    Greetings everyone. It has come to my attention that some people are feeling "left-out" of the banner by not having a character depicted that could represent them. Since I used all Star Wars characters, I felt that everyone could identify with at least one character or see one that they liked. Nonetheless...

    The original banner I had made had the following characters in it:
    Darth Vader
    Luke Skywalker
    Mara Jade
    Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ghost Obi-Wan)
    Salacious Crumb
    Lando Calrissian
    Boba Fett
    The above-mentioned characters are set against a Hoth backdrop that has the Minneapolis skyline lingering far off in the distance. On the right of the banner, there is a shield generator with some approaching AT-AT's. The basic idea for the banner was to subtly tie it into Minnesota, so Hoth seemed a perfect setting.

    Anyway, despite my feelings on the current banner and the work I put into it, I have decided that I will now push the Hoth theme to the fullest extent by only incorporating characters from the Empire Strikes Back, and more specifically only those that appeared on Hoth.

    The characters depicted in this new banner will be as follows:
    Darth Vader
    Luke Skywalker
    Princess Leia
    Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ghost Obi-Wan)
    Han Solo
    Chewbacca
    I hope this new character arrangement will make everyone happy. I should have the banner done within the next two days, at which time I will post it here so that everyone may see it before it goes up.

    I guess that's all. Thanks for your time.

    I would like to thank you for all the time and hard work you've put into these banners. Hopefully we can put the other banner to use elsewhere, maybe when we get the site up for "The Minnesota Force". That way all your work won't be for nothing. :D

    I should have it finished tonight. Then I'll upload it to my site and provide a link to it from here in the boards. That way everyone can have a look at it before it goes up.

    Really, everyone, thanks a lot for the praise. Most of you haven't even seen it yet (a few saw the in-progress), but you already appreciate my work. Makes me feel really special. :D
