Default New LS1Tech Banner

I think its time for an updated LS1Tech banner. Its started to look a little plain and dated. I still like the logo itself, just the rest. Am I alone thinking this?


***UPDATE***
Here's some of the ideas brought up in this thread. There's some more but I think they didn't pass the test

I'm contributing because I see you are from Crapids as was I.

Unfortunately I can't agree with you. I think the banner is fine. But I fear change so..

Definetly time for a change. The new Camaro is now a reality, not a pipe dream like the computer sketch in the banner. Maybe have a member's car of the month go up there, change it out, make it a little contest.

I mentioned this I while back. The admins said they would change it if someone can come up with a banner with a 5th gen pic and LS1tech still in banner. No one would come up with a pic and the thread died.

They said they wont change the name because LS1tech is to known. Also they said its got to be a 5th gen so people know the site is still relevant.

Here is what Adrian said in the old thread. So if someone can stay in those guidelines we can get it changed.

  • Include a 5th Gen in the image (although that doesn't have to be the only vehicle in the header)
  • Work with the 3 different color schemes we have.
  • Use the LS1tech logo (although if you come up with a new awesome logo, thats cool too)
  • Not use any proprietary GM image.

I personally like the current header, but am always open to other options
