    This thread and how you vote will determine which banner becomes Forge Hub's next! This is a private vote, you will not know the entrants names until the vote concludes.

    This is a private vote, if you know who made which banner, do not comment with his name in the thread. It will constitute an immediate demotion, or you will be moved to the warned user group, permanently.

    There is no poll at the top, you must vote by stating which banner you like and your reasoning for it.

    Let the good times roll!

    They are both amazing, beautiful pieces of work...

    But I will have to go with number two, because it fits the background of Forge Hub more...

    I think the complexity and dark colors of number one do not fit the theme of Forge Hub...

    #1. It just looks better, its more epic. #2 is just boring, a very slight improvement from what we have now. #1 FTW!

    i like both, the first is like "hey, we are an awesome halo 3 forum."

    the second is like "hey we are awesome, and we can be serious"

    NUMBA 1

    [edit] number 1 would be cooler with a different armor IMO

    If we have to have a new one then absolutely not the second one.

    The last thing we need is to advertise: 'Intatrlok yur boxs!!!' in our banner.

    We don't have to have a new one. It just seems everyone is wanting one. It will be temporary, though. The new skin should be coming soon.

    The first one is awesome but I also like the second one. In the second one it has a great motto that suits forgehub. Forge friends fun. But I have to go with number 1 because of its looks.

    If the second didn't have a interlocked box in it then I would much rather it over the first. Our site already shuns anything that doesn't have twenty boxes interlocked into each other, the last thing we need is the banner advertising interlocking.

    Simplicity > Flashy-looking-ness in my opinion.

    Lol. I'm sure a different screenshot could be used. Or even interchanged by members and rotated, so you have a new banner every time you visit.

    #1

    Both are good, but there is just so much more to #1, and I like the colors more. I guess #2's map images are more appropriate, but Chief just looks cooler.

    Is there anyway to implement both, have an option for each member to change it whenever they woant. Have a little box that opens on the bottom of the page to change themes. Just a suggestion.

    Sounds awesome, as long as one resembles the banner we currently have.

    I just want it to look simple, keep the gray/white colors for the pics... Oh and those blue stripes no one notices. :p

    I vote for banner one, I feel that it is time for change, and after seeing the banner added and how it looks I fell the colors blend marvelously with our forums.

    Ergo, Banner #1
