Ok, This is really dumb but it's been bothering me so I thought I would ask.
When you open the prog archives home page there are band logos all across the top artfully arranged. 
I know most of them but there are a few I don't recognize. 

1. Guy with a pointy hat looks like he's playing a tympani to the right of the Hemispheres dude. 

2. Girl in a blue dress to the left of the Marillion kid

3. Something I can't make out, maybe a weird looking creature to the right of the Marillion kid. 

4. Ghostly looking face just above the weird creature in item #3 & to the left of the ITCOTKC guy.

5. Someone walking in a white shirt next to the mushroom, also to the left of the ITCOTKC guy.

Any help you can provide would be appreciated. ( Maybe I can finally get some sleep tonight!) 

    Thank You

I don't recognize any of those ones either, but wasn't it Jake Kobrin who put that banner together?

No, it was not Jake Kobrin, it was Abel Adames aka darksideof.

The answer on #4 is the album cover of Brain Salad Surgery.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Question #1: The blokie with the pointed heli-hat playing the tympani appears on various Gong albums, mostly compilations.

I can answer two of them:

#2 is from the cover of the album Images & Words by Dream Theater, a popular prog metal band.

#4 is an image from the album Brain Salad Surgery by Emerson, Lake & Palmer.

I also have a question though, what's the structure beneath the Magma logo and above the Signify lady?

Also I think #5 is Rael from the cover of The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway by Genesis, I could be wrong though.

No, that's Rick Wakeman from the cover of his Six Wives of Henry XIII album.
