Updated Demonland Banner

[Grandson of a gun 276]

No disrespect to the current crop on the demonland banner but I believe Jack Grimes should also feature.

I know it's not as simple as banging up a photo but just thought if you guys have any upgrades or refreshes due soon that it would be a good sign of respect.

Agree and had requested this be done when the new capts were announced last week.

There's no question that Grimes should be there.

[Range Rover 1,935]

Chuck Grimes on the end. That way the boys are bookended by the Captains Jack.

[Whispering_Jack 28,089]

I'm all in favour too.

Just a matter of time before our design team squeezes him in.

I'm a fan of Jack Jack's effort in the leadership thread

Quality work.

Grimes should go in.

But am I right in thinking we didn't have Green there for all of last year? After all, he was the captain.

[Guest Thomo]

Grimes is out of the banner injured

Grimey..

[Jack Jack 415]

I'm surprised I haven't seen the official banner updated with Frank "Grimey" Grimes.

What's the holdup? Is it copyright that's holding up proceedings? Or a server issue?

[Guest melbman]

Done

you can thank me later :-)

melbman FTW.

I know it's shocking isn't it, i have the syringe and absynthe ready...

[double dee 27]

had a spare 20 mins so threw grimes on the end of the banner

There's only one guy that can update the banner (Andy), and with him having a family, a job and a life, I'd say it'll happen when he gets around to it. Everyone can just wait patiently in the mean time.

How about just putting up the whole leadership group, with our head Coach,,, bookended with some of Our AFL Legends.

Psh....I can't imagine any of those things being more important than an online footy forum.

One small issue is that the template used for Demonland is a variable width template which means it adjusts to the screen width of the device being used.

The player image part of the banner is approx. 900 pixels wide, and if you veiw DL on an iphone or ipad which has a screen width of 1024 pixels, Beamer only just appears.

Unless Grimes replaces an existing player eg Beamer or JW and instead is simply added at the end (as DD has done), he will not appear on the aforementioned devices.

My suggestion would be to replace JW with JG. DD may also notice that players on the RHS of the banner face left, so I'd think there would be a better image of Jack available.

Maybe if the image attributes were a percentage of screen width (or table row/table data width) it may solve that issue. I guess it depends on how it affects the rest of of the page layout

Sometimes you never know with templtes till you give it a crack and see what weird and wonderfull things happen as a result

Or now that Jimmy has stepped down, Neeld could be moved left and Grimes in. Suggestion. Don't wish to upset the natives.
