It's a nice idea, but (this is going to sound cynical, it's nothing against you, OP), what will it do? Everyone already knows about it, and most members here are from the UK anyway - so won't see Maddie.

Matt. You make banners, saying things like "Brian to Win". This won't do anything, and Big Brother is only a gameshow.

i don't think the kip nappers will come across this website and think "OK i will release Madeline"
Chewy. I love your banner. And I am so pleased someone has taken intrest. But I don't think your banner looks official enough. But at least you tried:thumbs:

It's what the website is about, and he's showing his support for a housemate.
Go join a Portuguese search & rescue forum and have that banner.

This could influence people to vote Brian to Win. Like BB5 said, however, the kidnappers are hardly going to come across this website, see "Find Madeleine" banners and then release her are they?

I don't think that someone will see a banner saying "Brian to win" will automatically vote for him to win! But they still have them to SUPPORT Brian.

But like Lauren just said, this website is about Big Brother, therefore it is understandable why people want these banners...

So you're admitting it won't do anything?
Listen, if you really want to do something about Maddie, go on her website, donate a few pound, join a Portuguese website and circulate the official poster... but having a banner on a UK BB website, unfortunately, won't help anything.

Yes these banners will influence people to help find Maddie.
But do you really think users of this forum will pay to fly out to Europe and help find her?
I didn't think so...

No, and it doesn't have to: your avatar and signature is your personal space to put anything you want (as long as it doesn't break rules...)

Someone that goes on a find maddie website is HELPING and showing support. I have bought up this idea to raise AWARENESS and SUPPORT the family.

Yes. For as long as they can. And it is quite right they do so. But this story will leave the headlines and these banners will remind people she is still missing and their is still hope.

It should stay in the headlines until the little girl has been found imo
Yes I do know and I live in Rothley. And I attend the same Church as Gerry and Kate and feel I need to do my part. That is my point exactly. And you have just contradicted yourself completely.

Everyone knows about it already.
And I know my banner or av isn't about BB, but I'm not trying to pass a message across with it.
Your banner isn't going to find Maddie, it isn't showing support, Gerry & Kate won't read it.
Hmmmm............Matt you've seemed to have gone quiet all of a sudden.

it IS showing support. Its showing that people support and care about the little girl

They don't have to to read it to show support. Brian won't read his banners and the twins won't read there's but it is still SHOWING SUPPORT.

Please let's not argue about whether or not it will do any good. If you want to use it, fine. If you don't, that's fine too. Personal choice and all that ........... :thumbs:

Exactly. £100 donation to help find her will help: using a Maddie banner on a Big Brother forum won't.

TooPerfect, your are going over the top. I have just read through this thread, and Lauren in no way however is in the wrong. Jeez, I don't understand how you think anyone without a Maddie banner doesn't support the case?!
If someone uses the banner it shows they choose to support through a banner. If someone doesn't use it it shows they choose not to support maddie through a banner.
And since a banner won't help I won't be using it or making one.
My last post in this thread.

Whatever.
You choose to "support" them on a BB site.
I'll choose to send money to the search and rescue teams.
We'll see which ones Kate & Gerry welcome more, ey.
Edit: And thank you Callum & Matt, also my last post in the thread.
I just wanted to support Madeleine, Gerry , Kate Mccan by using banners.

Did I ever say this is all I have done. I have held fund-raisers at work, sold ribbons at work, sold teddy bears at local schools and donated money so don't you dare say my support will not be welcomed.

I didnt say that. All Im saying is, the OP only suggested it to show support, so its for the people that want to do it
Originally posted by .TooPerfect.

If that's what you want to do, .Too Perfect, then by all means have a banner.
Others may wish to show their support in other ways, such as donating money as Lauren did.
Just because you don't choose to use the banner doesn't mean that you don't care.
I never said that stop putting words in my mouth. I said they choose not to support the case through a banner.

Maybe you should change the message in your banner to something like "Praying for Maddie". "TiBB Campaign to Find Madeleine" sounds like you are actively trying to search for her, which you are not. It's a nice idea to show your support though.

You know, it's ironic that you ask for a Maddie banner, then when BB5 gives one to you you dont use it...
Well obviously if you will look back in this thread you will notice I haven't really had enough support and my ideas to support a missing 4 year old girl have been slated by a few indivuduals. Which is stange. How could you not want to help? :conf2:

That's an extremely offensive thing to say. You're saying because I choose not to have a banner, I don't care about Maddie. How on earth do you know what I or other people may have done to assist the campaign to find Maddie?
If you want a banner, fine, that's your absolute right, but please don't make offensive assumptions about those of us who choose not to have one.

It's not a question of not wanting to help. The fact is that your banner won't be any constructive help whatsoever. That doesn't mean that you should not display it if you want to. But people choose to help in many different ways.
I think putting a few words in your sig is far more tasteful and respectful maybe with a link to the donation website (only if you have donated yourself). Making a pretty banner which looks "official" is the wrong way to go about it because it's the message you want to communicate, not how you tart it up.
A Find Maddie Poster woudn't be a few lines on a blank background.
I guess some people want to support Maddie by using banners and some just dont.

Okay this discussion was over now just piss off.

Watch your language...
As far as I'm concerned as long as the topic is not locked the discussion is not over...
It's nice to know that had I wasted my time making you a banner, it would have gone down the drain because you wouldn't have used it...
supernoodles!
