All designers changed their designs to accommodate the "ruling" but having had a look around, it's not apparently a ruling that is enforced on other clubs' pages, which does seem a tad unfair.

Though not as unfair as it is on josefw's black bull - which to accommodate the narrow height has had its nads cut off

Ultimately all sites will have to adhere to the new banner size.

Given we were having a competition, which the above banner was winner as voted by the majority, we were asked to fit in with the new size requirements.

Can we change it? Yes we could.

Will we be doing so? No. The comp was there for all to use their vote. Whilst a forum isn't a true democracy (does any really exist?) Josefw entry won by virtue of it being the one recieving the most votes.

End of . . . until next year, where we may well "commission" the banner and impose it . . . . . given the amount of comments following a vote

Well done josefw. You won fair and square mate. Don't take the negative stuff to heart. You can't please all the people all of the time.

its pants!

I voted for it and still think it looks great. Right colours, right order, right size, right expectations of featured elements moving on for better pay / lifestyle.

Any word on whether the bull is likely to report back for pre-season training?

At the moment it doesn't bother me either way about the banner as I still have the old one displaying on my screen, is the new one supposed to be up??? So no change here.....maybe I'm just stuck in the past

i had to hit CTRL+F5 to get the new banner to show. my browser must have cached the old image.

i bet this new banner will be quicker to load on my mobile too, although not tried yet.

Ah, cheers for that....might try that later.

the last couple of years have been poor, this years is better, but not rugby league enough for me

I assume that all the dissenters out there are all gonna enter their own super duper banner for the 2012 campaign?? Looking well forward that those. Should resemble the Louvre of here with all the budding Picassos we seem to have.

(Incidentally, I am complete crap at making these banner things and therefore I appreciate the ability of all those who entered. They all did a considerably better job than I ever could.)

im no picasso or david hockney myself but i can have an opinion on what they regard as artistic.remember the hockney telephone book, lots of local kids did there own versions and most were as good as the original and a lot were far better.

So you didn't enter then? A wee bit out of order having a pop at other peoples' efforts I would have thought?



Erm. No. I don't whatsoever.

Ah! Sadly I did not get my copy of the Bradford and District phone book in Central Scotland. Probably why Mr W Bowling Bull went straight over my head.
