👋 Hello @RizwanMunawar, thank you for submitting an ultralytics/assets 🚀 PR! This is an automated response to help keep things moving—an Ultralytics engineer will also assist you shortly. To ensure a seamless integration of your work, please review the following checklist:

• ✅ Define a Purpose: Clearly explain the purpose of your fix or feature in your PR description, and link to any relevant issues. Ensure your commit messages are clear, concise, and adhere to the project's conventions. Also, please confirm the PR title matches the change (the description mentions a YOLOv8 banner, while the title references "YV25").
• ✅ Synchronize with Source: Confirm your PR is synchronized with the ultralytics/assets main branch. If it's behind, update it by clicking the 'Update branch' button or by running git pull and git merge main locally.
• ✅ Ensure CI Checks Pass: Verify all Ultralytics Continuous Integration (CI) checks are passing. If any checks fail, please address the issues.
• ✅ Update Documentation: Update the relevant documentation for any new or modified features.
• ✅ Add Tests: If applicable, include or update tests to cover your changes, and confirm that all tests are passing.
• ✅ Sign the CLA: Please ensure you have signed our Contributor License Agreement if this is your first Ultralytics PR by writing "I have read the CLA Document and I sign the CLA" in a new message.
• ✅ Minimize Changes: Limit your changes to the minimum necessary for your bug fix or feature addition. "It is not daily increase but daily decrease, hack away the unessential. The closer to the source, the less wastage there is." — Bruce Lee
• 🖼️ Asset Consistency: Confirm the updated file path yolov8/banner-yolov8.png is correct and used consistently across docs/READMEs/Ultralytics HUB references. If the filename changed previously, note any redirects or updates needed.
• 📦 Optimization & Size: Please confirm the image is optimized (reasonable resolution and file size) to minimize load times across docs and Ultralytics HUB previews.
• 🔁 Cache Considerations: If this replaces an existing asset used in docs or notebooks, note if a cache-busting step is required (e.g., updating embed references) so we can coordinate downstream refreshes.

For more guidance, please refer to our Contributing Guide. Don’t hesitate to leave a comment if you have any questions. Thank you for contributing to Ultralytics! 🎨🚀
