thanks for the nice words! this was really fun to do. now, does anyone know how to change the dimensions of a forum banner? its all squished, and i have no idea how to change it. also, here's a larger image:
The dimensions settings must be in the VB backend somewhere. If they were to be changed, I don't think the width would line up with the forum width (the 'edges').
the image size is the proper width, its just getting smooshed vertically. if its a major thing to change, its not a big deal. but if anybody knows how to do that, send me PM please!
Um, well, I haven't been a Star Trek geek since approx. 1975, but some things just stick in your memory forever. The photo is from an old ST episode called "The Gamesters of Triskelion" in which captives from various planets are forced into gladiatorial games by three different-colored brain creatures, who wager a monetary unit called "quatloos" on the fighters. Naturally, Kirk ends up kissing the lady in silver lamé and the B-52's hairdo, named "Shana." Sorry if that was too obscure. I considered hedging a bet on Mutant Chaos but figured that would be too obvious, so I pulled a "fight figure" from the deepest recesses of boyhood memory and Google Images.
I didn't know that, but after reading your comment read her bio at Wikipedia. You nailed it ... tragic, and soooo typical of what can happen to actresses in Hollywood.
She is awesome in "Mad Doctor of Blood Island"!! No I am not kidding - I love that film! All the Blood Island flicks rock!
i love the new banner! rainbows, monsters, skull punching, fire breathing, whats not to love. although kozik's Real x Head X Jesus would have also been acceptable
