I bet he thinks this thread is about him...

That's a song btw.

This thread is about the new header banner at the top of the page that just went live.

It sucks.

Take it down!

DOWN WITH BANNERS!

This site is starting to look like a "soju pancake".

Having Dave state at me is really starting to freak me out. I need another site I think.

Yes. Now when you post you're subjected to him staring down at you, all the time, kinda like Big Brother. It's freaking me out, man.

I agree, the header is extremely annoying. Seems like people can't make an esl/efl resource without pasting their name and face all over it.

Whoops, I forgot today is Talk Like an Australian Day. Arrr.

My only problem with it is that I have to scroll down every time I open a forum or thread. Other than that, having color at the top of an otherwise drab forum is nice.

Actually I think it's talk like a pirate day.

As for the banner itself I am fine with it, but it really needs to be smaller. On my screen it takes up about 1/3 of the screen.

We be most unimpressed Pirates, be us! That be MY SHTICK, th' [bold][color=darkblue]<Poster's Name>[/bold][ /color]!!!!

[/pirate talk]

Some people have griped about the text being reduced to a painfully small size. That I notice absolutely no difference whatsoever suggests to me that I've been reading at this allegedly-newly-reduced size all along. I sometimes strain ever so slightly to read at this size, but I'm pretty much acclimated to it now. And so it's rather heartening in a way to hear other posters suddenly pissing & moaning about the "new" painfully small text size. Assures me that my eyesight is in fact not worsening. Your yelps of pain are a pleasure to me. Yay!

But the massive banner at the top, takes up half a page? Christ, that's gotta go.
