Help me to improve my new banner!

[Zaborg]

--------------
This is the first version I made yesterday:

------------------------
v2, made today, 28.09.2010

First version of the 2nd banner 😀
Now I need serious ideas, I'm not a creative person...So this is so random...
---------------------------------
What should I add to it? Or change? Or make a whole new one?
(This is pure gif, I don't know flash at all, made with Photoshop)

Thanks!

is that banner going on top of your forum or is that an advertising banner. It is quite good for an advertising banner but for a forum banner, you need something different

Why should anyone add a banner like that to the header?
It's an ad...
It's not quite good, that's why I need help to make it better 🙂

Just a suggestion.. Get rid of the white box, and make it white text, looks better then a box..
