The forums are back (and updated)

[Wyvern]

Cear still looks phallic...

[Starkwold]

This might need a replacement too



Not sure what would be Dasarian for that.

[Starkwold]

Hey, blame Mammu. He had the audacity to create a phallic looking peninsula.

[Starkwold]

Perhaps someone with more photoshop experience can help, I believe I've reached my ceiling of capability.

The thor style has a backsplash composed of two images.

This:



and this



I've gotten this far yet,



and



I do not know how to sufficiently dark the first image so it looks good, and I'm not terribly sure, when they come together, it will line or, up look good.

I adjusted the color for a better match.

[Starkwold]

Downloaded the style-demo, and matched up the images, and man, they look terrible. Mainly because I suck at this. Until I can figure out how to get the "fading backsplash" looking decent, this is all I can really cook up.

A screenshot:



edit: I like the colouring, Rob, and that's what we probably should use if we can't get the backgrounds lined up right (if we just stick with the simple header).

[Rob]

Try these...

[urgualamand]

I can see where you're heading, and it will give really great feel to the forums!

[Evelond Formos]

As cool as these look I really must say Dasaria just has a subBlack feel to it. I'm all for wowgold, provided the banner is replaced.

[Torquil Lamond]

More than one style can be added. All it takes is for:



To be replaced (with black fading on the left and right of the replacement image, same dimensions of 800x150), and if Wyv feels enterprising enough he can add it with the replacement image.

Myself, Thor is growing on me, but I'm really open for either one. I'm a little concerned about how my CFleet banners/graphics will look on that tan, but other than that I like it.

[Vahene]

Ok, hello kitty it is. I think Vahene will love that one.

*cries* What did I ever do to you! MEANIE!

Perhaps if you completely reversed the color scheme.. black anti-hello kitty?

PS - I really do like the one that Rob and Falcon are playing with. A bit brownish though.

[Greyshore]

ThorLargeX boardstyle is already available in your board preferences, for those who didn't know.

[Evelond Formos]

My current opinion on the Thor style is that it looks cool, but the Dasaria 2 needs to be moved to a place where it is more visible. Right now I can hardly see it.

Also, white text is hard to read too.

[Torquil Lamond]

I think those are going to be eliminated, and replaced with something flashier.

[The Explorer]

Can I just add that the Island on the right of Cear looks amazingly similar to England and even managed to chop off Whales

I wonder how many more PWC's it will take to get to the far left of that map Or is the aim not to push it that far?

Great work guys I am looking forward to seeing the all new Forums *passes out the Coffee and doughnuts to keep the forum designers awake*
