What do you think of our new banner? Let us know! 8)
-
The forum doesnt fit on my browser anymore, I think you should remove the Simple Machines Forum Gif..
-
How do you do that?
-
Well it looks like you did already, but dude what did you do to the logo?! its bigger now! :frantic:
-
LOL, yeah I'm adjusting it. :D :rofl2:
-
Eh, the banner is nice, but (a) it's too big (dimensional), and (b) way too many compression artifacts; should've saved it as a PNG or GIF.
-
LO< you guys don't pick things up too easily do you? I JUST, JUST, JUST said that I was in the process of making adjustments to the size of the banner. as for compression artifacts, nothing I can help. I didn't specify a particular format, not realizing that people were going to be so damn critical.

My comments weren't meant to be critical. I was just pointing various things I noticed about the banner. It was not intended to be demeaning against your site or whoever created the banner.

5 times better than the last (no offense to the last logo :P ) I like it.

I like it. It's a bit big, though.

Well you explained your last post, but failed to give me a new opinion of the banner (which I was hoping for since I'm now finished adjusting it).
Stephen, Kyle, I'm gladyou guys like it. 8)
-
I like it. It definitely fits the website. It it a touch blurry (the "Bringing you the best of today's Weather Channel" tagline)...but that can be fixed later down the line.
I personally would have chose an IS header, but that's just my personal opinion.

The person who made the banner is making an IS one, but he gave me this XL one to hold me over until he can finish the IS one.
-
Cool banner but it looks a bit blurry.
-
Yes Thunder I know its blurry. First of all, I'm not blind. Second, its been said a dozen times already. Its blurry because of the format its in (jpeg).
-
I've updated the banner. It should look much better now. REMEMBER, you may have to clear your cache in order to see the change.

Much better image, Gary. :mustacheman:

I'm told that its in bmp format now as opposed to jpeg, so I guess that made the difference.
-
Nope, shes a JPG.. a nice clear JPG. :clap:
-
Nice Banner, little bit big, but still nice banner
-
It looks great on a 1027 X 768 and 900 X 600 screen.. Gary, about the SMF logo:
Can you download this image:
http://ksmi.homelinux.com/personal/snapshots/smflogo.gif
And put it on your server under this directory under the same name:
https://twctodayforums.com/forums/Themes/default/images/smflogo.gif
Right now its just showing up as an X, but with that image I posted it will just be a clear space :) no more X
-
Done. 8)
-
Hey Ernesto, is there any way you could make the banner without the TWC logo? The logo IS copyrighted, trademarked, etc. so I don't want any conflict of interest. I'm not willing to take any uneccessary risks.
-
The banner is much better Gary! Great job!
-
Gary, you may post the TWC logo in this matter. However you must keep the (SM - Symbol Mark) becide the logo to do so.
-
So what'll it be Gary? Do you want a TWC logo with the symbol mark, or without a TWC logo period?
Obviously, the IntelliSTAR banner will not have the logo...so there shouldn't be a problem there.
-
I would prefer one without the logo. I don't want to take any chances.
-
Either way, it looks really nice, Gary. It's a nice touch. :)
-
Option 1) Use a TWC logo, it has to have the SM becide it.
Option 2) Dont use a TWC logo at all.

I think I've made it clear already what I want to do. I'm sorry if you don't agree with it, but that's my decision and its final.
Thanks for your comments Paul! 8)
-
Gary,
I'm working on it right now.

No hurry. Get it done when you can. 8)

Kinda odd how you're concerned about copyright concerns with the TWC logo being on the new TWC Today logo, yet you weren't even concerned about it with the old logo, which had the TWC logo. :unsure:

Didn't say I didn't agree with it, just showing you some options.

Wow!!! now that is the perfect banner for twc-today :D

For what, the third time? You've been showing me my options since 7:30 this morning.
Glad you like it travisallen! 8)

Your banner looks crystal clear, Gary. :)

Yeah well it wasnt brought to my attention until the logo was mentioed.. The copyright stuff kinda just popped in to my head then.
-
And if your talking to me Stephen my answer is the same as Kyle's. It wasn't brought to my attention with the old banner, and now that it has been I realize that its a very valid point.
-
Alright, I finally got an IS version of the banner tonight, and it is now up. Please let me know what you think. Also, do you think we should stick with this banner or go back to the XL style banner?
-
THAT is nice. Very nice!
-
Pretty cool. I like it. B)
-
I think we should go back to the old banner, but that's just me.
But, this one is nice, too. :yes:
-
Very cool IS banner! Great job Gary! :yes:

Actaully, I didnt make it. ErnestoAlert made it. 8)
-
Great job ErnestoAlert!
-
Thanks. I'm not 100% happy with it. However, after compared to a few other failed attempts, this one looks perfect...hehe.
The XL V3 banner was much easier...which actually makes me wonder why the XL V3 is a simpler design than the XL V2, which as top bars quite similar to the IntelliSTAR.
-
Guys, I need your opinions. What do you like better on the SITE (not the forum). The banner that Matt made, which is up on the home page now, or the old one, which you can see on any other page? The reason I'm experimenting with the new banner is because if possible I want to make everything uniform, much like TWC Classics.
-
I like the older one (the one you got from a Proboards member). IMO, it matches better with the rest of the site's layout.
-
The buttons will be changing so don't take those into account.
Maybe someone here can make a banner that would look good on both the site and the forum? I really would like everything to be uniform. I just hate having two different banners.
-
Uniform in the Intellistar form of TWC Today? Just asking, because it would be great

Yeah, my thought exactly. I wanted to answer his question, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out exactly what it was he was asking! :thinking:
-
I think he meant if you could make the site look like the format of the IntelliStar. That's my guess.
-
That's actually what I'm attempting to do. I think the banner actually looks good with any of the three proposed designs that I've asked you guys to vote on.
-
Yeah! It would look nice if you did that! Do we need anyone to help with getting the banner or you can do that on your own?
-
I think I can do it on my own. :sunglasses:
-
yeah i think the site would look kickass if there were an intellistar background to it. Can you add a different background in the forum too?

If its possible its probably a real pain in the fanny, thus not something I want to tackle right now.
