I see Codegolf is running ads for its sandbox.
Why don’t we do that?
If making ads, note that the required dimensions are 600x500 px (or 300x250).

1$\begingroup$ I love that idea and would love to see ads that encourage new users to give it a try! I am not very creative, but maybe I will give it a try later... $\endgroup$– SecespitusCommented Jun 30, 2017 at 7:55

$\begingroup$ I'm thinking about something like "Don't know how to ask? Fix your bugs in the Sandbox!" and then a giant insect sitting in a Sandbox with someone attaching a band-aid to its wing. Though the term "bugs" might be too far away from WorldBuilding and would be better on SO, PPCG or similar sites. $\endgroup$– SecespitusCommented Jun 30, 2017 at 8:13

1$\begingroup$ Yeah... Just posting a few ideas in the comments in case someone creative reads them and takes them as a starting point. Maybe a confused construction worker looking at a half-done planet like this one with a text like "Don't know how to ask? Check out the Sandbox!"? (... I'll stop with the ideas for now.) $\endgroup$– SecespitusCommented Jun 30, 2017 at 8:21

$\begingroup$ Probably because no one made one. :-) Yeah, if people work out an ad concept and create the ad, by all means add it to the post! $\endgroup$– Monica Cellio ModCommented Jun 30, 2017 at 16:05

1$\begingroup$ Having a sandcastle in construction would fit well. $\endgroup$– VincentCommented Jun 30, 2017 at 16:08

$\begingroup$ I wish there was a way to post a bounty for meta questions. This one deserves it. By the way, what are the graphic requirements? A large box with small text is awful easy to create. $\endgroup$– JBHCommented May 16, 2018 at 5:15

$\begingroup$ I like @Vincent 's idea quite a bit. I get the feeling this is just a thing where people post different ideas and vote on them below, but I might steal this one and make a quick mockup when I get home. $\endgroup$– PleiadesCommented May 16, 2018 at 18:55

$\begingroup$ Hey Renan, you should post this in the Community Promotion Ads for 2018. We need to raise awareness of the sandbox, and this is a great ad. $\endgroup$– GryphonCommented Aug 10, 2018 at 17:23

$\begingroup$ @Gryphon thanks, I'll do it when I get home later :) $\endgroup$ Commented Aug 10, 2018 at 21:05

$\begingroup$ "Question" is spelt wrong, but this is my favourite of the three tbh. $\endgroup$– F1KrazyCommented May 16, 2018 at 10:22

3$\begingroup$ You should have asked in the sandbox before posting this qustion. Just to proof read it. $\endgroup$– VincentCommented May 16, 2018 at 16:58

$\begingroup$ The only real downside to this image (and the other too) it that the text is missing anti-aliasing and looks jagged. $\endgroup$– VincentCommented May 19, 2018 at 15:17
