Looking for AW banners

acelticdream said:

I'm looking for a 125x125 and/or 468x60 AbsoluteWrite banners to add to my blog (template has space for both banner sizes).

Hoping maybe someone here could whip up a banner or two. =)

Would you wait until I can pass this by MacAllister? If she OKs it, I can generate the banners.

In the meantime, link away, and thanks very much for liking us enough to want to have a banner !

AW Admin, can I just ask if you managed to sort any banners for this forum? I have one for AbsoluteWrite, but I was wondering if you had one for here? I can use standard buttons etc on the website, but they're, well, pretty standard.

I was so hoping someone was in need of a mod to ban someone. I say I hate it when someone needs to be banned, but sometimes it's educational.

I'm commenting because I want to know the outcome of this, and also because i'm hoping ChrisP finds someone to ban...if only for educational purposes.

Possibly not the best time to bring ourselves to his attention?
No sense getting a starring role in any PSAs he's planning.

No, I don't have any modly powers. I hope Mac and them never do let me wield the ban hammer. I'd drop it on my foot and *poof!* four years and 9722 posts of my life GONE!

*twirls ban-hammer about like I'm a cheerleader*

I could always show you what it's like, Chris.

*evil grin*

The issue is not the artwork, I have that, it's one of policy, and Mac is still ruminating.

I'll nudge her, and thanks for your patience.

Thanks, Medievalist.

If someone wants to use a version of one of those, or start with one of them to make a forum badge for AWer's blogs and such, I certainly have no objection.

Excellent. Thank you, Mac. It was a banner for the AW forum itself that I was after. I have one of the ones above on my website already, but I also wanted a different banner to lead straight to the forum itself.

Can I just check: are you trusting the individual AWer to Gimp-it up a little to set it apart a little from the original, or would you prefer we beg Med, or an artistic AWer in the cover art forum ask a member to manipulate the original slightly and provide one for everyone to use? I honestly have no issue with begging: my Gimping skills are useless.

MacAllister said:

I think if a handy and artistic AWer wanted to volunteer to patch together a forum version and post it here for people to use, that'd be terrific!

Otherwise, I'll try to put one together myself in the next few days.

Thank you, Mac! That would be really great. I'll go put a link in the art section to this thread to see if anyone would kindly step in before you feel you have to.

I don't mind editing these to get them right for you Mac. Here are some options for you:

Mac (or AW Admin), *winces 'cause she knows both ladies are really busy*, am I okay just to choose one of the above banners off Gale, or would you prefer to?

Thank you, Mac.

Gale, I hope you don't mind if I go for this one (and thank you for doing it ):

Works for me. Glad I could contribute something useful.

Wow Gale! Very cool that you put those together. A great service to AW.

If I ever get back to my blog I'll add one of those.
