The other problem w/ a new banner contest now is that one would have to edge out some of the serials in the current banner to make space for more recent mythos, such as DkDM and DBSK. I know that the latter sucked, but Vishal was a fantastic Krishna, and Revathy & Balarama were good as well - when the latter wasn't decked up like Agamemnon.

The other problem w/ the current banner is its being too grainy.

I propose that we have a banner made entirely out of asur/rakshasa photos. C'mon that would be awesome. 😎😆

I think if we dis-include the paintings this time, we'll find space. Instead of on the banner, I propose that our forum's icon should be made out of purely paintings so that it reflects the Gods without using any one mytho.
We can also take out Om Namah Shivay from the banner and replace it with Dkdm, because no ONS fans are active in the forum right now. When the banner was being made, ONS fans were online so it made sense, but I think a forum's banner should reflect the current mythological discussions going on in the forum.
If we have Jai Shri Krishna, Shri Krishna, DBSK, and BRC's Mahabharat all in the banner, we should definitely mix the characters and include only ONE Krishna from either of the shows, and other characters from the other shows.
Same with Ramayan. If we're going to include RSR and ASR, and possibly Zee's new Ramayan if anyone wants it on the banner, there need only be one Ram, one Sita, one Hanuman, other Lakshman, etc from either of the shows.
The problem is that fans of each show will want their favorite Ram and Krishna on the banner, but as long as one character from each mytho is represented there shouldn't be too much of a problem or fuss from the members. It's only a banner after al.
What do you guys think?

What if, instead of screenshots from serials, the banner just uses images, drawings, paintings, photos of statues of deities, demons, etc?

I mean, if you want to include Veerabhadra then instead of this:



You use say...this:

^^ I was considering that too, but the whole reason behind creating this forum was to have a place to discuss mythological shows, especially after their forums closed, or the mytho shows which never had forums because they're from the previous generation. The majority of discussion in this forum is about shows so I think it would be more apt to have a banner that depicts the popular shows of this forum.

I don't particularly see a problem with adding more characters' faces into the banners. In this banner, we got away with using just nine pics, and all shows were included. Adding two three more won't make it crowded.

And if we're going the logo route, how about just the words "mythological masti" and some religious symbol like the Om? The logos are 125x83 pixels. How can we squeeze in all the images of all the dieties? Most of the tv show forums just have a screenshot of the opening track, which we can't do since we compromise of so many different tv shows.

I agree about the logo. A sign of hinduism (like Om or swastik) would be better and more professional than a tiny logo with a bunch of blended pics no one will even be able to see.
