Yep, really nice footer! I like Sherlock in his magnifier. And I like that you can see all the cast.

I like banner 5 best

SusiGo · March 22, 2014 10:19 am

I also prefer the version with the wedding photo above. And the footer looks really good.

I've implimented the new footer!

I think it could probably manage to be a bit bigger? What d'you guys think?

TeeJay · March 27, 2014 2:09 pm

Yay! Looks good to me. Do you mean bigger as in both height and width, or bigger as in just wider but same height?

I like the new footer. Thank you for all the work! It could be a bit bigger though.

Totally missed this voting, but I like the new footer

Nice! Love it as footer… thanks again for a great one! And looks fine… although if debating, sure, height looks great for a footer, but maybe go wider, to spread out a bit, but just if you want to. But not have the picture be 'stretched' out? (rather, 'stretch' it from the middle with 'blank' space in between of that reddish black color)

Sherlock Holmes · March 27, 2014 9:09 pm

Yeah, it would be nice if it filled more of the bottom of the screen.

SpiralStaircase · March 27, 2014 9:10 pm

Looks fab!
Size-wise, it seems fine to me, but would look equally good a tad bigger.

Oh, but I wouldn't stretch the photo out if I made the banner wider. There's ways of doing that without compromising the ratio of the actual images.

Oh, of course! I'm familiar… loved playing with images, just not nearly as good at it. And figured you'd know exactly… was just clarifying words.

New banner is up!! Hope everyone likes it. I think it looks great!

tobeornot221b · March 28, 2014 8:32 pm

I like it!

SpiralStaircase · March 28, 2014 8:34 pm

It looks FAB!
I love how the wallpaper of the banner kinda merges with the wallpaper of the whole page...if ya know what I mean.

SilverMoonDragonB · March 28, 2014 8:45 pm

Wow! Both the footer and the banner look fantastic!

SusiGo · March 28, 2014 8:57 pm

This looks really good. Thank you, TeeJay.

TeeJay · March 28, 2014 9:01 pm

Yeah, I like how it displays on the forum too. Sweet!

Though I have this strange reloading issue, is that just me? It's like the banner reloads every time I click to a new page. Might have to do with the fact that it's hosted on Tinypic.com. Maybe Sherlock could try this link: http://www.virtual-dreams.org/stuff/BBCSherlockForumBanner.jpg
