Image Competition

... Of a sorts. I'd really like my NationStates blog (www.siroccothemod.blogspot.com) to have a slick header which is image-based, preferably incorporating the flightless hippo and the blog's title. I, however, lack the skills, know-how, or tools to create one. So, if anyone can come up with something cool I can give them a special mention. Perhaps as the name of one of the disputants in a new issue?

Anyhow. New issues in the works guys.

Oh, neat! Gotta love the photoshop competition. :) Wish my skills weren't so rusty - hope to see some good attempts, though.

That's pretty groovy! Competition's still open, people, I think I'll wrap it up in about a week or so.

I think I can create a vector based version of the flying hippo for anybody to use on the banners, but it will have to be on a day that I'm not computer pooped (i.e. tired of looking at a machine all day). ;)

What are some other things you liked from the previous NS banners?

Or better yet, what sort of tech level is your nation. Future, Modern, Pre-Industrial, Ewok / Smurf?
