I don't take any credit for this, but I managed to nab the background from the old VGUnetwork.

Forum Graphix Competition - Page 2 F79RG0G

Once again, I did NOT make this, but I feel like if it were used then it would definitely help bring back the feel of the old site.

alright gentlemen, we need a browser bar icon
the current one is this green chat-box
Forum Graphix Competition - Page 2 Favicon

we have alternatives like
Forum Graphix Competition - Page 2 FormForum Graphix Competition - Page 2 KeyForum Graphix Competition - Page 2 BookForum Graphix Competition - Page 2 SmileyForum Graphix Competition - Page 2 WorldForum Graphix Competition - Page 2 WriteForum Graphix Competition - Page 2 ScreenForum Graphix Competition - Page 2 Talk
(best viewed in firefox or waterfox, chrome distorts them cause they are .ico files )

but I was thinking we can make a custom version of our own Very Happy 
what do you think? I think they're 16x16 so not a lot to squeeze into it...
found this cool smilie as a potential temporary place-holder:
Forum Graphix Competition - Page 2 Coolsm10
would you like to see this instead of the current green chat-bubble?

@SixPowered - the initial background picture was much thinner and longer.
( http://hitskin.com/themes/16/64/44/i_background.jpg )
I'll try the VGU one and I hope it tiles well, but I was okay with the initial one too,
especially since to me it's barely noticeable... cheers for finding it, though Wink

EDIT: You were absolutely right, it feels much more like the original VGU
with this background you've brought back from the dead Very Happy
much appreciated! you well deserve your title hehe

Anything in specific for the banner? Like does it have to be related to Fallout or games in general? Or as simple as VGU Network and some crazy effects behind it will do? I guess keep it between a little Fallout would help like the others with the bolt in the O.

@Jimmakos - you still made them too big though xD

@endgame
putting a vault boy in seems a bit too limiting of the identity and purpose of the site.
sure, we have fallout mods, but we'd like everything else as well.

putting a bunch of characters from a bunch of videogames in would seem too crowded, though
best bet is to go with a catching background and a nice font

also, if you can include, in smaller text, the whole words:
"Video Games Underground Network"
that would let a lot of people know what VGU stands for
in case there are still misunderstandings.

'preciate it and good luck

I had in mind making one banner myself but i knew that this would be time consuming and i dont have that much atm.A good banner would indeed had to have a "Video Games Underground Network" or "VGU network" as center and might the volt boy right and a skyrim armor helmet to the left with a bunch of art round round

@DVAted
How much excactly is the size of the forums icons,i can resize them if you want and you can give them a test

@Jim: well the ones we have (and have accepted so far) are 50x50
the one you gave as example in the quote box is also 50x50
the ones you edited and uploaded are 118x118 (more than double)
that's what I meant Very Happy

also, balancing the vault boy with a skyrim helmet is again a bad idea
in the sense that we'd limit ourselves to Fallout and Skyrim fans
instead of any kind of Video Games fans.
and including a whole bunch of other video game characters would be,
as previously stated, too crowded, or rather, overkill closed eyes smile

Give it a shot, though, any submissions are accepted
(as long as they're not pornographic I guess haha closed eyes smile)

@endgame: looking forward to your work Wink

Okay, I gave a look at the thread, I really like the SixShooter's folders, very well done, noticed them first when I looked at the site. Also the Samatron's icons "who's online" have a nice concept and design, the colors perhaps were a little unfitting, but nice work.

DVA I see you have definitely some preferences and that's what exactly I was asking in the other thread. I see you favor a futuristic/clean style, the Mass Effect fonts are an example.

Okay, it seems the major need are the little elements. As soon as I can work on it, I'll submit some.
:-)

@OK: hey, it's not about what I favor TongueTril
it's your forum as much as it's mine
who know what I like? you might surprise me with your own personal approach
be yourself and then we'll see what works best, everything can be put up for voting.

@Old Coot - nice casino chip, but it's not exactly 50x50 now is it? closed eyes smile

@DVA thanks, the community is far more nicer than I would have hoped for, very glad to be part of it. :-)

About the matter at hand, I did some experiments.
The site could be refreshed with very little changes, I submit you a possible example, it may look a bit basic but it's a scheme with space for improvement. You see the changes just involves the background that goes repeating on the th secondarytitle and the td cat, the new buttons under the banners and the integrate text in the banner about the site, I've used that banner as reference since it's the one of mine you like, but you could use any and just leave the text in Verdana using 4b4b4b or 4a4a4a or something close to that, it would be fitting imo.

I also suggest, in case you are willing to do some changes, to lower the white overall and replace every FFFFFF with at least a b5b5b5 for the text, it still appears to be white, but with less flashy contrast, I think it's much better for the look and the eyes.

Another thing, you really did a lazy job assigning the white to all the text, you could achieve a good looking result just with a solid background if you manage to assign the right colors to the text. I'm not a fan myself of mixing too much, but just one different color among a primary one (the color primarily used I mean) shouldn't be bad. So you could keep the "white" as the main one, of course, and just assign to a title a different one, just to reach a nicer visual effect.

You see I did give a try assigning the single color to the body background, the site would look more clean, maybe too plain (?), it's an option anyway. I also made a little lateral background, just indicative, which is obviously not to be repeated.

Now, after seeing a little the whole thing and some way to improve without drastic changes, I was going to focus on the little elements but it's difficult to do so without a main theme in mind because the elements should be created accordingly. The main theme would be defined by the header but since it's not going to be stable, it's quite hard to decide about one style. You better take a look at the notes in the screen that are quite explicative of everything and see if you have a preference on the little elements, even if I didn't had the time to try much combinations there is a glowing one and some other more solid. The buttons under the banner are obviously based on that banner, but that's very easy to change, not a problem, it's just difficult to decide.  There are so many possibilities I'm quite stuck trying to figure out what style would be suitable for any kind of header, or at least what wouldn't be too much unsuitable.

In case you still don't come out with any defined preference about shapes, colors, glowing, glass effect or anything, then okay, I'll try to create something keeping it as neutral as I can. It may be not about what you favor, but neither about my personal approach, must be something that suits the site! :-)

Hope you like some of the suggestions and things in the scheme. I think it would be worth to do some changes, it's not like you have to code the site entirely.
(The first "you" here is referred to all the users of course, the last "you", well… okay, that's you DVAted). :-)


Gotta love these spoilers, they gave the pics awful quality even if I didn't resize. Well, I'm not sure how much you can see in there, but that's it. I suppose I can't do nothing about.
