Really very nice! When I asked for icons, I still had making Splashes in mind. Your banner is perfect!

A little tall, perhaps, but I was happy with the outcome.

Steven, I love it. If too tall for a banner, would make a nifty splash!

Good to see this topic has been revived recently. I am rather busy right now but managed to find some time today to have a play with banners. I'm rather fixated on top hats for some weird reason and made a couple of Gimp Chat top hat brushes to use in the banners..

Thank you, great banners OMG, I had thought of a magician Wilbur with a wand replacing the paint brush and a hat. Lovely brushes.

RJKD - thank you; if you want the brushes let me know

All your banners are very beautiful guys, it's too bad our owner Omega ignores our request to put the newest ones in the rotation
All 4 if us (moderators) have requested this but no replies

Hi OMG, I would enjoy using your hat brushes, I'm sure many folk would if you post them to the resources page :tyspin

RJKD - top hat brushes + a couple more in resources. Hope they are OK.

I can understand that it's a big and time-consuming job to be an active admin, it would be nice if Omega could give one or more mod an upgrade to be able to do some of the work, such as adding more banners and whatever.

I agree and have even offered to take on the task of managing the banners.
However, there's been no reply from Omega about my offer.

Yep. I sent one 1 month ago and no response yet. Still in the outbox.

Were some new banners released? I have been seeing some banners today that I have never seen before. Maybe, I just missed them.

Actually i believe Tux had all the banners on a rotating schedule according to the months. The Christmas and holiday banners should play start of November. Halloween ones should be playing now though. So maybe i am wrong.

I thought they just randomly pick one from http://gimpchat.com/banners2/
maybe Tux overwrote the content of this folder when the time came.
