New Banner

[Fate Flyer]

Out with the old...


In with the new...



What do you think? I was spending all morning reading Photoshop text tutorials to make our banner all that more professionally-done (hopefully).

[Loki]

Badass! Love what you did with the text.

[Fate Flyer]

Thanks, Loki! I'm happy that you like it.

[Squall Reyes]

This banner is Deadpool approved.



I know he may not look it but he's happy....really.

[Eternity]

I like the new one.

Eerie + awesome = awesomex2

[Shades Of Gray]

That's most excellent, Fate!

[Igraine]

*thumbs up* It looks beautiful, Fate.

[Zephiris]

The mist seems to be thicker in the second, probably thanks to it's brightness, and the new fonts definitely seem to make it more spooky. Loved it!

[Fate Flyer]

Thanks, guys!!

[Kaito]

I can't see it. o.O

[Fate Flyer]

You can't? It's showing up for me okay. Anyone else having issues?

[Spectre]

/loves it.

I noticed it right off. I like

[Fate Flyer]

Oh, good! Glad you like it, Spectre, and that it's working for you.

Not sure what's up with the image for you, Kaito.

[Kaito]

it's neither here in the thread nor at the top...

I wondered where it had gone off to...

will try it without adblock, lets see...

[Kaito]

Ah, yes. Adblock keeps it from loading.

Now if only you could tell me why? o.O

[Fate Flyer]

Katio -- Somehow, you ended up blocking my personal Photobucket. Any pictures I upload there won't show for you, unless you unblock it in your settings.

[Sighlent]

B-E-A-U-TIFUL!!!!

^_^

[Aesalon]

I thought the old one was pretty good...and I think the new one is a step up.

[Guest]

Ah, yes. Adblock keeps it from loading.

Now if only you could tell me why? o.O

Katio -- Somehow, you ended up blocking my personal Photobucket. Any pictures I upload there won't show for you, unless you unblock it in your settings.

I'm assuming that's what happened. That image must be blocked for some reason. Try going to Tools>Adblock Plus Preferences and find i111.photobucket or something along those lines and remove it.

If it isn't that, then try Tools>Options>Content. Next to "Load Images Automatically" click the Exceptions button. Find in that list i111.photobucket.com and remove it.

I really enjoy this new banner. I noticed it as soon as I loaded FoG for the first time today. It looks creepier, and the static look makes it feel that much more related to the bigger FoG role play. Oh! I also like how the text looks like it's turning into the smoke. It's awesome.

My one complaint is that the text hardly looks like an FOG at all. I can't help thinking that if I didn't already know it said FOG I wouldn't realize what it is right away. Maybe if the prongs from the F stuck out a tiny bit more, and the O was a bit more closed? I don't know. You don't have to go with that. It's just an observation.

[Fate Flyer]

Glad you like the effects, Kathryn.

I didn't notice, but you're kind of right about the "O" in FOG. I suppose it probably would have been better if it were more closed. The effects kind of deteriorated the word.

[Spectre]

it could say 'LEG' or 'LOG' or 'FOO' 'or 'FEG', or plenty of other things.

Haha. I can still tell what it is, honestly. Where yes, it does look dissipated and indeed, 'FOGgy'... I think the effect suits the theme and site quite nicely. I'm not arguing with Kathryn or anything, i'm just saying that i like that it's that way.

[Fate Flyer]

I like 'FOO.'

Well, at least it does fit the theme, as it would mean redoing the entire thing if I wanted to fix it.

[Spectre]

:bounce:

/Still lubs it

n_n

[Fate Flyer]

[Kaito]

Yep, Whitelisted it.

Just wanted to let you know that in one standard adblock list I'm using, the filename "newbanner" is blacklisted. it thinks it's an ad...

[Fate Flyer]

Well, I was able to fix it slightly, so hopefully it's a bit more legible.

[Kathryn Lacey]

That is better. Even the tiny change with the g worked great. Did you fix the F a bit, too, because it looks a bit more F-like. The O is better, too. Good job!

[Fate Flyer]

Yeah, I kind of worked on all 3 a bit. :] Thanks, Kathryn! (I had the urge to call you "K," but restrained myself. )

[Kathryn Lacey]

I appreciate that. ^^_^^
