A message to all participants:
All of you have done a great job with respect to choosing the caps arranging them etc.
But I have received a few PMs about the banners in general.
The brighness of most the banners is very very low. It's not really your fault. The recent episodes also look like they have been shot in darkness. While making the banner, maybe you all should have adjusted the brightness of the caps.
Please look at the present banner. It looks bright and colourful.
I tried brightening one of the banners, but it's not giving the right effect as each of the individual caps has a different brightness level and it's turning messy.
I am posting the brightened version of Banner no 1 as an example.

Please see the right extreme cap of duo and Freddie. The faces look more clear in the brightened version. However, the other duo cap on the left of the CID logo has become over-bright.
I am sorry if this is an inconvenience to all of you. Please let me know on this thread as to whether you all will be able to brighten your banners and resubmit again and whether you need more time for this.
We all need to work together and create a nice banner for our forum - one with which we won't regret replacing our old banner.
This is not just my request...many non-participants have PMed me in this regard. I hope you all will take it in the right spirit.
If you all are busy and cannot do this modification, please let me know.
