I've thrown together this ribbon very quickly about five minutes ago so it may not be the best but get what you pay for. :P

Wouldn't it look better if all the ribbons were the same standard size? :-"

I have the one for subs ready if that's your question, 500x50 looks better, the old ones just need enlargement.

They would have to be created from scratch again, enlarging pictures brings a loss of quality and pixelation.

That being said, I do think all future award banners \ ribbons should be 500 x 50 pixels.

Why not reduce this one, while keeping the others at their current size? That would solve the issue of loss of quality and pixellation that comes with enlargement.

Personally, I think Michael's idea of them all being the same size is logical, but with a number of GB's coming along, smaller banners (like the KUTA, the sci-fi and the WW1) would make more sense, as some people (not me, obviously, but there are others) could have a multiplicity of banners over time, and space could become a problem.

Again, it would have to be created from scratch to match the old dimensions. Also, trying to fit a usable background into a 350 x 19 banner is a pain. 500 x 50 gives a bit more room to be creative.

Members were always going to have to pick and choose which banners they want in their signature as the signature area can only hold so many. My suggestion would be to display the most recent three or four group builds you have completed.

I'm not going to redesign this banner and I'm not going to retroactively redesign the old banners either. It's just a period of change that everyone will have to get used too.
