Banner: division of labour

All right. The basis we are working from is this banner. Various minor modifications are still being discussed, but I think we should give each contributor some freedom in drawing "his" section, rather than endlessly spamming details and trying to get a consensus on absolutely everything.

With that in mind, let's try to divide some tasks. I need volunteers for several different sections. I will update this post with usernames as people pick a section.

Let the volunteering begin!

The deadline for contributions is Friday 23:59 CEST, so don't wait too long with picking a section and drawing it.

I know it's pretty last minute, but any chance to add a South-Holland flair, /u/javacode?

OK, i've assigned it to you in the main sub.

Dank je wel! (I'll go Hungry Austrian again after it though :P)

If nobody else chooses it until i run my cleanup script it'll be removed again. I only add what's actually used in order to keep the response times low. Each flair has to be declarated in CSS and that sums up to the load that has to be transmitted with every page request. There's also a restriction on the max. allowe size for the CSS and we've scratched that on event days several times yet.

But you still keep it in the spite anyway so it's just a matter of seconds to readd?

I'm also pretty sure that some will choose it since it's available now.

I favour acceptable pageload times over a complete collection of obscure provices any time -_-

obscure provices any time -_-

Largest province by inhabitants with 3,5mio and Rotterdam and Den Haag, not that obscure. It's weirder to have Zeeland and Drenthe :)

Anyway, my question still stands. Do you keep all of them in the files or do you always have to edit the spite file? Just out of curiosity.

EDIT:

I favour acceptable pageload

You're right of course, can't add all the shit in such a CSS heavy sub.

I generate a new sprite everytime something changes.
