The urban influence that lettering lends to the piece is exquisite.

He also chose to connect with the target audience, internet users. He is obviously fluent in their language, as "OMG IT ROXXORS" merely returns a hit for "it" in the old Oxford English Dictonary. He's on the bleeding edge of the youthful mind.

He also shows disdain for the established art community by making the button names be non-aligned. The artist doesn't adhere to some stuffy brand of elitist art snobbery and the slogan "Too much empty space!" obviously refers to the empty space at the soul of every artist. This piece will never be a banner for this site because it should be in a museum!

In conclusion, Suck it FiestaHQ.

I have put the banners in this post so everyone can look at them. Then select the appropriate number and vote. It is important to point out that the last one cannot be voted on, since it did not meet the requirement. However, I found it funny and still wanted to include it. So, look them over and get to voting. Remember, this will be the banner for the next year.

D looked pretty good, but I didn't like that I had the same font. Sorry, whoever made it, please don't be offended. I still love the graphics.
