    Love this one, worried it might look too busy actually on the forum though. Anyone you could show it like.. actually on the forum like others have?

    Saylor being in the Adidas kit bothers me, </pickybastard>

    Ben Arfas arm looks huge?! <yikes>

    No idea, didn't do anything to it. Looks normal to me :huh:

    It's actually pretty weird how often he runs with one arm up and one down. If you search him on google images he's doing it all over the place <laugh>.

    That can be doctored quite easily tbh - not worth it yet if it's not going to be used though?
    There's always an option of subbing Jonas for Davide if he's half decent (lol)
    and/or pictured in a toon top sometime soon.

    Skalpel's one is great and i like it a lot although I keep thinking of Planet of the Apes
    every time I see HBA for some reason?

    I don't really see the bridges in the background no matter how many times I look at it
    - why not just leave them off - the toonrays are fine!

    <laugh> It looks the same width as his head!

    I know it can be changed, just thought I'd point out that if he was in a puma kit I might vote for it <whistle>

    I'm happy with Jonas being there - he has been here for 3 years, if you put Santon there instead we'd have three players (Santon, Cabaye and Benny) who've played about 10 games at most between them!

    Another radical idea - how about featuring Best - he's possibly going to be the best striker we've got until January?

    I inserted mine into the forum like the others and the dimensions are messed up.
    Tomorrow I'm gonna work on getting it fixed, would really make it easier if someone could give me some dimensions I could use because I'm a total noob.

    Might set my current one on a larger background and only increase the actual image about 25%. I don't know, trial and error.

    Edit: Just re-read Skalpels post, I'll use his dimensions as a template.

    So, I'll have it round about this size,
    http://i.imgur.com/sHzprh.jpg

    and stick that on a feathered background so it fills out the top of the page. Now it's just the case of what type of background will blend...

    That's far too narrow, for me at least (screen is 1920 pixels wide). Also it looks like it's been distorted when you've resized it?

    The current banner has a pixel size of 1920 x 375. However only around 1820 x 310 are actually the picture. The rest is just white borders. There should only be top, left and right borders (no bottom border). The picture should be centered within the left and right borders.

    However you may be able to increase the top border size because the current banner has each players head cut off. (Edit: Actually they may only be getting cut off due to my screen size).

    Hope that makes sense and helps :D.

    I haven't distorted any of it.

    And like I said, I'm going to put it onto a feathered background to fill out the space instead of resizing it to the extreme so the resolution is terrible.
