Commissioning art from Kent Archer, as a forum

Remember when your parents told you your dog got sent to a farm? This is that farm, except it's full of old monthly discussion threads.

I like the idea of Kent's banner being our only one. Not to invalidate the work that everyone did way back when, but Kent's is really great.
Remember our bargain, wizard.

I don't have it, but Kent still has a copy.

I'm still (...still) working on giving you the option of turning off banner rotation, in which case this could be a candidate for the "default" banner.

Maybe a separate thread with a Banner Hall of Fame, and 'retire' the vintage banners to there?

Ah, I only planted the smallest of seeds in the fertile ground you provided. And then everyone else helped it grow!

It's awesome, I logged back in for the first time since he finished it, and that banner was the first thing I saw. It was perfect.

Good news, everybody! If you want this to be your only banner, all you need do is go to the User Control Panel and check "No" to banner rotation. To those who were waiting for this: sorry it took so long.
