True, but the version that used to be above the forums is longer — it has Mr Pink-Whistle over at the left end, plus a group of children from one of the farm books (I can't place the illustration just now), as seen in the version Pete has posted. I do hope we can get it reinstated...

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

I agree with Chrissie! I really miss the familiar banner, which is a bit of a surprise as I never thought much about it before!

The children are from The Children at Green Meadows. I'm very fond of the complete banner too!

It's a thing of beauty and no mistake. Hopefully we'll get it back on the forums some day. In the meantime yes it's readily available on the main site.

Okay, the banner is back, and colors mostly fixed. I don't have ALL the colors fully sorted out (eg. there's blue border around this message box I'm typing in right now) but I'll get back to it another day. Right now I need to pack for vacation, leaving tomorrow. Bye for now!

Thank you, Keith. Have a wonderful vacation!

On the banner I recognize Barney and Miranda, the kids from the Adventure series (Sea of Adventure cover) and Mr. Goon.

Fantastic! Many thanks Keith and enjoy your vacation.
PS for me Mr. Goon is the "star" of the banner.

Great to see the forum banner and the link to the cave back again. Many thanks to you Keith.
You are without doubt probably the 2nd best web technician in the world! :D

Enjoy your holiday, Keith! Thanks for all the work you have out in. Can't have been a pleasure as you have had to sort out all your business sites as well. I'm wondering who the best web technician in the world is...
