I wish i was as creative as all of you.. this isnt easy0 -
Down SIzers & Cut the Caboose & Hungry Hungry Hippos are all cute.0

Personally I am a fan of the candy/van one, but I don't think it pertains to wait loss, just amusing. I guess I vote for the caboose one. I have a request, if someone makes a banner ( I don't know how), please don't make it too big.0
-
I can make banners (if the team wants one).
And yes would def need to be smaller (than my current) lol0 -
Thatd be much appreciated0
-
This is what I've come up with for our banner.
I will post the code after the tag so you can add it to your signatures.
Be sure to change the IMG to lower case, BOTH at the beginning & ending of the code so it shows up.

I'm ready, LET'S DO THIS!
Um...I was perusing other tribal team forums and I saw where the rules, point accumulations and week 1 exercises were already up.
Do we have another forum that I've not seen, or do we just not have them up yet?0 -
