Unless you can think of a way to make the text look better on Option 1, I'm about set.

I kinda like it that big. Get to see more than you do with the mini version, though that ain't too bad either.

But hey, if you can think of one that goes along those lines but looks better, by all means feel free to show me. I'm no expert at this stuff.

Honestly, I prefer the second. Nietzsche's phrase works better alone than with the Bat-text. Not that they don't coincinde well enough with each other, of course.

It's from the same same scene, so it's not surprising, really.

And it's a modified version of the quote, by the by.

Real men use 72 pixels. :P

Anyways, I recommend BankGothic (or something like that). It's a good multipurpose font. It's the Latin quote in my sig.
Can you give it to anybody? Did a search and couldn't find it.

Honestly, between the red text and the red warwolf, too much read. Perhaps modify the warwolf a bit, give the twinkel in his eye a different color or maybe a different shade of red for the text.









But it's nice to see your in the mood to change banners :P

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

I can only assume that's to much red, because the amount of text is negligible :?:
If it's red, I agree.

Notice that I'm not one of the multitudes of people posting in the 'bad spelling' thread. :P

Yes sir.

I wanted to make fun of Roguie since I mentioned to him earlier about adding something to my banner. :wink: But the red is honestly too much.

Hm. Somehow that sounds just as unprofound as I suspected it would.

I like the red.

As to you and your banner, PSP8 is being bitchy about transparency, so...it's not coming along too well.

PSP8 has many kinds of red. Not for the Warwolf part, since that was an automatic thing, but for the text, yes.

I switched the text on top, left the text on bottom the same. Any better?

I think that, this way, it gives a certain amount of... intimidation, with the modified phrase at the bottom in a small size.
I prefer it this way too, not being so full of text, having only two images in it.
