Homepage banner: Small notice format for WCUS 2024

[thetinyl]

Marketing would like to add a notice banner on the homepage to help promote WordCamp US 2024. The design can be identical to the one used for WordCamp Europe 2024 (see #445 and #446).

Dates

• Go live: September 4
• Removed/replaced: September 18

Design

As mentioned above, it can be the same notice banner style that was used for WCEU 2024:

We didn't really need a design for this, but I had the mockup handy:

Thanks @sfougnier! Yep, that looks about right.

@bmcsherry, any notes here or does this look alright to you?

@ryelle I tried to use one of the patterns that @jasmussen pointed to for the notice banner, but can only seem to find a synced pattern which I can't edit, unfortunately. I can try to recreate the banner in an ugly fashion, but if there's a way to pull the previous one and just edit the text... it'd probably save less time.

@thetinyl That looks great to me. Thank you.

Confirming that the post this banner will link to has been published: https://wordpress.org/news/2024/09/wordcamp-us-2024-oregon-a-see-you-there/

Note the URL change—I've updated the details above to reflect this.

@jasmussen FYI. I don't have the right Editor access to port over the small notice banner design you already put together.

I went a head and made the update, and the PR is ready, here: #497 (comment), I pinged both of you there, Lauren/Kelly.

It'd be nice if we could give you the right edit access privileges, Lauren!
