Here is the banner:

Here's the sidebar:

Here's how it would look on the site:

The reasons I went with this design:
- The banner is shorter than the current banner, cutting about 40px off and decreasing the size, increasing space for site content
- The banner is not explicitly starcraft, but has strong connections with starcraft, which will most likely be a key game from here out (and certainly is now)
- I feel that the color (the greys behind the explosion) matches the site layout well.
- You can directly replace the two current images (banner and sidebar) with these two, making the change effortless.
Thanks!
Cool, but do we really need to make the sidebar D:?

I wouldn't think you would need to, however I felt mine would look much better if the explosion could transition across. Otherwise you're limited to transparent BGs (or you'd have a harsh vertical line going down the right side of your image).
wow! definitely the nicest so far, there goes my dreams of making a banner
Thanks :)
If the motto is going to be changed (to Making B.NET Magic, for example), and mine is picked, I can easily change the motto as well.
Nice banner, good job on the text
wow i just wet myself thats just amazing.
yeah so uhh.. this one is bretty badass. I should be postin mine tomorrow. 0_o kinda scared of this one.
I seriously love this banner! It's simpleness it's so beautiful! Just one little thing, sorry for my missunderstanding but, wich are the differences between you sidebar and the site's one? :-X
Thanks for the posts!
The modified sidebar just replaces the black with my custom explosion-blur bg. The reason I did it in two parts is because that's how it appears to be on the site now, so it would make for an easier transition (just drop them in).
yep, I saw that too. sounds like your a fellow webdesigner. looks like it too.
