Possible to get a more attractive banner on the sub?

Possible to get a more attractive banner on the sub?

Edit: Mod u/the_domokun has posted a proposed banner in this comment: https://www.reddit.com/r/DungeonsAndDragons35e/comments/1tcmxvb/comment/oltnyu1/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

The empty grace space makes it look quite second rate unfortunately, and makes a poor first impression. There is so much iconic 3rd edition artwork that I think could be used to make a banner. Not savvy enough to do so myself but I am sure it could be whipped up by someone in 5 minutes or less.

Some suggestions:

- The Jeff Easley DM screen for 3.0: https://www.tsrarchive.com/3e/3e2-dms-screen.jpg
- Justin Sweet DM screen for 3.5 (maybe the best choice for banner): https://www.tsrarchive.com/3e/3e2-dms-dlx-screen.jpg
- Bastion of Broken Souls adventure cover by Jeff Easley: https://jeffeasleyart.com/store/BOBS/bastion-of-broken-souls
- Forge of Fury adventure cover by Todd Lockwood: https://gamenightblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/forge-fury-3e-cover-clean-full.jpg

The 3.5e D&D logo should stay somewhere on the banner image (center, top center, bottom center or bottom right). In a smaller size of course.

Who still loves and runs 3e era Forgotten Realms?

If so, what keeps you coming back compared to other settings you could use and what have some of your campaigns been like over the years?

I know that Midgard material started to become available in Kobold Quarterly before the campaign setting was originally released for Pathfinder. Was this early enough that there is 3.5 material in the magazines or did it start as Pathfinder material in the magazines?

Whether it is the lore, worldbuilding, aesthetics etc. I am curious about those of you who don't enjoy Eberron and what turns you off of it?

For the record, I do enjoy it, but am interested in opposing views and conversations.

And, to offer some additional counterpoints and perhaps some data points, answer these if you feel like it:

  1. What is your favorite D&D setting?
  2. What is your favorite edition of the game?
  3. When did you get into D&D?

Early on we saw a lot of fans of Planescape, Darksun and Spelljammer move into Eberron upon release.

What other settings for D&D (from any era), official or 3rd party, give you as much enjoyment?

For me it is the original 3e Scarred Lands (not the new version, a shadow of its former self) and Dark Sun (both 2e and the 3e material from Athas.org). 3e Ravenloft is up there as well, a beautiful interpretation of the setting with very nice books.

I am a huge fan of my own iteration of Greyhawk, but that isn't quite the same as these more niche settings.
