[Discussion] New sidebar banner submissions for sh.itjust.works (sh.itjust.works)

A recent post in c/main has sparked interest in finding a new sidebar banner for our instance. The current one is AI generated, and was chosen by our users from a bunch of other AI-generated submissions. It has been three years since then. Also, the mood toward AI has shifted. Maybe it's time for something new, and human-made?

This post is a place to collect submissions for new banner artwork. Put your art in the comments below! We plan to leave this post open for two weeks, and hold a vote on Friday, Sept. 11.

Hello

I have no idea what you'll think of this one.

I find it funny, but :

  • I borrowed the image from Norm of the North ; I’m not sure if I’m allowed to do that, even with a few minor tweaks.
  • I’m confused about the colors. Red and white, okay, that’s Canada. I wasn’t sure about the third one, so I went with the blue of Quebec...
