Am I the only one who saw it in person? Didn't look to bad to me once I saw it.

Exactly. The mosaic thing is kinda passé design-wise now anyway. You saw it a lot more in 2002 (computers made it easy) than you see it now.

Under Armour wouldn't allow it - she's wearing Nikes.


And it took me about 5 minutes longer than normal to notice that too.

I did not see the Nike Shoes...

More Info:
The two banners depicting images of Tiger, Auburn's live eagle mascot, and the live oaks at Toomer's Corner, were shaded in the incorrect color (gray), an Auburn official told AL.com. The left banner, with Tiger, was also too small for the large opening on the back side of the video board.

The entire project will be re-evaluated, and the plan is for new banners to be installed by mid-season. Auburn has not divulged the financial details of the project, but it certainly wasn't cheap.

The original rendering was a mosaic with photos of Auburn staff and student-athletes comprising the larger pictures of the eagle and Toomer's Corner. The individual images inside the mosaic, however, were only visible when seen up close.

Was in AU yesterday and saw they took that shite down. Why not just run the grey and white all the way across?
