I'm screwing around with the main page

[Sir Psyko]

Hmmm, seems I made one twice and forgot calendar... I'll fix that later tonight.

I'll see what I can find for Non-Glowie images.

Is it wrong to want a page for Church Members with an avatar + short BS bio?

Like how a doctor's office or Lawyer has bio pages about their folk?

[Homeslice513]

Looks to be coming along quite nicely!

[Blackferne]

I linked in sunday school some resources for people who want to help out.

Totally. Just a long list of Avatars + a short paragraph about that person. Similar to if we all actually filled out a profile page. But only for Church Members and only funny. Its stupid I know, but at least its stupid without a purpose.



Reese, out.

I like that idea better when we actually have the game running, and can stage/luck into silly or over dramatic screenshots/poses for the picture.

[Sir Psyko]

Calendar image is on PhotoBucket now with flaming goodness.

[Blackferne]

Excellent. Uploaded and updated (you may have to hold down ctrl-f5 to get it to load the first time). No corresponding calendar page, I need to shop around for a free calendar app that I can install. If anyone finds one, or know one they like, let me know and I'll go investigate.

Oh and based on my talk with Furiel and Arrican last night I'll do a rough draft of that idea and make a page to compare to what we currently have.

[Blackferne]

K Furiel you said put the buttons on the side. And presumably have a banner on the top (obviously I'd have to get the banner back to a larger size like it is on the forums). And I'm guessing we'd shrink the buttons on the left. What do you want in the open background space?

[Furiel]

I don't have an image in mind currently...just something with some awesome, in-game action occuring is what I've always envisioned, but I have yet to come across such an image.

And yes, bigger banner and smaller buttons

[Blackferne]

on the altindex one I changed the background image. Feel free to look through the stuff I linked in sunday school for an image or images you prefer as a background. I'm still cataloging them, so a lot of the planet ones (like Alderaan on the main page) aren't linked yet, but will be soon.

[Sir Psyko]

I'll make a bigger header image in the next day or three. Or figure out where all the images I did before are on my hard drives...

[Kitoshi]

Looks good. I'm wondering though, if we shouldn't just have a solid background instead of a screen shot. It seems a little busy with the screen shot.

[Freyli]

wow, a few years later and look at what we have... its like we're high rollers!!!

Ok who's been busy in vegas? is this all just a comp that is going to be taken away just as we get used to it?

nice work joun, SirP

[Sir Psyko]

Had all the other images in another album, moved them to the Alvian Forums album... didn't make anything new yet, kind of hoping that one of those will work

If not I can modify one of them to work.

Pick a color and let me make a mock up.

[Kitoshi]

Taupe.

[Furiel]

Taupe.

You are dead to me.

What is a color not a color? When it's taupe.

I've shit more interesting colors then that. We want a page that is going to catch people eye, not make them want to put a hand in a blender just to see if they can still feel.

[Blackferne]

After some googling about taupe, behold Kit's Taupe index pages (both styles Left aligned and center aligned)

Keep in mind these are still rough sketches on what a front page could look like.

Oh my that center aligned Kit Taupe makes me feel so nostalgic for a brand new model home. Its just so comfortably numb. Like a doctor's office, or an elementary school (where I hear many of you troll for dates!). Ok that was too far. Kit's Taupe doesn't turn you all into molesters, just creepy hallway wall flowers.

I for one find Kit's Taupe to be moderately appealing to that middle or the road type.

If we are taking odd color suggestions, im going with Plum. If not, then keep the strange screenshot layered with buttons center aligned.

Reese, out

[Furiel]

I stand by my previous statements after having observed the results.

If we are going to do a solid background I think it should blend with the buttons and such, so doing something similar to the official forums with a dark blue background might work well.

[Kitoshi]

Okay, so maybe a solid color isn't the best idea. Maybe some smooth, sleek design.

I dunno, just trying to be constructive

If by constructive you mean killing puppies.

Taupe has to be the worst idea. Ever.

George W. had better ideas than that.

Here's an idea-stop slamming your head into the wall trying to trash the ipad you idiot.

[Blackferne]

Removed because I have made the front page the blog.
