I was just checking the "link to us" section for banners to put on my own webpage as a link to Armorama, but the one that I liked felt kinda outdated. It said 4500+ members. Ok, if you aren't to picky, 7000 is 4500+, but anyway.
So, is there any photoshop wizard that could make some new ones???
Just a thought.

I'll see what I can do. I have been playing around with PhotoShop for a year or so and have made numerous items including two medals for campaigns as well as my own banner (my most notable contributions to the site). With finals coming up in two weeks, it will not have too much time, but contrary to the popular belief of my friends, I do have a life outside of school, so I should have so time within the next week.

Here is one I modified.
It is just a modernized version of the old one. I updated the statistics for it and with his kind permission, added riversphynxz's 1/72 Bradley that is OnDisplay right now. I am going to find out who to talk with to make this an official banner. Until then I'd wait on using it.

I have updated the gallery so that 60 pixel high images can be uploaded. I ran into that trouble today.
I would still prefer however that banners be hosted off-site so we don't tax the server, etc.
Nice job btw. I have that file in a psd format and will probably update it this weekend. But definately keep the ideas coming.
Cheers,

In response to this I have one question:
When you say "off-site" do you have any suggestions as to where could put them? Would the MSN group site be a good idea?
Thanks for the advice. I am thinking up of a couple, but finals week (one could argue it should be renamed finals month) is in the next week or two, so don't expect much.

Yes. As a matter of fact there is a group album setup there for just that. This way you don't have to have an album of your own (because sometimes we hit the max and non are available). So (for everyone) don't create your own album just to upload 1 banner...it's a waste.

You could also upload to Photobucket.
I think they allow you to keep up to 50Mb of pictures. Which is a lot when you consider that most pics are roundabout the 100Kb mark
