Banners and HBOT 2.0 [Freebuild]

Hello everyone,

With Hafnium's permission I've decided to rewrite HBOT (at least the banner-building functionality, for now). As it is nearing completion, we're going to need some banner images to use in our rotation! Here are the specifications you should follow:

Size: 256 x 37
Format: BMP preferred (not 16 or 32 bit), though I can convert if you use another format.
Palette: Image

If you stray from the palette, that's okay, because I've implemented an algorithm to find the closest colors from the palette anyway. Here are a few examples I made a long time ago using the old palette:

Themes should include the "fCraft.net" name, "catch phrases" related to our server, helpful advice, etc.

Have fun! Maybe we can have a contest for this in the future?

This was a quick 15 minutes. I plan to make one for each service and upload them here, but here is AoS for now (note that the link doesn't work yet)

Wrong size and pretty sure that's not following the color requirements.

Are you dithering Astelyn? If not, they HAVE to stick with the palette or it'll look like shit.
