Since my blue flames are plastered over pretty much every account I create, I've decided to change my banner at the top of my profile page. I did a bit of basic Photoshop with it. Nothing too fancy. Just aligned everything up and used the Outer Glow tool. I quite like it. 
When you see it you'll notice there are 4 small images to the right. They basically represent me.
1. Hayden Panettiere
Anyone who knows me will know how bad I have it for this gal. She's smart, beautiful and she does great things for the world. I signed her new petition for The Whaleman Foundation. Go to her MySpace for more info on that.
2. The Ice Knight from Castle Crashers
This dudey character represents gaming! Be it on the Xbox 360, PS2, GameCube, emulation or handheld, I do game very frequently so it's quite a big part of my life.
3. Anjunabeats, the UK Trance record label
My taste in music is visually rendered here by my favourite Trance record label. Trance is my favourite of all music genres, but I like others too like House, Chillout and Techno. When I say Techno, I mean the official genre, by the way. Not the one everyone calls Techno and is acutally Euro!
4. Hiro Nakamura's Sword from Heroes
Heroes is the best show ever, in my opinion. I've become a right little fanboy of the show. I don't own any of the Seasons on DVD yet, but I do have Volume 1 of the Graphic Novel, as I said in a previous blog entry and also the silver version of the "Godsend" necklace, which I think actually brings me luck when I wear it.
Then ofcourse, there's the recognisable Iceferno text and the Ice background, which I mirrored from the middle of the image since it was only half the size of the banner. 
Hope you like it. Feel free to leave comments or perhaps post links to your own in comments! Would be nice to get a Compare 'n' Contrast going .

I showed it to DistantJ on HooplaNet, and he encouraged me to add it to my forum profile on there. 
I love how well it looks! Go here to take a look for yourself.

The psychodelic pig looking thing in the corner is funny. Nice pics too.
Good ol' Shig You know what else I like about that forum? You can post naked ladies. I made the famous "Who would be in your dreambed?" topic. It's the most successful one on the site. 
You did an excellent job on the banner. You chose a good shade of blue for the background (darker shades of blue are my top favorite colors).
And I checked out your profile on HooplaNet. It looks ever better on there, since it's centered on your profile page (and it goes great close to that psychedelic pig Joe was talking about
).
It's all very well making a banner that looks cool, but this time, I wanted to go the extra mile and make something a little more personally, thus the 4 small images were added. And Dragon, you should get Castle Crashers! It's a great game. The Arenas in 1 Player can be a bit tricky, but I always find that leveling up to the next 10 (as in become Level 20 for the 2nd Arena etc.), that you have a guaranteed win on your hands. Of course, it helps if you stock up on potions.
) lol!
I'm glad there's someone else who likes Heroes on here. I would've thought there'd be more, maybe I just don't know the right people
But there's one tomorrow! ...Wait. No there isn't 
I guess cuz've Christmas. Damn BBC. But last week's was the one where Hiro shows Claire the day Noah adopted her from Kaito.
