We have had the same boring Red letters at the top of the forum. It is time we get something new that looks better. Keep in mind while making this it should follow that same basic pattern as the forum or atleast look good with the forum style and colors. A really dark black picture wont look very nice on a blue grey forum. Try to keep that in mind.

Make the banner wide enough to fit the top of the forum from side to side but not very tall. We dont want to have to scroll to much to start using the forum.

We already got one. Henda made a nice forum banner for the "Dark" forum scheme. Just make it the default. It looks great.

IMO his pic is awesome but to big so I wont allow it on default. Plus it dont really match with the theme of this style. Im hoping some people post a few choices.

I'll try it but I need more pictures of CT and zombies first...I have a bunch of zombie fonts and I'd like to put the CT and zombies behind the text.

Looking good. I really like the "ZombieMod.com"? forum banner, so anything close to looking like that would be kick ass.

Dude, tight logo, loving it. But could you make the human a CT instead of a terrorist please? Like, a SEAL or SAS?

Thank you for the picture. As you can see we have decided to use it for now. I like the idea. It is much better then the old one but I would like to see what else you can put together. I like the Idea of some kind of CT instead of T. Also the current zombie and guy are kinda blurry.

Please anyone who can make good pictures please submit something so we can have a few choices.

If I wasn't too lazy to go find images for a banner i'd make one. But I don't even have a sig anymore because i'm lazy and lost most of my PSP and PS stuff. :]

I like them. The first one is better because it draws more attention to the text itself, rather than the small renders. Well done.

thanks guys. that is a combination of a 3d render and photoshop. I made the words zombie murder in 3d, and took screenshots for the players, then edited them together in photoshop.

what program did you use for the 32 render?

xara?

I actually used Swift3D. It is a modeling program that can be used with flash to have 3d animations, but works great as a stand alone editor. They even have a plugin for 3D Studio Max that lets you export your models to it. I used the same model for my sig, but I used the cartoon ink outlines setting for it.
