[Contest] New Banner!

Let’s have a two-week contest for a new community banner!

The current banner on this community is a photo I took. I want to open it up to community members to submit a photo. You can put your logo in the corner or a link to your site.

You can vote to keep the current one; however, I’d love to rotate the community one monthly with a monthly contest.

Submit your photos to this thread. The photo with the most votes will be made the banner.

The content ends at the end of this month. The winner will be made the banner for September. Mid-September, we’ll start the contest for October, etc.

Since we have a tie, I'll keep choice one for two weeks and then choice two for two weeks. We'll split the month!

Hey, just saw this. Thank you, and good idea. And congratulations to kenvald on their cool photo, too.

This sounds fun! I don't really have a great camera but maybe I can find something from a past trip.

Also, I believe you mixed up the months at the end of the post?

You are correct! I fixed it. I made the original post quickly on mobile. I rarely proofread. Thanks!

My submission of the Grand Canyon. I can share a cropped square if you need it.

Maybe the app doesn’t show it. That’s unfortunate.

Try looking at it on the web when you get a chance.

Here is a preview on mobile web.

On the web, the banner height is 240, with a max width of about 1330 and minimum width of about 200. It's not the easiest to plan for.

Mobile apps could be different.

I have some of my better pictures below. Feel free to carve out a narrow strip that beckons to you and use it as my submission.

I can't seem to upload this particular image. Not sure why, since it's within the limits of photo uploads, but anywhere, here's the imgur link to the image:

Parker Lake, 8/14/2023. Sunrise over the lake, a bit blustery...

Nope - can’t upload via Memmy on iOS or from my MBpro via Firefox.

I'll look more in to it later to see if I can debut the service. I have your image to try myself. I'll let you know when I get it working.
