It's kind of annoying how all the Ares forums have the same banner in the top-left corner there. Posted Image

Perhaps we should have a different one for Trash Talk. Here's one I whipped up in Photoshop:

(Was sort of hard to do, I had to 'fake' the background there, but...)

Thoughts on the idea?

It needs to be a lot frutier if we want to attract any tourists.

I don't mind it, but we should go a bit farther away from the standard Ares banner, maybe one containing a squid.

If you can agree on a banner (and I think there should be a few to pick from, just for diversity), I'll raise the matter with the management.

Oh, and - pretty as the squid might be, I don't think something quite that random is appropriate.

What's quite scary is that I was just about to suggest something like this.

I like the first one best.

Interesting, but make it smaller and put "Ares" somewhere. Just a suggestion. Posted Image

It's also the wrong size. Note the size of the banner, people. Admiral Dennis knows what he's doing.

And yes, it really is a very pretty squid, I have to agree. But there's more to Trash Talk than squid, you know.

I would bet that very few people actually know what the squid means. It would also give people a better idea of what the board is about then the description on the forum list page. It shows the randomness in a subtle way.

The squid-banner looks really nice. If it's not right, cannot we then use that old "I love it, because it's trash" man?

I do.

I think we need to vote on which one should (upon approval) become the new baner. Should a new topic be started, or the voting take place here?
