Create countdown banners for Intrepid:
Quick notes: [Gerry] Dates for completion - we make the banners available from beta so 30 days prior to release on the October 1st.
Guidance - while there is no issue with making a number of these available, it is less desirable to use the code name for Ubuntu 8.10. Ubuntu is for everyone, for noobs especially and Intrepid Ibex is 'insider-speak' great for our internal reference, a great tradition but exclusionary to new arrivals.
Other than that - go for it - the more creative the better.
Historical
8.04 countdown for syndication - 
note that it is too big for most sites - should have been a standard banner size like 180x150 (standard sizes can be found here)
8.04 countdown for ubuntu.com - 
designed to mate against the masthead banner on the homepage
7.10 countdown for syndication - 
7.10 countdown for ubuntu.com - 
Javascript to display them is quite simple and can be seen here - http://www.ubuntu.com/files/countdown/display.js (it gets modified at release time in order to change the image from "almost ready" to "its here" when the release team gives the ok.
