The Banners

When I made the post two weeks ago asking for a new banner, I was a little nervous. I get a decent number of hits each day but you never know how people will react. I was worried that my readership might be a little more casual then I thought and not care about my banner. Luckily for me it turned out awesome.

The one I choose came from Tsunamee on the US-Firetree Server and you can see it above. I like the silhouette of the moonkin in the Moon and the color of the letters is great. At first I would have liked a change in the font, but when I saw the little moonkin head attached to the "G" in gray I was sold.

The other submissions were great also, and I really wish I had something to give you guys.

From William C. - I really liked the clean look of this one, and the brain in the moonkin is a nice play on the name.

From Cusper - Very nice and it was the first I received. A huge weight was lifted off my ego.

From Aphexdash - The only one to use a Horde image. Which is fine I don't discriminate.

From Christian G. - I really like the Horns on the letters.

Finally, Sarbakan says that he discovered my blog on a couple of days ago and didn't have time to come up with a banner but he did send me this picture that he uses as his signature.


Thank you again to everyone that made submissions. These were better then I hoped for and the choice was tough. Since Phae is closing her doors I have to take up some of her screenshot competitions.

    Sweet!

    Congratulations to the winner! The Moonkin featuring in the banner looks quite athletic and slim. What a wonderful creature of Elune!

    Great submissions all around! Hard choice. Cusper, the font is called Cretino. I was actually just trying to find one that was "similar" to his old one - wasn't until I'd already used that one, then looked again at the old banner that I realized... oh, that's the exact same font. DOH. oh well

    SQUAWK ON!

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with me and my readers. I ask just one small favor. Please identify yourself. I'm just asking for a name or tag so that I know who is posting.

I hate seeing the anonymous tag because I don't know if it is the same person that has commented before or some new reader.

You don't have to sigh up for anything. You can either sign your comment or click the Name/URL option. You don't have to put a URL in.

Thanks for the help, and thanks for reading.

PS: Comments on posts older then 2 weeks are moderated. I do this because I've gotten a lot of gold sellers commenting on those old posts to try and sell their stuff. This allows me to delete them quickly, without preventing people from commenting on my newer posts.
