This is a request for help. We want a new banner for the group, but 'we' currently consists of two administrators and one contributor. Will you help us find a new banner? If you are a artist who wants to design a new banner, that is wonderful. Send me or Bookish Delight a PM. If you can find a picture that would work as a banner for this group, post a link down below. Let's get something better than that picture of Fluttershy's cottage.

I lack the artistic talent to make something original, but I've been known to edit things together, so I might be able to help. If you visit my user profile, there are links to groups that i've created banners for. At a minimum, I should be able to find a suitable picture that still has good content when cropped down to the appropriate dimensions.

While this in no way instantly fills the position, I just want to say that I'm okay with this.

For the record, I always liked your Cheerilee banner the best.

How about... No, wait, that's Hearth's Warming.

Maybe this one, as a placeholder at least.

I'm pretty fond of that one myself.

I've got something for you. I wanted to get as much pony love and cuteness in one place as I could. So we've got ponies -- including various sisterly pairings -- some cutie marks, the fire ruby, the Crystal Heart, and the Fire of Friendship at the center of things. I also allowed some space in the lower left for overlap from a group icon, once one of those has been uploaded as well. (Might I suggest a Fire of Friendship screencap scaled down to 100x100? I can also help with that if you'd like.)

My first attempt was kind of "meh", but I like this one. 2066274 says she approves.

Finally, I do have some room to move Cadance if the group icon ends up covering part of her mane or something...

(Edit: the image was auto-scaled down by posting in the thread. It is, however the required 1000x250 dimensions.)

I like that one

2073063 I like this banner. Placing on the main page in a minute.

2073063 2066274 The banner is in place. I put the credit for your work on the page.

Added the icon as well. Huge thanks, dood!

You're very welcome! Looks like I overestimated the amount of space the icon takes up, though. (Not surpising, really. I always have trouble with that.) You want another filly or anything in that empty spot?

I think we're good -- don't want to overcrowd. Maybe move Pinkie down a bit?

2074313
If it is not too much trouble, could you do a Filly!Twilight in that space? To me, Filly!Twi is cutest pony. You don't have to, as you have already done us a marvelous favor in designing a banner, I just like her.

I should be able to find something suitable.

Now featuring filly Twilight Sparkle! I don't think we'll have any overlap, but we'll see once it's posted...
