Eh, the banner is nice, but (a) it's too big (dimensional), and (b) way too many compression artifacts; should've saved it as a PNG or GIF.
My super-awesome website!

LO< you guys don't pick things up too easily do you? I JUST, JUST, JUST said that I was in the process of making adjustments to the size of the banner. as for compression artifacts, nothing I can help. I didn't specify a particular format, not realizing that people were going to be so damn critical.

My comments weren't meant to be critical. I was just pointing various things I noticed about the banner. It was not intended to be demeaning against your site or whoever created the banner.

Well you explained your last post, but failed to give me a new opinion of the banner (which I was hoping for since I'm now finished adjusting it).

Stephen, Kyle, I'm gladyou guys like it.  8)

I like it.  It definitely fits the website.  It it a touch blurry (the "Bringing you the best of today's Weather Channel" tagline)...but that can be fixed later down the line.

I personally would have chose an IS header, but that's just my personal opinion.

The person who made the banner is making an IS one, but he gave me this XL one to hold me over until he can finish the IS one.

Yes Thunder I know its blurry. First of all, I'm not blind. Second, its been said a dozen times already. Its blurry because of the format its in (jpeg).
