You're just about the only one who seems to feel this way, and it is rather inexplicable too. It's a great shot, well framed and fits with the site extremely well. I doubt it'll stay forever, but I haven't seen anything yet that makes me want to replace it.

Perhaps we could use something Halloween'esque, given that we're in October now.

I don't mind that specific banner, but I haven't seen the film and it means absolutely nothing to me. I'd hate for any single banner to be on forever.

Guys, I've discovered that going on about my problems with BSG is one of my favorite things to do. If you recorded and cut down the conversations I've had and rants I've gone on, you could probably sell it as a six-hour audio lecture series.

Still more or less like the show, though.

As amusing as the Karate Kid one is, if I have to look at Will Smith's annoying little kid every time I come here, I may have to find a new place to hang. However, I'm all for the Yogi Bear 3D one if the title Yogi Bear 3D is worked into the banner.

I can code the random banner generator that would pick from a pool every time the page is refreshed or navigated to a new page.

If people want it, I'll do it soon.

I don't see a problem with it.

It would be pretty cool, especially if every quality banner in this thread were thrown into the mix.

I think that'd be pretty cool, indeed! There've been a lot of good banners posted in here the last three years.

I was thinking about banners I wanted to make, and then these happened:

EDIT:
Perhaps a better version of the Outrage banner.

I like the idea of a program changing the banner once a day, but not every visit. However the site is so graphics light that I assume this wouldn't slow download.


Posting these if anyone wants to play with them for a possible banner.

Nice!

I support the idea of changing the banner once a day.

Once a day would be cool.

Aye, rotating banner every day is a radical idea.
