I was talking to EF tonight and I brought her attention to some ideas/changed I had in mind for the theme. They're not too huge, so they should be finished soon if we decide to go with them. The small Change I was thinking that the usermenu links and submenu could be switched. that top area would look like this: http://cl.ly/43ea77093a5bbe3fd9af (save the horrible job in color fixing. xD) In my eye it looks more aesthetically pleasing, and this way we have more room for the submenu links so we can avoid unnecessary extra coding of drop-downs, but those could still be used. The Idea EF said she wanted to incorporate more green into the theme, which makes sense. So I brought up the idea of having a vector (one of her specialties! <3) of rolling hills and/or grass at the bottom of the board. This wouldn't be hard to add, and it would add more life/playfulness to the theme. Plus holiday changes (i.e. Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's Day) would be super easy to add because all that would require is a few small vector additions like snow, hearts, scarecrows, etc. I hope you guys share your thoughts/opinions about this, I think both would be good changes but a few might feel differently. Let's debate/discuss!

For the first thing: I prefer how it is now, actually. It just seems to fit better how it is.It's also slightly different than what is usual. ![]() For the second thing: I'd have to see an example on the theme to be able to judge fairly. It's possible, but just having hills at the bottom randomly seems, well, yes... random. You'd likely have to take it a bit further. For instance, make the top bit sky-like. So the scene is more complete/connected. Just some thoughts from a non-designer. ![]() |

First one: not feeling it. The problem I have with the switching of the links is that the userlinks dropdowns cover the previews changer. Not a functional issue, but a clutter one. If that change happens, perhaps the preview box could be moved. The illustrated border is a nice idea, and I could definitely see designs with snow or spring-like images. However...hearts and pumpkins.....not so much. I think oranges and reds will strobe out on this background color. Seeing that in the team colors now. Another thing to consider: if the images get too big, there is the loading issue to think about as well. I remember this being a controversy about Edited by Helena, Aug 19 2010, 03:48 AM.
