Forum banner image needed

Right then guys, I need a 400x70 banner image that will be located at the top right of this forum.

My image editing skills are terrible at the moment, so any help with this would eb greatly appreciated.

What I'd like is something that kind of blends a number of images together such as this

Image

However it would be really cool to incorporate images such as :

Badgers all in a jeep in UT2004
The "soon to be" :D 5punkinator
COD players possibly sitting on a roof together
CS:S dead bodies in a pile, with one of nickface's spray tags on the wall behind them etc.

Well hopefully you get the idea, and there should be a fair few images posted on this board already that you might be able to get started with.

It's quite a small height (70 pixels), which is why I'm finding it dead hard to optimise any of my attempts so that they're at least viewable.

If you need to play around with the width, then feel free to do so, because basically it will just replace this image, so if it could belnd in with the blue background that would be great.

I bet it would be best if we just all sorta pooled screenshots and the l337est shopper (read: most willing) puts them together.

When I get back from class, I'll try to get a CS:S image to add to said pool :)

The image “http://www.hairy-arse.com/5punkBanner.png” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

:shock:

Here's what I go so far, more may come soon enough.

I think the Furtive tags turned out better than the CDC

haha, number 6 and 39 are my favourites :lol:

mrbobbins : I shall add your banner to the site already, as that's definitely along the lines of what I'd like, but I'd like to see more of them still coming in :wink:

Come to think of it, what do you guys think of randomly generating a different banner image on refreshing the index, or possibly alternating each day?

Excellent idea, like on 4rthur, i think it would work well, although they should probably all be the same size for nice looking uniformity



Edit: Hmm the blue bit doesn't match up?!?, might have to have a redo.

Edit2: Looking at home in Firefox it's alright, just my caca work IE pc showing the colours wrong. Bloody thing, it crashed today when I opened an email, 'ooh no I dont think i can do that, too much processing power invloved I think i'll give you the BSOD for a bit and see if you leave me alone'. Ahem.. sorry, carry on

Is there a use for any other specific CS:Source tag pictures? I figured the CDC and the Furitive were the ones that were most descriptied of the b3taness.

I could take some EVE screenies if you want?

The 5punkinator is almost done (largely thanks to a large fab-donation), so I could get some of that :)
