We had some wonderfully colourful banners: thanks and awe go to jacedesbff for Banner One, endeni for Banner Three, and allisnow for our November Banner, Banner Two!

December Challenge: You possibly saw this one coming, but this month's challenge is to create something seasonal and befitting our upcoming Secret Santa. This could be Christmassy or other holiday season or New year, it could be cold or warm weather, interpret as you will!

December Deadline: Monday 25th November

Here’s how the banner challenge works: we set you a theme on the first of each month. People then make banners and comment with them to that month’s post – all comments will be screened; comments without banners in them will then be unscreened. (I can’t reply to the comments with banners in them without unscreening them, so anything you want a response to needs to be in a separate comment.) Banners will then all be saved to the community’s photobucket, so don’t worry about hotlinking or broken links. There will be a limit for sending banners in, something like two to three weeks. Then we’ll post all of the banners anonymously and everyone in the community can vote for their favourite (including the makers, but you do only get one vote each). That new banner is then our banner for the following month. Hopefully we’ll keep enough interest to be able to this monthly!

The Rules:
1) Everyone is invited to play, seriously, everyone, the more the merrier!
2) Banners must be safe for work.
3) Banners must have a width of 800 and a height of 350 and preferably be a png or jpg file.
4) We will make your banners anonymous, so please don’t tell or show anyone what you’ve made. Once the winner has been chosen though you’re free to share your banner wherever you like. (So, for example, if you make a banner for August’s challenge you’ll be free to do whatever you like with it from August 1st.)
5) When new films etc come out (Iron Man 3, Thor 2, Agents of SHIELD) please don’t use images from those until we say it’s safe so no one gets spoiled! (If you want to use something and you're not sure if it counts as a spoiler, PM me.)
6) You can submit no more than 3 banners (for now).
7) Banners should contain both Clint and Natasha (unless challenged otherwise).

As stated, all comments to this post will be screened. Comments that don’t contain banners will be unscreened. So feel free to ask questions, give us feedback, and all that jazz :)
