Thanks. I'm not 100% happy with it. However, after compared to a few other failed attempts, this one looks perfect...hehe.

The XL V3 banner was much easier...which actually makes me wonder why the XL V3 is a simpler design than the XL V2, which as top bars quite similar to the IntelliSTAR.

For those interested...my username is derived from Tropical Storm Ernesto's Storm Alert fame. As most know, this was a ridiculous move by The Weather Channel, considering Ernesto was quite weak. The name is intended to be taken in a sarcastic tone.

Guys, I need your opinions. What do you like better on the SITE (not the forum). The banner that Matt made, which is up on the home page now, or the old one, which you can see on any other page? The reason I'm experimenting with the new banner is because if possible I want to make everything uniform, much like TWC Classics.

I like the older one (the one you got from a Proboards member). IMO, it matches better with the rest of the site's layout.

The buttons will be changing so don't take those into account.

Maybe someone here can make a banner that would look good on both the site and the forum? I really would like everything to be uniform. I just hate having two different banners.

Yeah, my thought exactly. I wanted to answer his question, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out exactly what it was he was asking!  :thinking:

I think he meant if you could make the site look like the format of the IntelliStar. That's my guess.

That's actually what I'm attempting to do. I think the banner actually looks good with any of the three proposed designs that I've asked you guys to vote on.

Yeah! It would look nice if you did that! Do we need anyone to help with getting the banner or you can do that on your own?

yeah i think the site would look kickass if there were an intellistar background to it. Can you add a different background in the forum too?

If its possible its probably a real pain in the fanny, thus not something I want to tackle right now.
