Alright, I whipped up a CTF theme to help remedy the lack of multiplayer themes.

Main Page
Forum Header

Umm i really like the forum header but the group theme...
well once the text goes on (news, annoucments) you/we will only be able to see the top of the flag. Basically too much of the picture is lost behind the faded area. I really like that pic, as i'm sure many many other ppl in the community did. If you can figure out how to have at least 75% of it in the visible area... It'll be Sweet ;)

My intention was that the flag would be the most visible, and then you'd be able to see its support but a little. I'll send it on in. Thanks!

Alrighty.. I sort of half-assed a Snowbound theme.

Here it is

Critique it?
Should I even bother tweaking it, or is it just a lost cause?

I actually like this a lot. Maybe create a grey divider between the boxes though.

Wait - between which boxes? :P
Also, thanks. Wasn't expecting that. Haha.

Main pic, motto, news, and announcements. In short, the content boxes.

Yeah. Just to give it a sense of definition. Now go work on a banner (forum header) and you'll have a theme!

I really like the Snowbound theme, but the sidebar seems a bit choppy.

What about mine? Is mine ok? Please say mine is ok!

Really though, I never figured this out. How do you get something to outline, like the turret in the sidebar?I've been wanting to do that.

Is this only for group themes? or can we send pictures for avatars and personal profile headers?

I really like it. Especially the sidebar. All I suggest is to make the content boxes just a bit darker for better visibility for when there's text there.

You mean like a silhouette? In Photoshop you can go to blending options and do a color overlay.

The Whooozy: I like your snowbound theme, it looks good. But the sidebar needs to be blurred, its far too choppy. With a little bit of more additions it could turn out to be a great theme.

I've also been working on a little something again. This time it is a Believe theme. So far the sidebar is almost done, but the header needs alot of work. Tell me what you think. Full Preview (Sized Down)

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.

Oh, I know the artist of that picture. He's awesome.

It IS as bad as you think and they ARE out to get you.

If i'm going to have a swarm of flood, should/do I put in the Juggernaut and the Tank forms?

  • 03.07.2008 6:48 AM PDT

Just a test, theres some stuff not quite right, like the bar colors and I think I need to change the cheiftain's colors a bit. This is my first time ever doing anything like this, so be nice: http://www.flickr.com/photos/22681839@N05/2317574576/sizes/l/
Also I need to get the forum header...what will it be...

The header needs to be longer in height. If you're going to do the "Believe" ad, it should looks as close as possible I think. I don't remember MC being that big in the ad. Also, do you plan on doing something more with it? Right now it just seems like a regular picture. The right sidebar is nice though.

You can if you want. I did.

Do something more for the right sidebar. Colors should be changed as you said. Forum header could be the brute's eyes.

Much better.

OK, thanks, I appreciate the criticism. Yeah, it was just a preview, I'll rework some stuff and try again.

EDIT:http://www.flickr.com/photos/22681839@N05/2316882131/sizes/l/
Ignore the bits of blue at the right of the header. Slight changes on color and size.

And sort of using Duardo's idea:http://www.flickr.com/photos/22681839@N05/2316889735/

K1RK H4MM3T: Forum header and main header look pretty good, although the sidebar is going to need something to fill that blank space...

I've put the believe theme on hold for now and have come up with a new theme. It's the Bungie Fire theme. Here is the first version, I'm a little unhappy with the way the sidebar turned out...

Maybe without the text, or a different text style.. imo, it just doesn't fit.

That's such an awesome theme though. Sweet stuff.
