How about a marbled background using grey, green and black/blue? Or something like that...what colors come to mind when you think Kansas and gunslinger?
(p.s.: I'm also in love with that Viner hand font that I used for the "under construction" sign..hint hint)
in design class they not only taught us what color set off the other..the red-green
blue-yellow orange-purple thing..but also that torn or jagged edge next to smooth..any contrast is pleasing to the eye don't know if that is any use or not.but thought i would toss it in.
Ok Zoom, here are your banners...their in the attachment. Tell me which one you like better, and then tell me again what you want the text to be because I forgot Sry.
