User blog comment:NOBODY/Wikia Spotlight - we've been accepted! Now to choose an image.../@comment-5055855-20131026142913/@comment-3060206-20131027031348

It is a nice collage, however, I feel it is unsuitable for a banner. The squished size dimensions aren't too big of a deal, but having all the characters shifted to the left because of the cable car looks unbalanced because the majority of the characters aren't centred.

I'm also bothered by the fact that a white background was chosen to put these characters on. If it is still a work in progress, I hope you plan on adding a Nitrome-themed background, or at least one with some colour in it, because a white background just doesn't appeal. This was a similar issue the wiki had when it picked the Touchy background to be its promotion picture for the slider. The image itself was okay, but the background was transparent, which turned black on Wikia.com. Nitrome Wiki had a very good time blending in against the other wikis whose pictures stood out.

The banner should not only represent Nitrome as a means of linking to Nitrome Wiki, but also, at the same time, be appealing to anyone who happens to see this wiki advertised at the bottom of the page. If spacing is an issue, then removing the Nitrome logo would be a more suitable approach, perhaps. Even using a partial screenshot from a more recent game might work as well.
