But why bother wasting an honorific on someone who obviously doesn't deserve one?

The text concentrated in the upper left like that throws the visual balance of the pictuer off-kilter, I think.

I think so too, maybe trying to lighten the gun portion abit to make it the focal point and immediately attract the eye there to the gun barrel, or even the clones' eyes. Right now it kinda makes your eye wander at first glance. (Brought to you by... The Advocacy Group for the rule of thirds)

Meant to be humourous not tight assed about design.

I like the Stormtrooper pic, but would move the text along the bottom.

Too bad there wasn't one of Darth Vader totally ripping someone apart, that would be a good ban pic

"Know you know the power of the Dark Side"

like it.

Of course, now you also need a third one with Samuel L. Jackson so that you can use the Motherfucker.

Maybe something from Pulp Fiction, but with Jedi Mace looking all pissed or something.

Suggestion: maybe you could use something from the mace vs palps scene. I was thinking when he was standing over palps and audience is looking up at mace while mace has his lightsaber pointed at the screen. just a thought...

Has the same one, two punch as the original "It's time/MoFo", but is still utterly dispassionate, as befitting the image.

Ooh, that's good.

"I think it's time for you to leave." That really is awesome.

Except that Mace is about to get horribly 0wned in that scene. Clonetroopers may die in battle, but the Corps lives on. Mace Windu, however ... he just died.

With the third picture, if you add "Now." at the bottom, with no flaming red hate embellishing, that should work great. make the "Now." bigger for emphasis, but if there's any sense of emotion in it, the picture behind the text looses a lot of its effect.

So, with the "Now." in plain(ish) text at the bottom, you keep the detachedness and methodical coldness of the clonetrooper, and there's an ending that's lacking in hte third picture.

...and whatever happened to the "You have been terminated" ban picture?

does this mean that we get to refer to bannings as "order 66"?

If I may make one minor suggestion...

Saying it out loud, and seeing what it sounds like... I find that by adding:
"I think" seemes to make the statment a bit more forcefull.

Since this seems more of a 'Calm and composed' ban pic as opposed to the wonderfully forceful "EXTERMINATE HIM!" Galvatron image. This isn't an angery Mob coming down, or the murdeous hands of the Hoursmen, this is simply the men in charge sending away someone no longer needed.

Theres no explosions in the trooper image, nor fire. Just a gun and the words:

"I think it's time for you to leave."

I would imagine adding the "I think" to it adds a certain aire of "I don't care what YOU think, I"M in charge and I think it's time for you to go."

My 0.02 cents.

but but but... it would look so badarse though. Anyway just after that pic the clones get owned by a kid. Its at least worth a try.

I must say I stand with the anti "motherfucker" people it seems out of place with clonetroopers.

Great ban pic. Hope to see it in use from time to time!

that kid who kills the clones is Lucas' son.

The purple "It's time for you to leave" is a bit cluttered with the texture IMO. You may want to take it a bit easy on the effects for the sake of legibility.

But that's just my $.02.
