Title: New Banner
LoobiLou - May 2, 2004 07:20 PM (GMT)
I’ve changed the banner at the top to something that looks a little more professional, if you’d prefer the old one back then just say so and I’ll put it back up if it’s a majority vote.

Glad you all like it :rambo:

The other banner was great too, but this one just oozes style.
You truly are a guru Eric ;)

good work i think you wouldn't like the idea of spending another 7 hours on another banner if we didn't like the one you did. :lol: :lol:

Excellent banner, Eric! Good selection of pictures too :thumbsup:

I love the new banner. Give yourself a pat on the back!!!!!
LoobiLou - May 4, 2004 11:30 AM (GMT)
Thanks all :rolleyes:
Here's what it original was going to look like
Link It would have taken hours to get rid of all the lines that joined the fades, so I just turned it blue instead :P ...I love photoshop :rambo:
willowroolz - May 4, 2004 12:08 PM (GMT)
Like them both - but the blue is cool.

Those lines that shouldn’t be there have been pissing me of for a while now <_<
So started from scratch and made this.

It has most of the same pics except there are no stoopid lines. I’ve also used a faded grid and made a torn effect around it.
Should we stick with the one we have or use this new one? :huh:
Edit: without torn effect.

I like this new version (without the border effect).
Not sure about the grid lines though, it makes it look unfinished somehow :unsure:
Laura - September 19, 2004 07:15 PM (GMT)
Very pretty :thumbsup: . I prefer it without the torn-effect though.
Kudz - September 19, 2004 07:32 PM (GMT)
Love it, but prefer the one without the torn effect.
LoobiLou - September 19, 2004 08:40 PM (GMT)
It's up now, if you think the old one looks better then we'll have that one back up :)

The problem I have with the banner is that while it celebrates Cult TV, it seems oddly biased towards only a few series, all of which are now finished/cancelled!
In a perfect world (and I don't know if Invision will permit this) is to have banners done for each series (an Angel one, a Stargate one, a B5 one and so on) and then have it so a random banner comes up each time the page is refreshed (check the banner in the top left hand corner of
Gateworld for an example).

They've got it as a .jpg but I've only seen that done with a png file :unsure: I like that idea a lot though, I'll look into it ;)

I can't see the banner at all now :unsure: :(

I'm trying a new code out now so things might look strange for tonight ;)
Michelle - September 19, 2004 10:32 PM (GMT)
Okay, what's happened to the nice pic of Angel in that banner? Is he now supposed to be the blurry thing 2nd from left? :angry: ;)
Apart from that, I like the new version, though perhaps with no grid lines and no torn effects...and the "TV" wording kinda gets lost in Cordy's hair. But apart from that... ;) :lol:
LoobiLou - September 19, 2004 10:33 PM (GMT)
w00t! It works! :thumbsup: ...If you refresh the page it should change from the new banner to the old banner :)
I'll get started on some more ;)
LoobiLou - September 19, 2004 10:55 PM (GMT)
Is it working for every one else? :unsure:
It doesn’t change after every refresh due to there only being two images with a 50/50% chance of each showing up . I’m also having a bit of a problem with the images displaying in FireFox.
By the end of the week there should be a banner each for a few shows on the list ;)
LoobiLou - September 20, 2004 12:05 AM (GMT)
Right, I've used a new code and made some alterations, there should be no problems viewing the banners with firefox, It should work perfectly now :)
With there being only two pics there’s that 50% chance of either showing, so once we get a few banners up (for different shows ;) ) then it will change with every refresh :)
I’m of for the night now :sleeping:
LoobiLou - September 20, 2004 09:04 AM (GMT)
How's this for an SG1 banner, there isn't any spoilery characters is there? I really don't know my StarGate :ph43r:

Persephone - September 20, 2004 09:17 AM (GMT)
Looks great Rob, as far as I'm aware, nothing spoilery ;)
LoobiLou - September 20, 2004 09:44 AM (GMT)
The B5 banner – the wording at the bottom doesn’t show up very well, but that doesn’t really matter as long as it does on the majority of them ;) I’m also gonna use a different shade of colour for each banner and put them all up at the same time once they’re all finished :)

The B5 one is nice but is a tad spoilery both cast a costume wise :ph43r:

They're all to come ;)
I'm just making the images we have a bit brighter so that the text shows :)
melian - September 20, 2004 03:21 PM (GMT)
These are all fantastic Rob!!
What a nice surprise to come back to :D
Especially the Firefly one.
willowroolz - September 20, 2004 03:51 PM (GMT)
They work really well, Rob. I particularly like the Firefly one, too :thumbsup:
And don't forget Star Trek! ;)

The B5 one has been modded on spoilerage grounds ;)
Great banners though Rob :thumbsup:
