I've been messing around with a possibility named "Old School" which is meant to emulate past Bungie website designs, but I'd really like some comments on it. This is pretty much a "total conversion" theme since I'd be redoing practically the entire color scheme. If nobody's interested in it, I would gladly drop it, but I'd like some honest feedback.

I know it doesn't look that great, but neither did Bungie.net a long time ago. If you think this would suck as a theme, please let me know! This theme would take a lot of work because I'd have to override most of the color values in the site CSS files, so I don't want to do it if nobody likes it.

Old School theme preview


Maybe work on that a little more..

Lol.

Don't worry about that. I happen to be working on one, but i still need to upload some pix to B.net and photoshop those together.

We really should have a mix of Capture the flag and oddball...


PS. Did you get my psd file?

Will do, I hope I can make it come out looking decent.

And I'm working on a multiplayer CTF theme as well.

Maybe later. I'm going to work on my Bungie theme for the moment; a general one, with everything...

  • 02.27.2008 2:13 PM PDT

I hope you don't mind if I use unreasonable amounts of Elite-ness. I know many a' Halo 3 players that would like it.

We’re looking back laughing because they called us crazy, but we took that chance on that feeling, living for the moment, we were spinning in. Maybe we were a lot of things, but we weren't crazy.

Got some Multi-player ones going, but here is a theme I did real quick. It's still a WIP, seeing as I want to change the sidebar to something different possibly. I also might add some effects of some sort with a few brushes.

I like it Halo2Girl, but the sidebar needs something a bit more, maybe the spartan emblem or something? Anyways, I've got a Hayabusa theme going, sort of. If you want to see the first header design click Here. Text will be in the top right of the header, what do you think?

Including the source negates the suckiness of the armor, but will it pass copyright?

Hey Sniper or Wolfie (or anyone really),

Mind telling me what dimensions the picture has to be to go under the 'News' sections? Thanks.

It's not finished, don't have a forum header yet either. I Don't really know what to do with the right sidebar. Thoughts?

I don't believe you need seperate images for that. I think one main group header will do. Either that is used as a whole, or stosh will cut it up till it fits. me thinks.

EDIT: I was thinking about maybe using a blueish heat map for the right sidebar. What do you guys think of that?

Thanks, Jaf.
And ya, Jaf, about your group pic... it's terrible, absolutley horride photoshoping.




Actually think I was being serrious? That is an awesome theme Jaf! My only question is when we can get our hands on it.


Edit#2: Can you give us a sample of what a blue-ish heat-map would look like?

Wow JAF, thats pretty sweet. I love the main picture. I think the heat mat could be a good idea depending on how it is done.

When I looked at it again, I noticed one somewhat minor thing I would look into; The Elite's head set against the Recon Spartan, is really not as vissible as I think would be best. I know you're going for the whole blend in since you have the blue armor and all, but I think it may blend a little too much.

It's a really small thing I noticed. Even if you didn't change it, I would still think it's one of the better themes yet.

I trust you didn't mean to. But that link Duardo just virused my computer. I recommend not clicking it.
