I hope someone comes up with something more clever because even though they're alright I'm not totally feeling those.

These are all good! Except the one that was like a thesis, perhaps needs a refresher on what a gang tag is.

Anyway, so that people with intermittent posting schedules are able to get involved, I'm setting the deadline for the name/text of the tags to 1 week's time, so for me that's Wednesday 13th November, 8am GMT.

After that I'll set up some voting and we can move on to images.

If you want to post images along with your submissions at this stage (like the grover house one) that's totally fine, but don't feel that you have to. That'll be dealt with in the next phase of construction.

For a tip on what common sizes and contents of gang tags are, look to the left (if you're on a browser). They'll be about that size, animation is fine.

It's a loss edit that best approaches that approximates that no two windows on groverhaus match.

By now, I should know that anything on this forum with four panels is a loss edit, but I just never learn.

Fair warning, I discovered when I added my latest gang tag that due to HTML length limits in the avatar text, you can't have more than three.

Which makes me very sad because I should at least have a blacksmith/metalworking megathread tag and a woodworking tag, but I can't give up my other tags!!! :negative:

ohh, another one for the arduino thread, actually coined in a yospos thread a long while ago: Bit Janitor... maybe 8-bit Janitor, which would be a good username.

I like Sparkies though for electronics in general. It's common trade shorthand for referring to electricians, but I think it works for electronics too.
