Default Catch Phrase Help

I was wondering how you all would feel about helping me assign "catch phrases" to the banners soon to be implimented at lifesupporters.com?

You'll notice the headers now rotate (all be it, not that well currently) but the goal is to have a new banner in the header area upon each and every page refresh. Here are some of the banners I've created, some on the main page, some not finished yet:












I have all the layered files so I can make whatever changes you folks think would look or sound better. I just want to state though, that I'm looking for simplicity and professionalism which is why the banner images are pretty plain.

Updated with Christmas Headers:

Thanks for the input, it's a great help!

I'll be adding more images here without catch phrases within the upcoming weeks so we can all work on adding the phrases together.

The images above are much too large to be used in the forums as signatures but it has crossed my mind to size them down and offer them as sigs. If you're interested, all the above banners are in rotation on our main page at lifesupporters.com.

I'd prefer it if signature sizes could be confined to the size you see in my sig (400 px x 100 px) just because they don't make the forum too large. Is there any image above you'd prefer to use as a sig?

Just let me know and I'll put it together for you. I'll even add it to your profile if you so desire.

Does anyone else hate this image:



I know my daughter doesn't like it and I really think it's crap too.

Thoughts?

It is not the greatest, but that may be because of the text as well. I imagine it is hard to come up with something great with that text.

Maybe you could find a similar picture but with her shirt covering her belly. That was the only thing that kind of bothered me about it. I like the idea and the text that goes with it.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who feels this way about this banner so I'll be working to change it soon.

BTW, how do you feel about the other banners in rotation?

I like them. Although some would argue the praying for better parents is a bit heavy. That is why I like it though.

Actually, the whole idea behind that banner is to get bad parents thinking. I'd much rather have a bad parent consider how they are affecting their child instead of having a child suffer.

Although this place is very much a self help support forum I'm also big on helping kids feel special and not like little inconveniences which is sadly quite common.

I too would hope bad parents would recognize themselves as bad and work to fix it. I hate to see innocent children suffer.
