@Exxcomm0n: Nice team there! Y'know, you could make something like that also for your signature block.... hmmm....

@All, keep chuggin', I can see possibilities for sprucing up this place in signature files, avatars, etc. too.

Next week I'm on vacation with limited Internet access.

@ winner

Gratzi for the kudos dude!

But I think it would be rather presumptuous of me to use such a "team" like that as my post footer as some might see me as equating myself to such free thinking individuals. ;)

But I think we should give homage to those who's ideas we work on so hard to crack or further.

Actually, freezers banner "gave" me the idea (it was more like stealing).

:D

No, the thread's not dead yet. Still waiting on Stefan to comment here and give a little more direction.

@ Yucca

Thanks man! I like yours too!

You tag line (The quest for freedom) is really good and portrays (hopefully) what membership here is all about.

Sorry, I have seen this movie many times and reading about this quest for the OU logo reminded me of this opening to scene 14.

I predict that giantkiller will win, should he put his hand to it.

Carry on.  (I like the banners bearing photos of the masters.)  :)

Did these pretty quick the other day just to give some other ideas.

But I still like Yuka's, more if you can fit the dotcom.

Hi all, new user here.. and graphic designer by trade so gave it a quick "spin"...

(http://www.anyplace.nl/pics/OverUnitylogo.jpg)

I hope the symbolism explains itself really, have some other ideas still.

Cheers,

Here's the latest with new space constraints for banner ONLY.

Keep throwing them ideas out kids. ;)

EDIT

The images could be changed pretty easy, and Shauberger might be better than Moray......

.....and the color for "Over" might be lightened a bit for better contrast.

It's a work in progress (like everything ;D ).

Banner by exxcomm0n
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I could do some flipped  out 3d flash thingy. But I won't! This banner here has all the top players, men who have been forgotten in the pervasive glitz of ignorance, whose ideas and lives have been excluded from all academia. The same and main reason the educated world is so damn dumm.
Add Schauberger in this line up too.
They might have been misplaced in the past but they own the future. And we all here know this. Let's keep them alive for the childrens sake. And if there are to add I would like to throw in Bearden, Bedini, Dollard, Lindeman, Muller as modern day heroes.

Scratch the cartoons. They represent selfish interests. Put these men back on the billboard of progress and lets help rewrite history. Shall we? Lets do this right. Isn't that what we are here for? For these forgotten geniuses. Semper Fi.

--giantkiller. That's my entry... Weedhoppers.

@ GK

Ummmmmm...thank you.;D
I have an idea to tack along side the one below that may allow a good many pioneers to be showcased for the homage they deserve.


@ all

For a little glitz (as someone invoking GK early in thread was hoping for I bet), here's an animated gif I hacked up in GIMP (took me all afternoon).

It's not as pretty, and pretty chunky @ 42Kb but I tried to incorporate some ideas of other participants entries.

Give it a look?

;D

P.S. Each layer (animation cell) can be modified for both image and duration.

I was inspired by your pioneer lineup so made my own pioneer banner.

BTW, I like the lightning strike GIF, very eyecatching!
