From what I recall the reason centring stopped working with this banner was because it was resized and the centring code relies on the specific dimensions, which were not updated when the banner was resized. That or it required the right file name which changed when it was resized.

...or maybe it was lag, I can't remember.

in all honesty, making a banner with transparent rectangles on either side is an extremely impractical idea, the most obvious reason being people have different dimension screens and there will be no perfect measurement.


If we were to make a new banner, you'd have to consider what the 'edge' of it would be, and how that would be made clear. aka, would the background fade out, or will it be confined to a shape? And perhaps we'd want to take a slightly different route and create a logo that can be associated with MLNO and not just a banner, so the logo element can be taken out and identified as representing us. Or maybe I'm just tired and ranting about stuff without even thinking.

I also don't entirely see the point of making a new banner, sure LU's gone, but we have heritage in it and perhaps it's worth keeping the LU oval as a way of 'respecting the past' as it were?

And I'm not too sure if I'd have time to make a banner, maybe I'd give it a try but I've been pretty busy with stuff lately.I'm surprised I saw this on the day it was posted.
