Actually forum-specific announcements can be good.

EDIT: blink is sensored
I used to make forum-specific announcements in Linkshell but now it is gone.

In large bold letters on eoff forums home write: READ THE MOTHERF***ING ANNOUNCEMENTS BEFORE POSTING OR YOU WILL BE HUNG, DRAWN, AND QUARTERED (with extreme predjudice)
there was a picture here
Blinking, flashy, multi-colored stuff looks gawdy. ( I feel sophisticated saying that)
I don't think the problem is people not reading the announcements so much as not caring what they say. If it is viewing them, I like Murder's suggestion with it changing like the new posts in thread do.. Maybe we could put a chocobo up there like the forums index page or a new image that changes after being viewed?

I don't think the database currently keeps track of who's read which announcements in which forums and when to be able to do that
No. Just make so that when a new announcement is posted it has a flashing background for like...48 hours or something. Then there really shouldn't be any DB problems.
yea, just epilepsy problems
Who wants to make the 172800 second long animation?!
That animation would only work if you had the page loaded for that long of a period of time. If you reload the animation would start over. It would need to be like an if when the page loads up and references the date posted with the current date to see how long it has been then decide what background to use. Normal or flash
