I don't suppose you could make it so the title is part of the Background, rather than superimposed on it? That is to say have it interwoven (err intersculpted) into the background.
Or alternatively not have such a dynamic background, and have something more static or plain. Like the image I posted earlier.

-Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's First Law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth.
And in regards to the quest icons I like the icon for;
Specter - a "shadowy" figure locked in a cage only looking on.
Faithful - The hammer, a weapon synominous with faith in medieval fantasy
Hierophant - The book of untold knowledge, something a priest usually emerses himself in.
High Council Member - With the actually quest icon for them in the game.
Que-Hagan - THe soulstone of Mephisto, since it was into the Que-Hagan, that his soulstone was placed.
Nephalem - The angel, a posistion someone might hope to one day ascend to.
Not sure the summoner is the best fit for the Ancient rank.
Thats what I love about them too. And I thought the Summoner's image looked cool for an Ancient because the face looks kind of old and powerful. Still, is there an image you propose to replace it? The actual quest icon for the Ancients quest doesn't really suit it, oddly enough. Its a skull. Taken out of its context it seems evil, not really ancient-y.
I'll try and come up with a rank/title-bar to suit the quest icons now.
And Murderface, I don't really like the red, sorry. Perhaps black is a better colour? One that would go with everyone's avatar.
Edit: Oh yeah, and I really like the birds with the quest icons too. I know they don't necessarily suit the Zakarum, but they are cool, and there are three of them, so it suits the 'set of three' thing.
Still, is there an image you propose to replace it?
-The Fallen Angel (Izual)?
-The Rescue on Mount Arreat? Being that upon the summit of Mount Arreat there is 3 Ancients. ALso Mountains are generally very old if not ancient, they have been around for generations.
Kinda wish there was more quests in the game, thus more icons. 27 is not enough.
I also like the Arcane Sanctuary, Khalim's Will, The Horadric Staff, Tainted Sun, icons

I was thinking that, but I thought it was a bit too controversial (inverted pentagraml).

I also considered this, but I think a cool-looking face is better than a mountain lol. Then again, if one doesn't think the face looks cool, then one might prefer the mountain.
Arcane Sanctuary
Khalim's Will
The Horadric Staff
Tainted Sun
I like these too, but they just seemed a bit too generic. I dunno, I really like the face lol. We may have to have a vote on this. Especially since its one of the more important ranks.
Like I said, we are limite to 27 for quest icons. there is 140 skill icons. But I prefer the darker, more stone like look of the quest icons.
There is little else to go with, the face may have to do.

I like that one. Can you blow it up a little? writing is kinda small.

I originally had it bigger, but I thought it wouldn't fit in the side column. Is there a specific maximum limit? Or will the column just automatically make itself bigger?
Also, should we have 'the' or not? If we do, then "The High Council Member" will be harder to fit. Though, if I make it bigger, it shouldn't be too bad.

Could I see those ranks in the exocet font (the "Diablo" font) please, for comparison. And also a coloured version. Better make that a coloured version of both, so as to draw a wider comparison.
I wonder how cool (or horrible as the case may be) if you were to place the Angel and demon (see top left image in signature) on either side of the user rank. The smaller it is, the less clear the angel and demon will appear, so it would need to be kinda big.

What do you think about the letter spacing? (see the two versions of Cantor)
Should I try and spread the word as wide as the bar, or just have double spacing or single spacing?
Single spaced, and no 'the' or High Council Member won't fit or will it?
Is it just me or is there a pattern here, atrumentis throws up an idea and I comment he changes it he puts up the new image, i comment and repeat. Him, me Him, me.
I know we have more than one artist here, and I know I am not the only one who has ideas about the ranks, I remember a bunch of you guys offering an oppinion earlier in the month.

granite background with inverse foth.
I may experience trouble fitting "High Council Member" in there though.
Fuck you, I'm a dragon.

Anyway, I came up with a rank border thing to suite the quest icons:
Thats the widest it would have to be, because High Council Member is the longest of the rank titles.

<- Is this one better? (second smallest)
Edit: More ranks
DONE!!!
