Gab, I intended the first meaning… but I’m always up for a good orgy. Of course, if we were overthinking the orgy… wouldn’t that just be a bunch of people in a room reading the Kama Sutra? With one person in the corner reading the Song of Solomon instead, and blogging about religious freedom in sexual expression, and another researching the relative effectiveness of different brands of prophylactics, and one very frazzled person figuring out how to mic everyone for the podcast??

IMO it should be called “OverCon”.

I don’t think I’ll ever be over con.

::laughs:: Oh, Wrather, you expect me to know/understand HTML? That’s funny, you slay me. (And I hope I didn’t sound snarky just now- it was meant to be the hysterical laughter of the absolutely helpless.)

Sigh, in all seriousness, I guess by “size,” a banner would be big enough to span across a profile page. Perhaps the size of a YouTube embed but a little wider? And I think I know what the finished product of the “black field” thing would look like, if I’m interpreting you correctly (although I don’t speak French and trust you’re not being pervy- something about one banner?) (;p)- but alack, alas, no idea how to do that without some pre-fabricated thing I could copy-paste.

@Genevieve: Wait, you think the fans should be called “Overthiking It Orgy,” or that there should BE an Overthinking It Orgy? Hmm. Maybe that could be Overthinkingit.com’s personal Woodstock. You know, the “event.” Hmm, and hmm again.

If we’re making love, not war, then I vote for the Overthinking It Orgy. Just sayin’.

What size banner do you want, Gab? I’m sure we could do one.

Or you could just do a black field that says “Ceci n’est pas une banner” in a handwriting font and links to us.

Oh, since we’re talking about advertising y’all (ish) (and not to be a nag): Banner?

Overthinking It Collective is the name of my improvisational noise side project that just crossed over to a larger mainstream audience.

@Schmoid: I like “a culture of overthinkers.” It reminds me of yogurt.
