=][= Banner of the Month - October 2025 =][=

[Brother Tyler]

Okay, we've had mixed success with the themed banners, but I want to give it another shot. Within the Warhammer 40,000 hobby community, October is affectionately known as "Orktober." We're going to go with that theme. Your banner should reflect the Orky race in all its warlike glory. You can include "Bolter and Chainsword" or "Bolter & Chainsword" or "B&C" as text. Alternatively, you may feature "Orktober" or something else suitably Orky.

 

You can submit your banner entry by uploading your image to the site banner submissions gallery and posting a reply in this discussion showing both the image, the image URL, and a link to your blog (if applicable). You can see more information about the banner of the month here.

 

The winner will be selected by the community in a poll.

 

The deadline for submissions will be Tuesday, 23 September (i.e., whenever I log in on the morning of Wednesday, 24 September*).

 

 

 

* Or whenever I get around to it since I'm old and forget things.

I noticed that no one else submitted any banners, so I figured I'd give this one a shot even though it's past the deadline:

I don't have an Ork blog (yet), but these guys fight Orks and I'm working on updating them now, so this is as good a blog link as any, I suppose:

(assuming the late submission is okay, that is)

... half a day late, half a toof short (sorry, missed the topic), but worked these up and thought one of these might fit, even if they are a bit late:

Just a suggestion for people doing banners. If anyone has the board extended out (you can change that setting in your profile), the current banners all have a harsh line between the end of the banner and the black background. 

 

 

In the past, when @madscuzzy or @BLOODSAINT were doing the banners, they all had a black fade on the far right side (if their background wasn't black already) to make that transition a little less jarring.
