i have had an idea...
if you look to the top of the page you will see an over the shoulder shot of a RVSF guy looking at a CLA dude. this is the page header (i think its called)
we should have a competition to see if anyone can get another cool one in the same style to use.
and everytime you refresh the page a different one could come up with the persons tag on it. This is JUST A SUGGESTION.
what do you guys think?

Probably not going to make it to the AC page, but it sounds like a good idea.
(Not original though, as it has been done before)

Also nice would be to make a gif out of 4 or 5 nice images with one picture every 10 seconds or something ^^

They have this on a anime forum i've seen before, everytime you refresh the page or such, the banner changes. And the banners are purely from the users.
Great idea, thumbs up.

Yeah, 20 MB gifs which will finally make slow-internet-users stay away from the forums... *cough*

You could maybe only pick a few from the competition, if that'll help.

stick to the refresh page, new banner idea
make some, see what the dev's think
they could always test this idea for a month or 2 if were lucky

RapidFire
When you crop the gif file down for animation, and you're only using 4 or 5 frames, it should definitely not be anywhere near 20 MB. Maybe 1MB. I'll do some research on that tonight.

Thanks for the bump Andrez! Lets keep it alive.
I got the idea from one of the halo 3 stat tracking sites where one of my screenshots feature.
thought it could work on this site just as well.

hmmmmmm...
perhaps a Screenshots page could suffice, and the devs decide which would be best.
still just an idea though.
