Title: Banners
Post by: Metho on August 03, 2003, 03:35:49 AM
Some of you more graphically inclined folk should make some smaller SMF banners so us non-graphics people can put them on our pages. Whoever did the box art/top logo, very, very nice looking. :D

I've always liked the Lewis Media banner... well, always.. I didn't see it for the first time all to long ago.  Still.

The background on those is too busy Joseph, I can't read anything but simple machines, and even that is hard.
(maybe it has something to do with 1280 on 1024)

Post by: charlottezweb on August 04, 2003, 06:48:15 PM
It's the white text over the white bkgrnd on the left side that is a little "busy" and hard to read IMO

Actually, I'd recommend making the background picture a little transparent (70-80% in Photoshop) and then put a 1 px black stroke around all the white stuff

Joseph, can I get an SMF image that's between 120x50 to 120x60 (smaller number is height) so that I can plug it up on my site?  Also need one for YSE, as well.

Post by: Tomer on December 03, 2003, 03:17:21 PM
I can make a flash one, but if you guys told me what to put it would be easier.

No flash for me.  Flash is evil.
