Custom Banner Service
 
Hi bannerless people!

This is where your custom banners will be "hosted". Please do not request your banners in this thread however, this is a collection point. For custom banners, PM me with your request, detailing what you want, and how you want it. When its finished, I will post it here and send you a PM.

Thanks alot.

Reese

First banner is for Cobra_69. Enjoy!

*Moves to FS&F*

EDIT: Anyways, for banner hosting, can't a new topic just be made and then moved to Necrum? Tis' what I did.

Actually Dave, we would prefer that banners are hosted on a server, and not actually on the OWForums database.

Using the database attachments in banners, will cause the database to increase it's load emensly, as it has to perform two queries per download, which means EVERYTIME it is viewed/downloaded.

The way that myself and Kristen use is the prefered way, even though it is on the same server, downloading them via the file system method saves us in the end.

Oh, and, you naughty boy Dave! How could you make it a banner in an attachment! :p

I can safely say that my awesome sig that is over 200% that of yours is worth the extra load.

Since I don't know how to do the rest of that jack stuff (most likely I can't do it anyways:p), I'll let you take the liberty of hosting my baner.

You'll have to click on the link and copy the image location in the browser location bar... As I think it will break in vBulletin.

It has just occured to me that it might help considerably if I actually tell Cobra_69 that I have done his sig and its being hosted here.:D
Rather than just leaving it for him to find. :D
D'oh!

PA: I have already sent you an email about that, so you shouldn't have to worry about it anymore, but please don't post that kinda crap somewhere it doesn't belong...
