Forum banner

Post by dissolute »

This year, we're starting a rotating banner concept to the forum.
Every two months* we'll change the banner on a thematic basis.

To start with, we'll do banners based on the seasons (of the show, not the year :D ) so, starting today, we have a Series 1 banner with Steed and Dr Keel and text from the opening titles back in 1961.

Feel free to make suggestions for future themes.

I also have a question for you all - do you prefer the larger banners we've been using for the last year or so, or would you prefer to go back to the smaller ones? I've done both:

Excellent idea :) The smaller one looks sharper.

Yeah I like this idea also.

I'd prefer the bigger banner but I'm easy on either.:)

I like it!

The banners don't show up most of the time in my browser anyway.

A splash of colour added tp the banner today, based on the promotional material for the show at the time.

Banner with new colors very suitable for the overall design of the forum, on my view. :) I thought at first that it was good "a failure" in the my browser settings, which I did recently. :D
