Hi again,
I didn't intend for the banners to be removed, just /reviewed/.
Everything goes through the review process. It's our best means of
normalising out subjectivity.

Sure, I have no problem with toning things down, but the web2.1 "wave"

I would disagree, Coke and Pepsi were sporting the wave in print long
before most people knew the web wasn't just the thing between their fingers.
But I'm not trying to defend my design. You're right, it isn't optimal.
I admit that happily.
Banners are ephemeral, are meant to catch the eye, and yes, sometimes
crass.
Yes, sometimes they are. But it doesn't mean they /have/ to be.
If everyone was still trying to "out-crass" each other, there'd be a lot
more animated-GIFs around. And Lolcats.
And banners may be ephemeral, but a bad impression lasts a lifetime.
If you want "conservative", then sure, not a problem either. It just
won't bring in the crowds like a good ballyhoo.
True, but I don't MAKE the rules, I just play by them. Like a team does.
I don't want conservative; I want quality+consistency.

You should probably sit down before reading my next comment.
