I've just spent four hours designing a sun for mine!  Tongue

Ok, I like those pictures of girls in the banner by bplus,  especially old guys, who started programming with BASIC, like me, could be attracted. 

But I think it doesn' t fit optimal to the header banner of a programming language.
   
A sun or something unspecific would be nice fot attraction of new users or beginners of QB64Phoenix...

PhilOfPerth show us your sun!

And I think bplus, the specialist for graphics,  can do this also better as this first draft of jumping beach people!

I wonder if an actually good banner will win this time around.
Schuwatch!
Yes, it's me. Now shut up.

I'm sure he was joking. I'm working on something too.

Sun??? What a Plasma Laser Cannon is not good enough? LOL

I did have a sun I made as mod for someone way back when... was that lost with one of the hard drives last summer? I think I animated the rays too. I will check.

My feelings exactly. The only flaw is the "people" are stretched out a bit, looks unnatural. In another day, I would have complained there was only one guy with four girls. (Oh noes she with light blue hard disk is too SCSI.) How about another man? At least a man for each volleyball team LOL. Or the "sun" should be the other man. (evil smile)

@mnrvovrfc  I was thinking of you when I made sure there was a guy in pic, all yours while we scrap over only 5 girls sheesh!

But you are right about deformed figures. It's hard to make a 800 X 307 image fit into a 1400 X 256 but this should be better:
   

This is my final submission for contest as of 6-16 anyway Smile

Facepalm of the month at my end, off by one! Miscounted the number of ladies.

Hello my name is Minerva. I am a city hermit. I like Linux and programming in a BASIC dialect, hate C++ and whatever could have given me a high-paying job. I lived inside a posting forum, to follow my top two pursuits. I'm also a connisseur of pictures of young people on the beach. Until I counted wrong the number of people on one banner of the forum. Now I have to do penance perhaps by telling you all even more about myself.
