.
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 6:02 pm
I want to play! All I get is the Out of Sync error.
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 6:02 pm
I love all the banners that didn’t make it. Great job guys!!!
Posted on January 23rd, 2010 at 10:47 pm
HI TO ALL FV FREAKS ,, LORENA’S BANNER IS THE BEST AND SEANS BANNER IS SO NOT ORGANIZED,,,,THE GUY HAS SERIOUS DECOR PROBLEMS
VOTE LORETTA NOW!!!
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 1:36 am
Why does the first one only have blonde hair blue eyed kids? Who made it? Hitler?
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 2:44 am
post on farmville freak on how to join on the farmville contest
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 6:29 am
How is the prize of FV$115 distributed? I can’t see any way to gift FV$ to my neighbors, but I’d like to. Tell me how, thanks!
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 7:38 am
number 4 it’s the best, very good color harmony, fantastic, someone is cheating this pool.
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 9:03 am
surely no.2 is the best
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 11:05 am
I like the use of the sun and light in #4. Good colors – it almost looks real.
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 11:31 am
#1 is the best of this group, but I saw better ones in the shuffle, MUCH better. The one with all the harvestable crops in a collage for one, that was good. And the one that just popped up on my banner with a barn in the middle, veggies on one side, flowers on another, that one was better than these picks as well.
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 12:37 pm
Olivia, I was wondering the same thing… LOL a little diversity is nice– Something about the farming and too much Blond hair starts to look a little creepy. I was disappointed that none of the finalist banners have any brown-skinned farmers on them. They are very pretty, though. Maybe we’ll see some better ideas in that area when the next contest comes around.
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 12:38 pm
Yeah I just counted, in the finalist banners there are 10 people and not a single one with anything but the lightest skin tone. But in my experience the folks who play the game are pretty diverse.
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
FarmerSuzie, I agree– they could be more edgy. I liked the one with the guy in the straight jacket a lot!
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 2:01 pm
it’s pretty obvious that someone is cheating this pool, not sure how they can do that but n.1 received a huge amount of votes in a very small time, that looks suspicious…. like someone was able to click-click-click many times… but it’s just a farmville contest so…peace and love!
Posted on January 24th, 2010 at 11:45 pm
This is going to be a CheatVille contest. Next time pls use a smarter poll system, or do some vote/IP analysis… anyway, like Eddi stated, it’s just a FV contest so… I better go back to my white chickens..
Posted on February 27th, 2010 at 11:08 pm
ok so all the banners are awesome but i think #2 should win cause its not too simple and not to crowded. and #4 is kinda boring and crowded because of the background. no offense to noone but good luck to all!
Posted on February 27th, 2010 at 11:11 pm
also! i think someone is cheating! you ccant get so many votes in such little time!
Posted on February 27th, 2010 at 11:13 pm
@ nicole! wow i like yours! i would have voted for yours great job!
Posted on April 8th, 2010 at 11:32 pm
i hope i get the farmville cash
Posted on April 17th, 2010 at 10:00 am
When are they going to announce the finalists! I’m waiting…
