Skins/Header Images

[ShenYu]

That's really starting to come together, EM! Nice work.

Anyways, I've actually put my theme into vB at this point and have got it to a mostly usable state. I've removed the logo until I can think of something better.

Main thing now is changing icons.

Wow... these are coming along great so far... ExMachina, I got some ideas for the header bar... I'm going to assume the header is a background image, with the 8WR logo and the navbar buttons being foreground images. If that is the case, you have a lot of unused space on the top right of each image. I figure this would be a GREAT spot for the "Welcome/Login Block".

Welcome, Jaxel.

This kind of information would be great in it's own box right there. If course, if the user is not logged in, it would instead be the login form just as it is. As well, the buttons are great too... We would need at least four.

ShenYu, this looks amazing. I love the color scheme, it's so refreshing yet humble.

Thanks to Eclair for the stock images, I'm trying to incorporate the SE vs SC one in button/menu BGs as that's what's used in-game.

Anyways, here's version 0.02. :p

Light -


Dark -


Very top space is changeable for user-created banners / different characters, though the logo on the top left is constant throughout for consistency.

vB's default icons kind of wig out on dark backgrounds (see "What's Going On?"), so I'll have to mod 'em or make new ones for a dark scheme.

I'm really liking the 2nd one.
