I never even intended to change it but after we had this done for other more nefarious reasons we all thought it needed to be the banner for the above mentioned reasons. It just kind of happen that way. Changing the old banner was never even though of until two days ago.

This one is how we are in real life. Consider it part two of the change that started when we dropped the internet handles in lieu of our actual names.

In the five years we have been around, our banner has gone through plenty of changes (four banners in 5 years). We like to keep things fresh and also, we get our banners from friends of ours.<br /><br />The first DFG banner was clipped from a peice of RT art that former author, Captain Obvious found and suggested. (This was the old Blanche Tech Preist banner)<br /><br />A year later, I wanted to change things up and Captian Obvious and Chris Vinton said we should run a contest, which was a lot of fun, but the banner we selected was not only the clear winner, but also made by a local player to us at the time. (this was the decapitated Kharn banner)<br /><br />Next we had the absolutely stunning banner from Eye of Error, which was the result of our friendship with the former Lucky No. 5, now known as EoE and our overwhelming respect for his art not only on the table, but also in the graphics realm. This was an incredible and recognizable peice of art that I will always love. (This would be the skulls banner we had until recently)<br /><br />The current banner by Thomas, AKA Goat Boy is the latest in a trend of banners that are both personal to us and also created by our friends. In this case, Goat Boy and various members of this blog have always gotten along with and communicated since the days DFG first came about and Goat Boy started writing for BoLS, so it was natural for us to approach him on the next banner. Also, everything Chris said is correct, this banner brings us back to what this blog and what this hobby is really about.<br /><br />You see, we, and our authors have been doing this for a long time now and sometimes it is easy to become distracted by things that aren't even real in this hobby; pageviews, how many times a person posts, competitive play, whether or not somebody paints to your level, whether or not a person is bandwagoning, ect. ect. ect. All of those things at one point or another come up in most groups, but what matters in the long run is that we really come together to have fun, whether that is to play competitively, paint models or just go drink and tell jokes (or all those things at once). <br /><br />The best friends I have right now are people I met because of this hobby, so that's why I like this banner. In a year or two, there will be another one and we will see where it takes us. Change is constant.TJ Atwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01304177224607153451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-45482339122152536232013-11-20T10:28:26.321-05:002013-11-20T10:28:26.321-05:00Yeah, a little disappointed to see the old one go ...Yeah, a little disappointed to see the old one go -- it was really really cool -- but I like this new one too. It definitely portrays the feeling you were going for and it just fun to gaze upon.
