Okay, the last banner I posted with a new not-backwards clock! :P

Call me Lydia’s (26) first one is still my favorite of all of the banners. Sorry everyone else, they are all great.
Allison of #113–looks awesome…except I can’t get my eyes off the backward numbers on the clock–how did they get like that?? :)
Can’t wait to see the winners…maybe new banners should cycle through like OfficeTally quotes every time we hit “refresh”…
Good luck picking a winner, Jennie!
My second entry…

PS-You can’t see it, but it does include the white, 2 pixel border…
Here’s my entry. It’s simple, but I like it. I feel it captures a classic Office icon…

Wow, excellent job Neal! I like Ryan, Kevin, Jan, and Toby’s the BEST.
Okay, so I got a little carried away and made a banner for each notable character if there was a banner randomizer. I hope you guys like them!

I just realized that my last entry was 23kb, and now I could only get it down to 20.93kb. Is that okay??

Tried to do something simple :)
30% Frontal Attack - I LOVE YOURS!!! They’re different than all of the rest - very creative.
My final banner! This one is in honor of the actors, rather than the characters, of The Office.
Slightly different version of my previous banner
