The two obvious themes in my mind are gears/some sort of complex machine, or computer hardware/circuits.

As an avid Lain Iwakura enjoyer, I added that screenshot because it’s awesome and I think it’d be an extremely cool banner, but there are probably much cleaner designs out there that would be more welcoming to new users. I’m sure you guys will be able to come up with some in short order.

You can look on lemmyverse.net to get a quick overview of some other instance banners.

I really don’t know how the formatting and proportions are supposed to work but I will edit that in as soon as someone clarifies.

Lemmy.world looks like this

    So, by popular request, I’ve added a second batch of seal-based images. These were a lot harder to make, the AI kept insisting on water and blue backgrounds. So in the end, I just went with the flow and tried to make it work in my advantage.


    1: Seal 1 not quite believing what he’s reading


    2: Seal 2 in his cozy cave


    3: Very pleased seal


    4: Mrs. Seal, looking fabulous


    How I feel after spending hours on these seal images :)
