Hey AbdallahTerro, I don't know if you'd prefer me to post this elsewhere, but I made a bunch of custom banners made for widescreen displays. There are forty-six in all. I used many of the banners from the OP for custom sound. I didn't add any extra logos or information to the banners, but I also uploaded the artwork in high resolution in case anyone would want to use it.

Ok I uploaded them to: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/101209384/altbnr/ID3.bnr
I prefer to keep the original ones because they have the same alternating icon template, also several original banners have custom sounds too

I'll update my signature soon to include your post and the new link
Thanks again for your contribution ledgerewskie

Edit: looks like the suspension was lifted today, so downloading of the banners can be resumed.

News:
Dropbox direct link are no longer working in Wiiflow and USBL-GX (https)
So a new repository is now available for the banners at gxarena.com

So what you need to do:
1. For Wiiflow users:
Download latest wiiflow mods from my sig
in case you still have trouble delete /apps/wiiflow/wiiflow.ini
or go to [general] section in wiiflow ini and delete the CUSTOM_BANNER_URL line
or replace that line with
custom_banner_url=http://nintendont.gxarena.com/banners/{gameid}.bnr
the new banner repository link is:
2. USB Loader GX users
1. Open \apps\usbloader_gx\GXGlobal.cfg and edit theCustomBannersURL (should be the last line) to look like this


Hopefully the updated URL will be added later to WiiFlow and GX official commits

I updated the ini file in Wiiflow to download banners from this active repository, thanks for that.

I noticed the sound file for Resident Evil on GC isn't the best quality when I select it from the Wiiflow menu. Is there a better quality version with no background noise? It sounds like white noise in the background on the one I downloaded.

This thread and the work in it is amazing...! :D
Thank You!

How do I make custom GC-banners for Backuploaders (for WiiFlow)? I've read the tutorials - but they create .wads, for backuploaders I would need .bnr...
And: How am I able to change the Music in some of these banners?

Customiize mii is all what you need
if you have a wad this tool can "extract" it you'll get a folder with many *.app files, the first one isthe banner, so just rename to ID3.bnr or ID6.bnr
as for the sound customiize mii can change that too by adding a "wav" track as either a A-B track or a loop,
everything is in the tutorials if you want more details

    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most of the time yea I knew, I watch and read the news regularly, but sometimes the Hollywood BS stuff, like concerning actors slip by me. I don't follow most Hollywood BS (example: the Kardasians)

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa there were relevant issues before south park was made, that's why i think a south park prequel/spinoff would be great. Randy and his friends in their child hood

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, like them running in high school together, getting into stuff, and how they got hitched and had kids. And how the town of South Park was back then compared to now. That would be cool to see.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @salazarcosplay if they made a prequel, it would still be about current issues, cause it doesn't make sense to make it about stuff that happened 30 years ago that nobody cares about anymore
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's too late
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the older south park episodes about particular issues usually age poorly since the topic is no longer relevant
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    an exception is giant douche vs turd sandwich, that's always relevant :P
