The Fallen Lords :: Bannerism

[TFL]Inert · Posted: Sun Feb 05, 2006 5:50 pm Post subject: Bannerism - belief in banners :P

Considering the free time I have today (Sunday, here), I made a banner. It's supposedly a SOASE banner (I plan to make a few more, Tank0 said he could rotate them, or something) but in reality, it has only one SOASE component in it. Half faded. *shrug* It's a new game so I didn't find much to gather from.

Cool, Inert. I really like the tfl banner you posted on the old forum. Tank should add them to website, they look great

Unfortunately those were too large because they are animations.

Can't really make a cool official banner, though, because I'm not a photoshop wizard.

no pressure

*rubs eyes* I totally did not know there was an official SOASE website. O_O;;

I'll probably get to redoing this one, to add in a bit more things, and move onto other game types.

wow that's pretty nice buddy. Is it supposed to be the top banner ?

Not sure about that purple thing though... is it supposed to receive the index/FAQ/search/...etc buttons ?
Maybe a third dark grey shade geometric diamond shaped/cropped corners style object in the top left corner sized between the big one and small light grey one allready presents instead ? Or instead of a uniform shade maybe some tekno-texture for that third object and leave enough space below on the central object to insert the forum's buttons ?

only my 2 cents

hmmm i'm a mod here so I can double post

there's something wrong about the TFL logo, me think you should get rid of the edges and make it uniform and try for some ''dropped shadow'' inner bevel like you used for the full clan's name.

the idea is to have 6 banners like the one above , rotating .

it would replace the "the fallen lords , up from the ..." thingie you find below every page and the top banner on the webpage

tbh i like the old logo better then the new one,if i didnt know the letters i wouldnt recognise it

Since I have made the old one within approximately 2 minutes and have spent 2 days for the new one I feel a bit disapointed...

As I allready figured out no one in the clan don't want my l33t logo but some sort of ugly font that any illiterate can read, I will just deal with it and stfu since I'm a minority

*cruel world*

...and will try to improve the old one

I wanted it to be extruded so that the letters can be impressed onto the surface. I would say that the bottom left portion, the lighter gray, looks a bit awkward, and the purple doesn't look quite right. Going to try to fix that.

edit: Eh... nevermind. Too much work. X_x

Heh, actually I wanted to keep the TFL un-embossed, because if I did it would be a uniform grey, and I want to keep the black/white outline (I worked real hard to keep that...).

well i took the artwork that was allready finished and made a temporary banner , the result is shown above if you are using a myff_tflclan style .

keep in mind this is still a beta version so constructive remarks are more then welcome .

hmm hmmm... interesting

I think you should probably invert the color on the "outside" of the transparency. Having it the same color as the "The Fallen Lords" looks weird.

[TFL]Tank0 · Guest Xfire : Games: born : Add Karma

modded the design , i coudn t do much with "hmmm hmm interesting" but i did change the colors of the frame and i buttonized it while i was at it .

integrated some flash prgramming in a morf to the logo , sure hope yall like it .

the banner is designed that extra design can be added quick and painless , if you need the frame just PM me or inert .

i can also randomize the order of designs if you all decide its needed but remember the banner loads on every page so i wonna keep it light
