no, not really, but it would if had some trees in the backround or ground.

By the way sugarglider, the little man in there is just awesome, I keep telling myself. Gives me such a sense of freedom

Well, just look at the previous banner we had, with all the mountains and all. I don't like our current banner, but look at that one too. IT is still a landscape, but the horizon isn't a straight horizontal line... the line is broken up by physical land features.

Yes it is a landscape, and the horizon indeed isn't a straight line. But the view is not coming from above, which means the viewer is confined to earth. On sugarglider's avatar, I get a flying sensation whenever I look at it. This doesn't happen with the current banner, though.

the current banner makes me feel like im on the ground, and it doesnt have much color.

**wasup** · 09-24-2007 10:02 PM

"it doesn't have much color" Are you kidding? It's saturated to the extreme.

**Sugarglider11** · 09-24-2007 11:36 PM

all it is is blue, I mean it doesnt have any color other than blue.

I agree, i think the forum is fine as it is at the moment, if there was going to be a change it would have happened by now.

why cant we just have a poll

my banner, born to kills banners, other banners, and a keep the banner the same.

**Goldney** · 10-12-2007 07:04 PM

I like the current banner. Why the change?

**Sugarglider11** · 10-13-2007 12:24 AM

Why dont you see what the other members want

I really dont care, our current banner is ok, but we can come up with a better one

**Adrenaline Junkie** · 10-13-2007 01:18 PM

No offence, but the ones that have been made so far haven't really captured what DV is, i mean the one we have at the moment just fits well for some reason. With the colour schemes aswell it just works. Unless i see a really impressive one i will continue to like the one we already have.

**Sugarglider11** · 10-13-2007 02:01 PM

what about the animated flash ones, those were really good.

**Adrenaline Junkie** · 10-13-2007 05:45 PM

They were okay, but even still, they were posted ages ago but nothing has changed, it seems that the majority is happy with the way things look currently.

**Merlock** · 11-11-2007 12:36 PM

Here's one for fans of The 4400, heh.

Not sure what inspired me for it, it's not particularly even a site header banner (but I suppose could be turned into one the same way our current banner is fleshed out into a consistent colour). Just one of those thoughts that comes into my mind at random times and throws me into Photoshop.

i loooove the daytime one. i think it's perfect except for what's already been said (obscured text, cloud speed)

the color in the night banner is intimidating: vibrant but dark. the background, i mean. maybe soften it up a bit?
