I like the new artwork, but if I'd known the regional banners were going to change I would've really liked a chance to take a screenshot of my old lair header. I feel a bit the same way about Baldwin; the new art is cool and all, but I wish I'd gotten a screenshot before the last clue to his pearlcatcher origin disappeared.
The suggestion then: give players a little warning before these things happen in case people want to screen-cap a memory.
An alternate suggestion from a discussion that took place outside the forums: offer an old-art gallery for players to go to when they want to be nostalgic about Baldwin or the seaside Light banner or whatever.

Your old lair header is here!
"but I wish I'd gotten a screenshot before the last clue to his pearlcatcher origin disappeared."
The....the pearl is still there? Like, it's always been in the "Create New Item" menu ever since Baldwin became a Bogsneak.
Anyway, no support. It's fine not to be told that kind of thing in advance, because it ruins surprises and all. I don't think Id have enjoyed the anniversary as much if I've been told about the new banner - I would have had expectations and all.

I think the idea of an old art gallery would be nice. Seeing the site changes in general is cool, especially since some of the old art has/had been up for years at this point.
Not sure about the warning since like the above mentions, it'd ruin the surprise, which is kind of the point, and setting up expectations can lead to people being even more disappointed, imo (hence why they told us it would be lowkey this year, yk?)

I personally would rather it be a surprise, just putting in my two cents. To be fair though, I'm not a particularly sentimental person.

The FR wiki usually has all of the old art, even including the whole rotten egg thing that was here way back. I would check there to see if the banner is still there.
No support on warning though. A surprise would be spoiled otherwise. It's kind of the whole point of a surprise. An old art gallery would be fine though.

I would far prefer an onsite art gallery that contains ALL the art, old and new, on the site rather than a warning.

I prefer the surprise, however I fully support an old art gallery.

Like many others I prefer the surprise but would loved to see an archive of all the old site art
Right now if you want to look at the old art you can find it on the FR wiki
