What would it take to make this picture a reality?

You'll notice I've also created a 16x16 image for the Favicon (That little icon that shows up beside the website's URL in the address bar.)

The actual graphic work is negligible (Save a couple images that can be whipped up in a few seconds). All the changes can be made through the code for the board's theme. I just have no idea how to do that.

Is it that difficult? I'd really like to see CG be consistent with its logos and visual style.

I found this so important that I stiff armed some old grandma out of the way on these public computers


she wasn't doing anything important just being a bitch and trying to get her house back

but yes slyder this is what I literally gave up on after many tearful nights

the exact color layout theme all done nicely

when I get back this is going up first order of business

nicely done Slyder way to take the initiative

[TheSlyder]

That's just a mock-up. I didn't do shit.

Photoshop's "Color replace" function did it all for me.

[Finniespin]

Wait. Are you working on a theme

That looks nice!

I could easily take this and turn it into a reality. Vote?


EDIT: Also can you give me the high res edits of the files (mainly the important ones IE logo)
In other words same resolution as our currents.

[TheSlyder]

I'll be glad to toss any files you need your way. What resolution is the main title/banner at the top? Transparent or not? Give me the info you need, and I'll send it all to you.

I'll also send the favicon that I made (It's not in the .ico format, or whatever it is, but I'm assuming you can take care of that part.) Currently it's a blue CG logo with a white background, I can change the color of the G to grey if you want, but I think the white background should stay. Transparency usually tends to make the icon more difficult to recognize with the wrong background. (It's in the picture on my favorites bar if you want to see it.)

I manged to make a that logo in the fav ico from your pics and stuff But I'll take yours probably higher res. *Used the one with black background from the RDM rules and got in to 16 by 16 ico format*

Anyways Transparent is best for me.
350px × 110px for main logo or in that range.

I gusse I could do the rest with hue saturation levels.
But yeah I'd love to see the fav ico and the main banner. I'll make this into another CG Forum Theme and default it so if people want to they can still go back to the red style on their own.

FYI For any one intrested I have made a CG Inferno Beta Avaiable via the
Profile > Look And Layout > Current Theme

It's still in beta So i'll fix the glitches it currently has after Slyder responds.

[Boxman]

I think it's about time we change..

[Finniespin]

[Wholegrain]

I laughed

and we are making this default for anyone who comes on the forums

you can still choose the old theme but by default this will be our new theme

nicely done slyder

The logo at the top is blurry, probably because it's been squished horizontally.

[Finniespin]

Not really. It look very nice! Only you've saved the blue background bar in JPEG am I correct. Rather use PNG.

I dunno It was a quick build of Slyders sketch. Remember it's in Beta.

The blue font isn't quite right yet and yes I'm aware of the pixel issue with the blue bar but if you look close they existed in the old red one as well. I might just make my own bar And use that.

[TheSlyder]

Okay, I whipped up some of the image necessary.

Here are the on/off icons (I thought it would make more sense to have our logo instead of a flame icon, especially with a  blue theme going on.)



The main logo (Transparent .png)


The 16x16 icon: (Currently in .gif format because I don't know how to convert to .ico)


And lastly, I noticed the blue background image was low quality (And also a little bit off with its hue) so I remade it as well:


Let me know if you need anything else.
