    Looks like Mick's installing new banners now. Time to get our choice to him.

    Dimensions

    Sizing must be at least 1800 pixels wide. Depth needs to be adequate but otherwise not too important.

    Focal Area

    If you look at our current image you will notice that it's about 400 - 450 px deep - BUT of that only about 150 px is clearly visible with the remainder heavily clouded. Therefore the main focus of a successful image will be the top 150 px of a banner 1800 wide x 450-500 px deep.

    This means that 1968's Famous Player themes will need the heads and shoulders in the top 150 px to avoid partial decapitations.

    Note on Image Stability

    Mods are reporting image stability issues where full images posted revert to thumbnails after a couple of days or so rendering them unusable. Could be a cookie clearance problem but not definitely. The answer is to retain the original image and email it directly to [email protected] which should hold its original dimensions.

    Ok, I'll resurrect this one. I know there will be issues about choices of players but each of these represent the spirit that was and is QPR. Macca - legendary defender, Djibril - instinctive striker, Adel - genius midfielder and TF - a visionary with his business head screwed on at last.

    Oh - and we've got a plane too....take that, Citeh!

    I'd add Les Ferdinand and Bowles to the list - and could the heads be photoshopped onto the side of the plane?

    As long as the original's at least 1800 px and when the time comes can be emailed to the address given above, that or something very similar will do for for me.

    Anyone else likely to offer alternative visual contributions?

    Really need to keep the design as 'timeless' as poss. Should be as acceptable next year and the year after as this. Might not be able to change it very often.

    Agree, and I'd try and get Marsh in somewhere. He WAS QPR in the late 1960's/ early70's.

    Can you submit one by this time Tuesday? Want to at least get a poll going by then or add our choice to Maltese Mick's list. Can't hang about much longer.

    DT please do as legendary poster you will have the vision. I just need the photos/images and the consensus. The latter is hard.

    I may be wrong but didn't some supporters go dressed in ku klux klan attire, ie the coffin?

    Remember seeing some photos posted somewhere?

    'fraid so mate. Jolson and the black & white minstrels where regular variety entertainment back then. Fan dressed like that would've passed you by without much of a second look. Clearly needs a bit of an edit if it stands any chance of succeeding. Nice pic of the boys though.
