TreeCo, now why'd you go and say something like that? you'll just encourage them.

I can see by your black and white photo that you are a man of taste.

I'm outta here dudes, that banner is searing my eyeballs and giving me a migraine.

Iorek · 5th February 2007, 12:45 PM

Ok, I have decided that it is ok for y'all to keep your bloody banner.

Ekka · 5th February 2007, 02:36 PM

Thanks.

But it doesn't mean you cannot suggest others however pouting and running away isn't a solution is it?

So that's what this thread is...

The lightning did look a little severe, didn't it.

This should be fun.

Shorter may be better. Looks like 800 pixels would be good.

Only 750?

I like the brighter ones better than the darker ones.

If there is the URL, should it be without a slash / at the end for a cleaner look?

I'm not too adept with transparent, but instead of a solid square image, what do you think of a composite image with transparency around the text and smaller image shapes?

I think you can make one up and show us what you mean. lol

I have a confession to make .... I paid Krowdon the $100 as we have been using it long enough and nobody has really complained.

But now they might

Rotax Robert · 2nd March 2007, 07:01 AM

For what its worth, I like the banner we have now.

I don't like the electricity part. Maybe its because lightning is often associated with tree damage and forest fires.

Some blue sky would be nice. How about something with a blue sky, and have it fade off at the edges into a blue background (changing the page background too)

Nice banner. Is that Eucalyptus citradora (lemon gum euc.) (sorry I always have to ask the species ha, ha!)

And the one your thinking of mike is now also known by the genus Corymbia instead of Eucalyptus. Being Corymbia citriodora or Lemon Scented Gum.

Ok I'm only posting this for clarity, and really don't want to enter into the dispute over which genus should be used.

I really have no axe to grind and use both in reports (syn).

Explaining why the genus Corymbia came about http://www.anbg.gov.au/projects/eucalypts/corymbia.html

And the Australian National Herbarium position http://www.anbg.gov.au/projects/euca...roduction.html

Have a bit of a hunt around the site there's lots of interesting short papers and great links in there.http://www.anbg.gov.au/cpbr/index.html
