Keep in mind if C wins I'm editing out lorna/pan to make that corner empty, and have a bunch of character cut-outs in rotation in that area instead.
Branching off from that, would it be possible to have the banner change with the time of day? We could have a night theme with Succubus and Rua in the corner.

I like this idea.

Not impossible but we'll start simple for now.
There's also a mater of time zones.

A or C, ugh I can't decide which. I really like the text on C more, so I guess that's the deal breaker for me. C it is.

I like C. I'm not fond of the characters or the background in A, and B looks too plain to me.
I like the fidoh dungeon theme for C, however, the text seems slightly lopsided. The white space in the middle does bother me a bit.

I like B and C.
B because it's really simple, and I like fucking simplicity.
And C is just fucking cutesy.
I'll go with C.

Entry A

I don't like the background very much but the characters and text are very nice.
Entry B

The background kicks ass, there's also a version available with no Nao on the side which would allow using many character cut-outs in rotation every time the page is loaded. The text seems bland but it can be fixed easily.
Entry C

I like the text in this one, and the art as well even though it's from a wallpaper or something (but so is our current banner so can't complain). By editing out lorna/pan it would be possible to have many character cut-outs on rotation as well.
Banner 1: I like the format (locations) of/on banner 1, but I don't much care for the font or the particular piece of fanart.
Banner 2: I like it, but if you ask me, a green background is best. Maybe if you had the text in a similar size and location as #1... I like the idea of having the character change when the page loads.
Banner 3: I don't really like it, but if you just cut out the idea of having any character on the left, and put the text there instead, I'd like it.
If I had to choose one, I'd choose the 2nd. Personally, I preffer the current banner, but meh.

Uhmm. Not really thrilled for any of them, I should have done something myself though :c
A is good, but the font is really not good for this type of thing.
I'll go with C for the simplicity and getting the job done like that, some changes could be done, that white space above the middle isn't favorable for example, and the text should be moved, either to a corner, or down to the border of where it is now.

A. Really like the character art + the text is nice but 2d art really doesn't mesh with an in-game screenshot and thick outlines make it look pasted on/flat if the background isn't painted in the same style as well.
B. I like the tree shade design but there's a bit too much overlay/dodge abuse, could do with milder colors. Also there’s too much empty space in the middle + text needs work, although text could be fixed easily.
C. Right side of C looks really nice, but not a fan of the white/empty space in the middle, though I think you can cover that up by extending the background arc near the “mabination†text on the right all the way down to near bottom left of the banner, then slap w/e character cutouts on top of that.
My vote goes for C

I vote entry A.
Entry C seems so lazy to me. Recycled logo text, it looks like 2 mabi backgrounds faded into each other.

Defiantly going with C, the background is just beautiful, and the text is totally appropriate.
Looks friendly too.

I like A, it's different from what you normally see.
