Huge thanks to all the people who added thoughts & suggestions in the banner design thread in the Graphics section, but most of all to Fille for the font and - especially - to Shan for the final finished version!
I think this kinda reflects where we are as a forum right now - lost in the jungle! ;D

And just for Shan - a new background colour, too!
I await the usual screams of hatred from all & sundry ;D

The banner looks nice. We're off to a fresh start for the year now.  Thanks to Shan and Fille for all of their contributions. They've outdone themselves, I think. |

*Screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaammmm!!!!!!!!!!*
Is that good enough? If not I can make it louder. ;D
Softer, softer. Way to bright for the banner.
The reason I wanted to try a jungle background was at times I've felt like I was lost in a jungle around here. ;D

Lots better green. Wasn't sure I could live with the other one. Way to bright. Made the banner look sick too. |

Probably because I had almost nothing to do with it, Cleg ;D

As usual, my computer isn't displaying it for some reason. I loathe the background color though.

I think your computer is not displaying the background either, V. I used an image to get a decent colour...

Much better banner, much better Bg color. Now if only the light blue would change, I'd be a happy man.  |

Either I'm freaking out, or I'm seeing green... in a good way! ;D I like the green too, and I agree with Shan: if you've been on the forum for long bouts at a time, the bright bg did burn at your eyes some. Killerzzz |

The new green is kinda restful, isn't it? I must admit I like it, so it's likely to hang around a while... Same with the banner. Our last banner was great (Terrific work by Janggut) but definitely too 'comic related' for where the site is now at. I'd hazard a guess that the majority of our members now are not comic readers, and this is a nice neutral image that will, I hope, help take us to the next level as a site |

I was once a comic reader--in the 50s and early 60s. I remember the first issues of fantastic 4, spiderman, hulk, x men, green lantern and the Flash. I also particularly liked a line of Scifi horror comics whose titles I don't recall.

Haha, a half forum makeover... *In for a change to the teal too, while we're at it... Hint, hint* ;D I like the new banner though. |

If you change the teal, please make the change easy on the eyes--not like what you had before. Thank you.

Teal was the colour I got the least complaints over, actually...

If teal and white yes... Two alternatives where teal was the one pepole could stand if necessary...
