I was posting something else then was a switch of the GC banner , and in the one with a sort of Victorian or Steampunk version of Wilber with monoculars moustache and a adapt black hat .

Just curious to know who did that banner ... i love that victiorian/steampunk Wilber

It was I Wallace, who created that banner. Here's a link to the thread 'GIMP Sophistication...', where you can view the 'Sophisticated Wilber' image I came up with.

@Esper,
I applied a color curve to a bump-mapped gradient of the text then colorized it. It's kind of the standard way of making metallic text.
I customized the font using 'Baltra GD Roman' as the base font.

I too find them all refreshing and a surprise to see what's going to appear next...
:bigthup
the more the merrier I say... how about a non English submission to add a more international flavour?
"Dove la fantasia incontra l'innovazione" or
"Donde la imaginación cumple Innovación" or even
"Där fantasin möter innovation" perhaps. :)
PS I blame google translate if that offends anyone ;)
