And now? Less or more cluttered with the hexagon grid?

Make the hexagon grid smaller

Sweet, my Hunter theme made it in. Although the background doesn't match the sidebar though. Oh well, at least I got one published...

Incomming. Re-check it.

Oh and Sniper's Hunter theme was pretty cool.

I have yet to look through the entire topic, so I don't know if anyone has made a forerunner theme yet, but here is mine.

Plagiarismo!Posted by: SK CRISIS on page 6
Finally finished my first theme. Here's 'Default 2K8'

If you're wondering, I vectored the bolt-wielding arm from the Bungie Community forum banner you see at the top of the page. Let me know what you think.
I'll forgive you if you tell me what you think of mine. Of course I'm kidding about the plagiarism thing.

Your hexagon grid is too sharp, other than that I like it. The header is awesome, took me a few seconds to see that that is in fact Cortana.

Did another change on the medals one, recheck this link
still kept the font red but changed the sidebar and still in the process of finding a complete medal chart that doesn't have the numbers next to the medals
The B.NET text on mine will be removed and more medals will engulf the header ... I think...

Heh, great minds think alike and fools never differ... ;D

My grid is sharp as a matter of personal æsthetics - thin cyan lines on a black background just work for me, and I suppose that shows a lot. Alas most don't seem to take to it. I love the golden lightning and the revolutionary hand in your one - did you create vector versions of the originals yourself, or was it paintshopped from the one-colour version?

We shall be fools with great minds then.

I did, I took a screenshot of the Bungie Community header and vectored that one, also used the header sidebar in the default theme for reference. The cog behind it was in the original design, but I couldn't figure out how to remake it perfectly without making the time put into it worth it. I don't think I need it that badly anyway.

I can relate with you on making a decision regarding aesthetics that others might not like. The grunge brushes I used on the main header are beginning to make me think it's 'too fancy' to be included in the newly updated selection of themes. I might remake the theme without it.

Hmm... Well I fiddled with the contrast to highlight the grittiness of the image; you should go for something film noir like.

By noir, I mean the specific style exemplified by a scan from an old comic I'm about to link. The comic is from the Red Dwarf [a British sci-fi comedy TV programme] magazine:

Any suggestions on these themes?

New Flood for life <3

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.

What do you guys think of this? First shot at it, so I might make some changes here and there.

Though admitidly these came off of my Halo 3 Zune, I am most proud of how this one looks.

Trying something once will increace your chances of success, because you tried it. Try someting twice, and your chances increase yet again - seeing as you've done it. Try something a few thousand times, and your chances of success is exponentially increased; this increase would likely provide success every time

My only problem, it's not dark enough. I would suggest either lightening the site itself, or at least darkening the images.

Want a few more opinions before I send it in. Do we need to do the forum banner too before emailing Stosh?

Thanks Rokit; Don't worry, for some reason my pictures change when I upload them onto photo-bucket. It's actually a fair ammount darker, and Yellow font works supprisingly well with it even when it's light.
