Each site would need to submit their own graphic or request one. A text ad does nothing. Honestly the age of text ads is over. They do not work anymore.
Becomes A TNO Agent
On the issue of EZBoard affiliation pages, I have a few possible solutions.
The first depends on whether the board in question has a member - part of the staff or the memberbase - who has image hosting. It wouldn't be hard to whip up a simple page in dreamweaver or any other webdesign program, then host it. A link to said page could be added in a sidebar or with other navigation links.
The second uses googlepages, and gmail accounts. Googlepages is stupid easy to use, offers some nifty page layouts, and allows you to upload images. Nice thing about this option is that it's free. It wouldn't be hard for a board to get their own gmail account, thus opening up the option to use googlepages. Like the first idea, a link in the navi menu or on a sidebar could link to the affiliation page.

there are plenty of free host sites as well which most of us use for avatars, banners etc.
paranoia paranoia everybody's coming to get me...
I don't think it would be a problem to specify that you would like the graphic for the other boards to be done in a certain color scheme.

Tais Voru:That would defeat the purpose, but you could have each board make more than one banner. I'm sure there will be some banners that won't look great on some of the stylesets at Fans, since we have something like 30 different styles.
But what if the submitted graphics just plain don't look good on all boards? The boards should have the right to simply use the accompanying write ups and links instead.
Blink If You Can Hear Me
Perhaps, for simplicity, make all banners monotone to fit in with a black and white or black and grey central hub page. Or lime green if we go that way.
Or have them submit the graphics as PSDs. The organizers would then change underlying hues to match any skins required.

Each should be a set size as well for the uniform look and any text describing has to be say less than 250 words or something
Back with a Vengeance
EDIT: Already suggested in the time it took me to post, thanks to my new truck getting here. 
Think we should imbed Star Wars theme music audio into the page, or would that be going overboard?
EDIT: Another suggestion. Could the boards list like in their description, a one sentence line describing how far advanced their R&D program is, if they have one. Like here at TRF, we are starting to go from average into complicated. At SWF, I know with what Telan and Khendon have cooked up that complicated is no longer a descriptive word.

Suggestion: Everyone's banner represented as a link?
