I'm sure you have no plans to do it again, but I think your banner - which I really like - would be stronger if it read "High Street" instead of "High Street.org".

Taint,
Hmmmm, you're right. I can redo it relatively simply. Not today, though, as I'll be out of town. But soon. Thanks for weighing in.

Why not run a sort of dewar's profile banner for Fled with a bad picture and a bad font?

Well, he hasn't apologized yet, has he?
One would figure, just by sheer accident--presuming we were dealing with someone who was an utter neophyte to graphics--the aspect ratio would have to be close to tolerable at least SOME of the time. Reuse of the same aliased/jagged font is also something that can be "unlearned." No such attempts have been made. Fled's quieter than Princess Bullshit about his offerings. As such, I will simply delete them from now on.
It's taken long enough to come to this measure (months). There has been a willful avoidance of the learning curve, and HS doesn't brook that sort of shit. At any point along the road, some explanation could have been proffered, but as none is apparently forthcoming, these banners do not deserve to stand among the others as emblems of High Street. If there is some inherent logic or message, that High Street is half-assed and crappy, then message received...and banners deleted.*
*And I don't want shit from anybody about singling anyone out for removal. I delete enough of my own banners each week on account of that godsforesaken voting feature.

I should probably just delete it for cause, but a lesson needs to be learned here, and yours is Visual AIDS.

It's pretty hideous. I think I could have made it uglier, but I didn't want to spend more than 5 minutes on it.

I was disappointed that you didn't adequately stretch the image out to Fled's standards. As for which banners seem to be popular or unpopular, there's no accounting for individual tastes. Hell, I think that the sound of music banner is about the funniest banner on-site; But, the voting results seem to indicate that I'm the only one.

Both. The best banners here are often collaborations. Three examples:

Okay - I just did something immature, but I was pissed off, and rightly so. I submitted a banner this AM which has been arbitrarily deleted without discussion. That's crap. It may also be crap that I made the automatic assumption that pALe made the deletion, and I reacted by deleting his last two banners. That makes me as bad as whoever deleted my banner, so I apologize. Just the same, arbitrary deletion is not cool, and certainly contrary to whatever loose ethic guides the chaos here at High-Street.

Point of order. A banner might get removed from the rotation but nobody's deleting anything here. Sorry for the interruption. We resume our regularly scheduled beat down.

Which is imprimatur enough to tell you to leave the banners the fuck alone, Wilber. Unless you want to manage them all (the voting, the deletions, making new and decent ones on a regular basis), then stay out of my sandbox and NEVER delete anything of mine or anyone else's again. Yours was axed because it was mean-spirited and directed at just one member over one incident. Banners are not used to taunt other members, especially when their "purpose," such as it is, will fade. It didn't have the "playfulness" of "Wilber Is Canadian," or do I now have to go back and check to see what else you've deleted? It pains me to keep killing off Fled's attempts, but he's been deliberately vague about why they're as bad as they are, thus pays the price.
There does not have to be discussion over every banner that stays or goes. If you make a banner and it doesn't "stick," then there's not really more to go over about it. If you keep making banners that poke fun at single members, then they will be summarily removed as the last one was. And just so we're clear, I'm not defending Ptah because I find his discourse so fascinating. The image was fine, the tag was out of line. That said, if Ptah wants it back, that too can be arranged. Bottom line: The banners aren't yours to "act out" with as you please.

pENIx is someone I respect for many reasons, but he really is a net nazi. He wants us all to play by Chimere rules...and some of us simply won't. Sorry pENIx - some of us are testosterone driven, and some of us (you) have estrogen running through their veins. Maybe you should quit the Internet and take up knitting.
