A modest suggestion.
If it is about promoting a chess variant using images, wouldn't it be better to use animated GIFs, like, for example, the one I insert below made by Hans Bodlaender in 1998 to illustrate The Bishops Conversion Rule?
I certainly know that everything editors do is voluntary. But I can't help but ask, is it very difficult to create an animated GIF? Or is the web space too "expensive" to not be able to make a square banner instead of a rectangular one?
If the reason is that the suggested banner would be unsightly to the taste of those who are promoting variants (since it would look grotesque), that's fine... I haven't said anything!
