Support CAP WEDNESDAY Banners

Hello again,

Straight down to business today. I've been promising people some SUPPORT CAP WEDNESDAY Banners to help spread the word about Captain Britain and MI13. Animated Banners, at that. So here, slightly belated due to discovering that Blogger doesn't seem to like me uploading animated Gifs, they are.

After discussion with people at Millarworld, Newsarama and CBR's forums I've come up with following four signature banners. They're laid out as images frame by frame here, to show you what each one looks like. If you want to use the banner in question you'll need to click on the link below each one, which will take you to where I have uploaded the image over at ImageShack for folks to collect. Each banner is available in two sizes - a clearer 500x100 banner for use on forums without limitations on size, and a smaller slightly compressed 400x80 version for use on sites like Newsarama who do have limit on the size of the file.

So, here we go:



Which can be found here:

Standard Size: Here

Or Compact Size: Here

And for those who wish to be identified as being on the other side of the Atlantic:



Located:

Standard Size: Here

Or Compact Size: Here

One specifically for Black Knight and continuity pedantry fans (I know you're out there):



Located:

Standard Size: Here

Or Compact Size: Here

And also one of Blade and Spitfire:



Which can be found:

Standard Size: Here

Or Compact Size: Here

I'm actually using that one, myself.

I'd ask you all that if you can save these to your own PCs and upload them to forums yourself where possible - Not because I'm some kind of scrooge, merely because I've no idea the bandwidth of ImageShack, and I'd hate for the signatures to suddenly start disappearing at at once.

Any thoughts and feedback is appreciated. I've already had some request for some static image banners, which I'll have a go at as well.

Remember folks CAP WEDNESDAY is in under two weeks now. Keep February 11th in your diary.

  2. Whoops! Wasn't wearing my glasses when I posted and I thought this was Paul Cornell's blog.

    O.P. (sans the personal thanks for writing the book):

    "It blows my mind that this book isn't one of Marvel's top sellers.

    My LCS (and place of employment) orders quite a few and they always sell out. Every comic reader in my area reads/loves the damn thing!"

  3. Well, regardless of where you thought you were you're always welcome here, Drew.

    I completely agree with you. I can't understand why this one isn't higher up Marvel's sales chart, I really can't. Here's hoping that word of this title now spreads.

    Don't forget, folks, #10's out on the 11th.

  5. I shall join your campaign of terror and/or comic-buying glory.
    Hopefully the arc after this will heavily feature Yorkshire, and give us one decent character from these fair and honourable shires.
