Ideas for New Board Logo Banner, Trekiverse Style

I had some ideas for creating a new board logo to reflect its new look and theme.

The following is my idea.



I could modify this image to include "Star Trek Chat Forum" as a subtitle.

I tried screen capturing the TOS Enterprise main view screen from my DVD but I had problems linking the image file to the web.

What do you think?

The station is a great idea! Although don't you think it needs to be bigger?

For the love of god someone change this skin.

I think MT is awol or something because he hasnt posted again in a while

I hope he's not had another family emergency.

No, not really. Just a bit of a "vacation." If anyone can suggest a skin, I'd put it up ASAP. I'm terribly at color schemes...

I'll do one for you if you want. With that skin designer.

Thinking about it now.... if you made me an admin I could fix it all up for you. Longevity based on your judgement of course.

Isn't it a little soon to be adding new admins? Perhaps there could be another way?

NO slight against you at all, Seth, because you might be good at the job...I guess I'm still upset and paranoid over what happened after the admins fought recently.

I agree with Nat, i wouldn't be adding a new admin again anytime soon after the last lot either (no offense intended Seth) not worth the risks when things are getting back on track again.

I wouldn't worry. not even my friends trust me with their sites

Alright, well try this. It's just temporary but it looks a little better than what we have now in my opinion.

Remember you have to copy everything for it to work, then edit as you please. Another point I'll get to work on some icons.

It's pretty yellow, lol.

How do you like?

To be honest, I don't like it. I recommend we should stay with the UFP primary colors - blue, grey, white and black.

I should be able to download the UFP logo shortly and create a new banner using all the ships from all the series.

Stay tune.

Yeah, the yellow-orange is a bit blinding.

UFP colors are also dull purles, golds, and blues. I wiped this one off the site, but it's alot better than th blue you guys had working here before.



Trouble is I can't contomise this with acess to admin Cp, so if you guys want to change you have to do it yourself.

You do have to be member to view this stuff though.

Alright... options(ie other peoples work).

This one is pretty much black but done nicely. Check the preview

This one is lighter, but still a little orange to it.

I now have my own, working design on my local server. We'll give it a whirl when I get back in a few days.

The current one is to keep people from blinding themselves.

Guesss i don't need these shades then huh?

^ ROFL!!

Here is a rough draft of what I had in mind for a new board banner:



Image is created with PSP. I can easily add "Star Trek Chat Forum" and a frame to its borders.

BTW I like this choice of a skin color theme. It's much better than the orange/black scheme.

Here are two rough drafts I had been tinkering with.

1 -

2-

What do you think?

Is the final version going to be stretched that far? The image loses a lot of quality that way.

BTW, the current colors certainly are pleasant on the eyes.

Yep the new colours look way better then the orange it was a bit strange and hard to read in places hehe
