Thoughts on a Bengals banner for up top?

[Ghost In The Machine]

Any suggestions?

Here are some examples of other team banners:
Alabama Crimson Tide

Florida Gators

NHL Hockey Forum - Message Board - General Discussion

Pretty cool. I'd have to look around and see what I can find. I have some things I have to do for a few hours, but I'll look around later.

What happened to the post suggesting 8 criminals behind bars?

Didn't think it was such a bad idea.

As funny as it was, I deleted it. We don't need to be scaring anyone off.

 

[flamingrey]

Fair enough.

Out of curiosity, is there a limit to the size of signature people are allowed using?

As a board, we decided that image signatures made the threads hard to read. So, we left them off. This decision can always be revisited.

I absolutely agree. Too much clutter for me.

I saw the baby playing in your post and mistakenly assumed it was a signature.

The .gifs are a nice change from ESPN.

Oh yeah... and you can embed Youtube vids.



Just grab the the video's code, and only the video's code (highlighted in red)

...outube.com/watch?v=RXeHnGZnHqA

It comes right after the equals sign. Don't copy anything after the code either.

"Go advanced" reply.

Click on the little "Youtube" icon.

Paste the code in between the brackets.

Done.

LOL!!

was that me that said that??

 

[flamingrey]

Believe it was.

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

Believe it was.

sorry about that sir

I live in Cincinnati and being a Bills fan you guys are fun to laugh at

unfortunately you ruined that by drafting Andy Dalton

now you're going to become good

 

[flamingrey]

I can't speak for the fans you encounter in cincy, but most of us on ESPN are not oblivious of the asylum that is called the Cincinnati Bengals.

As for Dalton. Meh. The success rate of QB's not drafted in the first round does not leave too much to expect or be hopeful for.

And just sayin', but I'm not sure Bills fans are allowed to laugh at Bengals fans (minus the 35 2nd half points Fitzpatrick dropped on our defense last season).

most of your fans are not too bad, I just like to joke around with them and they're fun to joke around with.

but look at it this way with Dalton, he's a winner and with how many times you blew leads last year having a guy like Dalton would be a major change to that. Think about it, if you had him last year you could have made the playoffs.

We've won 10 straight in the series, that's why we can laugh

I like Dalton, but he's definitely not a sure thing. If I was Mike Brown I would have thrown the kitchen sink at Matt Hasselbeck. He's still good enough to win games, and would be the PERFECT tutor to Dalton for a year or two in the WCO. Alas, Mike Brown is an idiot.

Yeah Mike Brown is an idiot and is your downfall.
Gradkowski isn't a bad quarterback though he can certainly win you some games.

Right now your offense has a good young foundation but now the defense has issues, letting Jonathan Joseuph go was a major mistake.

Can you make our background our Bengal orange like the Steelers board has the yellow? I can make a temporary banner until someone makes something better. I am not much of a graphic artist, so I will be happy with someone replaces it, but it will be decent enough to post I think. I will run it by Vance before we submit it for posting.

 

[BoiseStateFan27]

UTVol makes pretty good banners, if he has time I'm sure he could make one, he is pretty dadburn good at it.

 

[UTVolCountry]

I don't mind making one, but since this is yalls board, I'd rather one of you guys have the chance to make one and put it up if you want....if ya know what I mean.

 

[vancelot23]

I confess, that's out of my element to make one. If crash wants to make one up, I'll be glad to take a look and then go from there. I do like the background being orange.

I'd say Dalton, Green, Gresham, and Maualuga should be on it. At least that way it will be good for at least a couple years. I'd make one, but it would look so terrible. I'm awful at photo shop, and anything else artistic in general.
