Last month we set a starry banner image for Matariki. It would be good to have some suggestions for new banner images.

So please post some suggestions, if we can get a few different ones to line up for the next few months (changing each month) that would be great. Original content encouraged but not required!

Upvote the ones you like and we’ll try to prioritise them. We will start with a new image from next month (September).

Just so we know what we’re talking about, this is the current banner image. You see it when you go to the community page (though it can look different depending on app or how you’re accessing it):

    Didn’t John Key’s favourite turn out to resemble the ISIS flag a little too much?

    I think there were some interesting options submitted but the Powers That Be selected some pretty dull ones for everyone to vote on.

      They tried to say the silver fern flag looked too much like the Isis flag, but that was just bullshit and the real reason it wasn’t an option was NZ rugby had blocked it
