Thanks for my Thunderball sig banner. Fantastic. How would I be able to get an image up on the left hand side of the forums post, where it tells you who post it is.

Good afternoon!
I hope it's not to early to ask, but is there any chance you could fix up a banner for me if you get a chance?

I was thinking about something with a picture of William Stephenson and a old style nautical compass, maybe with an aged leather background in beige or deep red. If it's not too much trouble, I would like to add the words:

Stephenson: A Man Called Intrepid

In gold in a more classic style font.

I've included some links to give you an idea of the picture of Stephenson and the style of compass.

http://www.kwarc.org...on-intrepid.jpg

http://www.inexhardw.....olumbus I.jpg

Judging from your past work, I suspect you're swamped with requests! Great stuff! I wanted to ask before but wasn't sure if there was a "waiting period". Thanks!
John

I've addred you two to the list, Stephenson and Bon-san. :) Bon-san is you could just let me know what type of sig you're looking for in this thread, attach pics to you post if you like as well and I'll see what I can do. :)
  • PrinceKamalKhan: Timothy Dalton, Teri Hatcher, Caroline Munro. Aston Martin Volante. "Spend the money quickly, Mr. Bond."
  • Stephenson (canoe2): William Stephenson, old style nautical compass. Aged leather background in beige or deep red. "Stephenson: A Man Called Intrepid" (gold, classic font).
  • Bon-san: pending

OK Athena, here goes.

I've included a selection of images below. I don't really have a theme in mind. I just like those images. I realize there's probably not enough space for all of them, nor do they all necessarily belong together. I just thought I'd put them all out there, for you to pick from. As to overall composition (and color and font) I trust your instincts. :)

Thanks tons!

P.S. In regards to the 2nd pic (Noto_girls), I like the images of the girls, but not that funky thingy on the left.

BTW: that art work is really cool... is there a web-site featuring it or?

I would like a banner sig. I like color, and old style Bond (like the DB-5) Sean Connery is my favorite Bond.

How's things going on the "sig-banner free service" front, Athena? :)

I know you are very busy, and I'm not in any way complaining. I'm just excited to get a banner. If it's been rude and bothersome of me to ask, apologies in advance!

Licence to Kill, you're added to the list. :)

Bon-san, no no no, not rude to ask at all. Sometimes it just takes me a while since I have non-CBn obligations as well (like this weekend, Thurs-Sun I'm working 12 hours per day over at Magic Mountain for a Kids WB Promo). So, don't worry about seeming "bothersome" for asking for a banner. I just hope you all understand that I usually can't whip them out quickly. Sorry for the delay. I'll try and get to them next week if I have a moment.

I'd added that for you, Gri007. Remember anyone can change their sig by going under "My Controls --> Personal Profile --> Edit Signature" ...it's just the graphics that you have to have approved by us first. So if you have something like this...
<SIG>your_screen_name</SIG>
...just don't delete that from your sig.

I've been trying for a while to make myself a signature banner with no luck. I found this thread and figured that I'd ask if someone wouldn't mind making me one. I've seen some of the others that have been made for people on here and they look fantastic. :)

Thanks,

I know Athena that you will be no doubt swamped with requests at the moment, but if possible would you be able to make me one too whenever possible?

If so, could you base it on On Her Majesty's Secret Service? Maybe whiteish with a light/fading image of skis going across the banner - sort of similar to Jim's with the swimmers - and snow developing from one side to the other? Then just the username in light blue on the right or something? Only if possible and if you have the time mind you. :)

Athena, I took a short break after I asked for my banner and never got the chance to thank you for it. So... thank you so much, it's fantastic! I love it.

tdalton: Sure! Just post your request here. It's taken me a while to do the current request list (here's an example why. I was on the set of 'Monk' for about 17 hours overnight Wed-Thurs of this week). But, when I have some free time... I can bust out a nice group of icons.

Lazenby880: Got your request in the queue. :)

Spoon: I'm really glad you love it!!

Awesome. Thanks! :)

I guess I'd want a picture of Dalton on the banner-sig with a "The Living Daylights" theme, seeing as how it's my favorite Bond film.

Thanks again. :)

Hm.... I love my sig, but based on what you've done so far (incredible work by the way), lets see if you could....... Spiff it up a bit? :)
  • In Bold Black Letters "ES Blofeld"
  • Under in black letters "Number One"
  • Pictures? Maybe an octopus ring like I have now, or something symbolizing Blofeld or SPECTRE, throw in anything that you think'll fit in.

To celebrate my relaese of my fan fiction on cbn. I was just asking if you could 'reinovate' my banner making it a lot cooler and sharp.

drop the 'Operation' and just keep Thunderball.

You could probably try to incorporate the Nightfire book cover that Ice phoenix has done. Check out Nightfire discussion thread to see picture.

If it's to complex then just leave it. I do love the banner you have done for me. But i just want it updating if that's alright.

Thanks Athena
