Summoner's Rift Banners

Several new "banner" files have been added for display on Summoner's Rift 

At the moment, only a set of  owl banners are visible at the top of the red side base.

There are banners for both the Owl and Stag themes of SR's bases:

There are also two banners eSports - provocatively named "SWAG" and "YOLO".
