Someone had a great idea to rotate the header image!  However my five year old has more design ability than I do, so we're going to open it up to the community.  Here are the rules:

1) You must use the attached template image at the end of this post
2) Your imagery must be somehow TF2 related
3) Please nothing with too much blood or guts
4) Staff will have the final decision over what gets shown or not
5) Please include your username in 8 point text somewhere so you can have the glory
6) It's OK to widen the image but keep in mind that this is about as much as an 800x600 monitor will fit
7) You can replace the 'Welcome to the Team Fortress 2 Fort' FONT or COLOR of text, but not the words themselves
8) You must keep the horizontal striped colors (tan, yellow and black) or it won't blend into the existing site properly

We'll rotate between the chosen images on every page load.  If we get enough submissions maybe I'll add some kind of voting system to it. 
That's all, I hope it's fun :-) 

Now here's the template image:

Those who do this would also want to make sure the left and right edges are not cut off.  Like on Urg's image, if that were to be stuck at the top as the banner, the guys arms would be cut off which wouldn't look too good.

That looks cool, but that wouldn't blend in with the background either because of the pattern.  If you were to maybe fade the edges of the pattern a bit, then it would make it blend in more, otherwise, you'd have to keep the original background color without the pattern in the background.

Now notice if the banner were to be placed at top, it would look like this...

Notice how the background color doesn't blend in with the banner.
