The retrobrite one is brilliant. Works so well.

Funky! I like the CMYK one too.

I don't have any more photos for the CMYK, I also like that one... the color match is almost perfect, anyone who tries to take CMY photos knows it's really hard to capture that

Daylight might not improve it, the background will turn more bright while dark backgrounds work better.

The art of good banners is complex indeed. I never know quite what to expect until I post a few in this thread and try them out. (Click on any appropriate graphic in this thread, and you can preview it, up top.)

The CMYK would be nice if there was not this harsh lightning, and it looks a little bit warped - or somehow stretched.

nop, it's from original photo unstretched:

Just add nice, soft, natural lighting! Then leave some desk at the left of the image for the DT logo in the crop and you should be good.

I don't know which ones are going to work (if any)... anyway here are some more maker's pictures

I like the 2nd and last mx green

I'm afraid flash is a no-go for Apple and photo nerds alike. An Mu, of course, might be both.

Ditto here too. I'll get them in circulation when I'm at my desk.

We do need a good M0110 shot though. I must shoot mine when the sun next emerges here in Noordor. Is that keyboard yours, Matt?

it is mine and modded

Lowpoly style?

look closer, you'll find my report as well

Oh yeah, I remember that. Thought you'd sold it since. I got mine from Snoopy when he had two for sale and you were already after a replacement!

As ماء asked for it, here's some crops. Most or all of these will not likely work, but I gotta try them somewhere…
Hmm, the first three aren't too bad actually. I'll redo the last one to see if I can cram in that six colour Apple some-whichway.

There you go! Received it a couple of days ago, in the wrong box but in great condition!
Hopefully I will post pics soon!

finally a sunny afternoon in Portugal.

So much better!

Which one of my crops looks best to you folk? I'm thinking of opening up Photoshop for a better shot at both Mac and HHKB logos in view, while leaving DT's readable in front.

Chzel's M0110 has a while to earn itself a banner quite yet! Like maybe coming out the box…

thanks @Mu

from your pics, I vote the last one!

That looks really nice! Great choice for the background too

@muir, I believe the best if the 4th shot

@Muirium just updated a new one, less zoomed to better capture Ctrl+Alt caps

Okay, but you only get ONE! I'll swap it out later, once I've gotten the crop of my own picture sorted out.

sure! just want to share the better one

Done. And allllmost done…
Yes, the secret of all good photography is: more photography! The same goes for edits. I hope. And now some rotation.
It's nae good. She cannae take it, captain! I'm going to need to find some more pictures to do any better. Anyway, I'll pick something…

Seems interesting!
