Ok, I told myself I was going to try only because I didn't think i had the time...but I caved and did one anyway I wen't with a green and gold just to be different, and I used all the Chosen Figs(Well, the spike fig wasn't really but his character was a big part of it ) P.S. Lior Knight, I really hope you don't mind me using the moon in my banner. I just thought it was missing something and a moon seemed to be a great idea, its just you were already using them... definately my favourite of all banners so far. it just screams buffy way to go Wayne

Andrew, awesome banner! Very colorful and eye-catching. Though, I think you should add Dawn as well. Here is the "fixed" version of my previous layout: 1 + 2 feature different fonts while 3 & 4 are variations of #2.

I really like Insanity's banner but the tag line at the bottom is a bit hard to read with my old eyes.

Insanity, I'm definitely loving yours! If you could add just a slight border to it (I'm talking like a barely there little thing so it kind of looks embossed) it would be perfect and the figures being cut off would be okay.
I also think if you could increase the bottom font a little bit or maybe make it a tad bigger it would be just grand!
LK, those are all really nice variations! I'm really torn between yours and Insanity's!

Flobbo, I'm not sure if this is what you meant by embossed (since embossing means something like this in my graphic design experiences), but I added a one pixel black border, so let me know what you think! I increased the shadow on the bottom text and also upped the font. I think it should be easier to read now I also made a version with Dawn, but I'm not sure it looked as well as the other, oh, and I made it a tad bit darker. Without Dawn: With Dawn: I also did some fooling around with the shadowing on the "BtVSFigs Forum" part, so do you guys think the darker shadow looks better? Or shall I keep the lighter version?

I like version 3 there with Dawn and the darker shadow on the logo. Embossing can be done with Photoshop under the Layer Style menu Plain Embossed

wow Insanity , that is really great ! it would be cool it you could make an Angel banner on the Angel figures section and use Lior Knight's on the Buffy section or the one that doesn't get used so then we can still see it every day....

OK I really like the first version of Insanity's banner on this page without Dawn, it just looks to cramped with her in there. Or even if you switched Dawn and Spike around it might not look as cramped. But hey this is just my opinion.

For some reason, Dawn's face scares me on that figure. Nothing about the banner, just the figure. That's a pretty big smile.
