The two obvious themes in my mind are gears/some sort of complex machine, or computer hardware/circuits.
As an avid Lain Iwakura enjoyer, I added that screenshot because it’s awesome and I think it’d be an extremely cool banner, but there are probably much cleaner designs out there that would be more welcoming to new users. I’m sure you guys will be able to come up with some in short order.
You can look on lemmyverse.net to get a quick overview of some other instance banners.
I really don’t know how the formatting and proportions are supposed to work but I will edit that in as soon as someone clarifies.
Lemmy.world looks like this
This discussion will run for at least a week, and then we can take the most upvoted submissions in this thread and put them up for an official vote.
It’s a true favourite of mine as well, and has led me to want to read R.D. Laing’s work with schizophrenia, as apparently it was highly influential in the creation of SE Lain.
I struggle to get through it on many watchings, but occasionally I make it to the end, it often feels like the ominous parts of an acid trip, haha
Out of curiosity, are you familiar with Lainchan? It’s a rather slow Chan site, but very much captures the feel of Lain.
Let’s love all love Lain.
Nah, didn’t know about Lainchan. Thanks for the suggestions. Totally agree about getting bogged down in the middle sometimes. It brings me great joy to find other people who love Lain.
