The helix is classy and understated.

The cow is hard to figure out in the distance (I thought maybe it was an owl or a brown penguin) and seems a bit cheezy.
 
The Helix one looks great. The only thing I would improve is the contrast between the text and background. With some of the colours, it is hard to read at the left. I'd also like to see it much more readable during the time that the background colour changes.

I'll increase the font size. I'm very glad that so many of you are participating on this Poll. :) Keep those opinions coming! What do you think of that idea that the banner will get the points of our team, when you rollOver? There are 3 colors and we could use those 3 to display different text content:

Blue - Team Points (will get them dynamically and its updated constantly)

Green - Team Message (Marketing based! :D )

Orange - Display "Click here to Join Us!".
Good ideas, I like the helix too... the Cow/Mad Cow is just one part of the research...


I would also like a link to the forums/FAQ...

Atleast a MacRumors -- Team #3446 somewhere in there...

Good Job, Good Job.


I'm not voting until the versions come out I suppose.

The decision has been made by Mr. Anderson to go with the Helix. I'm very happy about the desioson.

And even after the first 12 hours of voting the helix looks like the winner....so we'll go ahead and get that fixed up soon and make it official.

Currently Mr. Anderson if coordinating with Tiauguinho to finalize the Helix design.

...

Have you talked to him outside this thread?

I mean... the Poll isn't closed...

urm? :confused:


I also hope the notes and suggestions are added to whichever design wins.
 
Mr. Anderson or Tiauguinho, do you know how soon the Helix banner will be finalized and ready for use?
 
The polls are closed - the newest version will be ready when its ready - we'll let you all know.

Thanks for voting.

I'm sorry Mr. Anderson. Our intent wasn't to cause any annoyance. We are just hyped on the subject and excitedly curious.
 
Sounds like a plan...

And I didn't even vote... damn.

I was gonna wait till they were updated till their final version!

:rolleyes:


Thats what happens when I you don't vote eh... drat.

Well, if we have a couple of versions on a final version we'll have another poll.

If you had voted this time around it wouldn't have made any difference, it was a landslide.

Yeah the 40:10 against is really a big landside.

I think the prob with the cow is that it was cute... but how many people are going to know that obsure reference?


Thanks for the wonderful banners!
 
Please don't get upset with my question Mr. Anderson. I'm just very excited and curious. Do you have any update on the new "Banner Design?'

Don't be so subservient.

If he is annoyied about questions the worst he could do is not respond.


He has no reason to get upset with you...

I also request an update, its been 5 days or so.
 
It's been almost three weeks since the Banner was unveiled. I'm looking forward to the final version. Do you have an update Mr. Anderson?

I'm sorry Mr. Anderson, didn't think that it hurt anything to inquire. They always say that if you don't ask, you won't know. I'm probably not the only one that is very curious. So now I will try to be very patient. :cool:

Point taken MrMacman. Now I have been humbly put in my place. :( (As he hides under a desk in tears)
