See if you can clear the term "Peducator" from HKG for that banner...She claimed rights to that term in the IP thread.

By the way, the site's left nav bar is at aligned to the bottom rather than the top now.

Two of those last three were better than the other thread's offerings (Spongebob Lightdays, etc.). I've collected them for later [ab]use. It's really kinda tough to find sources with strong enough imagery that isn't (A) Already someone else's unique creation; (B) Too much of a meme to be symbolic of HS.org; or (C) Flat out porn and carnage. I think we're all nearing the High Street zeitgeist, but I wish there was a way to get a better bead on what most want (without some sappy poll, that is).
That aside, "peducator" was an instant classic, and credit will always go to HKgirl, but it's not really a free-standing word I'd like to have identified with a site I want other people to join. As with the avoidance of overt nudity, we want folks getting the "right wrong impression" about what we have here.

Doesn't pass muster unless it's 800x200px and says High-Street.Org. Care to try again while Ramona's image editor is still open?

Yeah, well I meant to leave the "High-Street.Org" line.... just suggesting a change to the first line...

I think this is a sufficient size to be added to the banner go round?
That's tasty! Reminds me of the NYC Teaching Fellow ads, except HSO Teaching Fellows get free room, board, and ankle monitors instead of thrown into the deepest shitholes of NYC and lame non-degrees from community colleges.

Did it already. Unfortunately, it looks like Zooks and Feisty are sending theirs from the future (bad timestamp, I uploaded mine after them). I don't know who this Ramona person is, but I could have sworn I said something earlier about turning his misfortune into a banner day for us.

I suck what?
I see Fnord's having a literalist evening. For better or worse, not everyone is suited to this medium. My favorite of the prior batch was Escher's top-hatted skull. I think that makes for an interesting theme (high street, swells, high times, top hats, death, etc...or so goes the free association). He makes an excellent, multipurpose mascot.
Not such a good favicon, tho: 
Here are some visual leftovers:

Shit. Much as I hate rulez myself, henceforth and forever more: anything larger than 800x200px will not pass muster. Too many folks are complaining it fucks their browser and their view pleasure.

It's been spruced up and resized ("fled_ban1.jpg"). For some reason it's appearing 13 hours ago, because the server's timestamp doesn't seem to be sticking with a true military clock (12 & 12, instead of 23:00, etc.). Maybe Fnord got anxious with the whole "Zulu time" thing.
