I really like your banner, Raven...so very cool.

Did you make it yourself, or was it Abe Babe/Alcar/whoever?

It's one of the better banners I've seen. I would even venture say it's one of the best on the site...

I like the use of dark, cool colors and Mullock's/slig's spooky red eyes. Kudos to whoever made it.

Though I think its over the size limit in width, I think you should be fine. Having a large heigth is what gets me annoyed.

BTW, looks great.

RavenMM....you can see your banner, right? On my comp, all I see is an X where your banner should be, but when I put the address in my browser, it's fine. I hope it's working for you. Anyway, you can post up your smaller banner and I'll host it for you.

It's a cool banner, you've really got some talent. And I'm sure there would be a lot of people ready to hire you to make their banners! Excellent colour contrasts and shades, as well as the board room off-set in the background!

What does my banner look like?

Instead of creating multiple thread in Off-Topic Discussion, please use this thread which I've also merged with a previous thread of the same subject.

I'm also moving this, as Forum Suggestions & Help is the proper forum for these things.

Geocities don't allow offsite hosting. You'll need to find another host.

I was about to say you could get the official fonts from Oddworld-Web, but it looks like Oddipus beat me to it.

You have to copy the font file once you've downloaded it, then you must paste the font file directly into the Fonts folder found usually in the settings of your computer.

Oddguy I just noticed Zach Roy Wilson has a similar banner to yours lol...

I like the banner with the mines and the flying sligs. The colours work better with the "Industrial" theme of the forums (unless you use "Native")
