See
http://code.google.com/p/bwapi/ for information on BWAPI.
This page is read by University professors and students from around the world looking into developing AI in a commercial Real Time Strategy environment/sandbox.
Nothing too fancy please. Looking for a banner for the front page and an icon for the google code logo. The banner will probably also be used by various news groups that cover or take interest in BWAPI as well.
I'll also be using it for awareness posts once AIIDE 2011 is officially announced.
Heres something I whipped up for you. Not sure if its what you had in mind, but there is much to go on by your post.

Pretty cool, I like it.
A bit large but I can work with it.
Thanks.
EDIT:
(5:36:02 PM) lowerlogic: maybe make the text a bit brighter
(5:50:30 PM) lowerlogic: i don't know anything about designing banners, though maybe replace the binary with something more bwapi-ish, like a line or two of bwapi c++ code, like
(5:50:35 PM) lowerlogic: for each(Unit* marine in army)
(5:50:37 PM) lowerlogic: marine->attackUnit(mutalisk);
(5:51:06 PM) lowerlogic: with the same sort of fade-ness that the 01010110 stream has
Screenshot of some fake sample code:
Also could you keep it around or below ~600px wide? Not sure about height, as I don't know much about banners either.

lol, I was thinking of using some code from the project, but I didnt have time when I was making the original. Usually make banners that are between 850-1000px wide from 150-300px high, but I can make it 600x150 if it works better for you. I'll have a new version up later tonight.
None.
Heres the new version. Smaller, and has the changes.

I order you to forgive yourself!
Just so that we can see them from here.
Kern the W closer to the B... It's "BW API", not "B WAPI".

I'm kinda wondering what that code above the part I gave is.
I think it would be better if there was more code that covers almost the entire brain.
Larger random snippet of (real) code from my bot:
EDIT:
Also I don't mind if you throw in your name(up to you), but make sure you specify that the
banner was done by you ("Banner by LosTZealoT" for example) and keep it extra small. Otherwise you'll get people asking for help with the API.
Also the logo/icon can be a maximum of 153 x 55 px. The banner just needs to fit on the (main wiki) page that appears first when you visit
http://bwapi.googlecode.com , I don't know what size Google Code attempts to scale that.

I just got some code off your wiki, I can make it more extensive.
Im not sure what you mean by Icon. Like a favicon?
None.
I changed the image to better fix the code.
None.

Looks good.
By icon I mean like the icon on the top left of the code page (the Starcraft Wraith icon is currently there) next to the giant letters "bwapi".
