> A theme component for Discourse to create a full-width banner - discourse/discourse-full-width-banner

This is the plugin that currently creates the homepage splash image. I cut out 80% of the content to just show the title and picture and changed the colors to match the default theme of the forum. The default plugin will look very different.
