Please remember the lesson of Worm's forum and keep a plain vanilla version around for those of us who are more interested in the content (and getting to read it quicker instead of waiting for a bunch of images to download) than surface flash.

I plan on leaving the themes we have now.
I just want a nice Dune themed background, no surfing Jesus or Flying Spaghetti Monsters, or pink unicorns...
I imagine a night sky with the two moons and mountain ridge with the banner, sand or dunes in the foreground. Something like that.

There's an image of one of Dune's book covers that's from the movie, exactly like that, the two moons with dunes. Dont know if i can find a usable one though, i have it in a pdf version around here somewhere.

I never liked that poster, for exactly the same reasons as Chig. It just looks wrong. But I suppose that's fitting, considering the film it represents.
