Forum Logo

GrinnerGrinner Earthforce Officer
Hey Guys--

I only visit here every now and then, but that forum logo has been bugging me in the last couple of visits. You see, back when I set up this board, it was based wholely off the format of the earlier Sierra board. (I wouldn't stand for this, so before it went public I took a few hours to personalize it to standard UBB graphics. Yes, we did know about the cancellation before it was annouced.)

Anyway, I eventually got around to doing new buttons (which still serve well methinks), but that logo was something Wombat put together for me in like a few minutes, and I think there can be much cooler looking logo's in it's place.

Can any of you graphic fiends out there produce something for us?

    He's talking about that wide oblong in the top left of every page, the one with the jumpgate. Unfortunately, that logo won't fit in that box.

    Here's one I whipped up, but I can't think of what to put in the center of the image...can't find a good picture of a 'fury to put in there...

  • RubberEagleRubberEagle What's a rubber eagle used for, anyway?
    somebody could render a 'fury firin'
  • samuelksamuelk The Unstoppable Mr. 'K'
    Sorry, D'Ren... ItF is mainly a Starfury Sim, so I would say it would be best to stick with a Fury.

    Much better.

    But the color scheme doesn't match the current site.

    That was the reason I chose the colors I used...they're the exact same colors that are used on the FO front page and forums.


    I'd stick with the forum color scheme.

    Babylon 6--That's nice! Like that a lot...

    Greven--Wow, that's visible, but it's a wee bit too big to fit in the size.

    Anyone else coming up with stuff?
  • GrevenGreven Ranger
    I can make it smaller.... here are the darker smaller ones.

    Oh it hurts! Too many images on one page! My poor modem...

    Anyway... how about someone does something with fire? Wouldn't that be more fitting?

    Biggles - the one I did uses "firelike" colors and textures. Short of a clumsy, "flaming logo" I reckon thats enough.

  • I love it from Babylon 6 [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] "Into the Fire" has always reminded me of a Starfury sitting in the middle of a campfire, with flames all around it. That would be ... interesting! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    The one with the White Star gets my vote. Nice job babylon6.

    NICE! I like it
  • samuelksamuelk The Unstoppable Mr. 'K'
    This one is a little less compressed, and I added a little transparency to the fire so it overlaps the text a bit:

  • I like Greven's first one, it just looks cool, but some blue/white fire would make it even cooler in my opinion. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    Cherio.

    An irregularly shaped image with a black background would blend better with the page background. Either that or transparency.

    That sort of thing adds something to a page; more so than an obviously rectangular image.
