Somebody's been having some fun...

[Nicolas King]

It seems as though some of our resident pranksters have gotten into our Admin CP and are up to their usual antics this time they've changed the site banner (on the default theme) to something that only they could think up.
In order to fix/reverse these changes we'll need to know what exactly was altered. So we need your help, HNZ, and we'll make it a competition, too. If you notice the changes made to the site banner from the old one simply PM your answers to the BallotBox account. Whoever gets the most right answers the quickest will win. However, knowing those pranksters, they'll make more changes to the banner as time goes on! If you notice more changes as time passes simply respond to your PM again with the added changes in your reply. (All PMs you send are saved in your "Archive" folder. )
Some changes will be a lot more subtle than others, so keep your eyes always peeled and don't trust anybody but yourself. So help us fix the site banner and put HNZ back the way it should be!

P.S: I would subsequently like to thank HelenaZF of our affiliated board (Big Boards Resources) for making the altered banner for us, and of course making the

Nicktator (Nic-Tater) icon which will now be finding a spot in my signature.
