Certainly B, even though I think both are great.

I like the way option B offers some homage to where Prog came from; I think this is important to our site's purpose.

Option "B" seems to me to represent better. It has more life and it is always nice to see many of the icons that are part of the whole concept of the progressive genre.

That's probably something that fell off a charm bracelet, Ken, not an actual house. |

What's your handle/username over at Stevehoffman.tv? I sometimes lurk around there when I'm thirsty for some technical (or simpy much much geekier than PE and PA combined) discussion about prog remasters or production techniques in music of the past. :P

I voted for B since it's more similar to my avatar on the Steve Hoffman forum. ;)

While I love many of the bands represented in banner B, I have to say I prefer banner A. "B" presents a preconceived notion of what constitutes Progressive Rock, whereas "A" is more open to user interpretation, which is more in line with the nature of the site.

I never really paid much attention to these, but since looking at them closer, I think I like A better. Banner B seems too "busy" to me. Uncluttering it a little and making the website name bigger might improve it.
I took a magnifying glass and found a house inside my house, proof that soap has travelled in time.

Banner A looks more professional but also a little bland to me. Banner B has some undeniable early-internet charm.

I know the current banner was done by a guy named darkshadeof I believe. If you go to the homepage here and click on "About Us" at the top and scroll down you'll see some of his other collages. I actually bought the RUSH one from him but have never framed it, still have it though.

Also B for me.
What's the history behind these banners? Who created them? and when?

As a nerd, I love both, but voted for B, because I'm a big nerd
