ComNet image ideas...

- OOC:
- New Images Added!
Dark Jedi Banners Added!
So yeah, I've made up these new images for the High Command to look at, and I thought I'd share em with you all. They're all just screenshots of ComNet with the new images put in the place of the ones we got now. They're not approved as of yet (not that I know of), but they're worth looking at I think. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Now if you notice, they're all themed differently; the first two are for army and second two are for navy My idea was to have these images randomly appear every time that you upload ComNet, so that a different one appears at the top each time (giving them all equal time on the board), just like the images on the Vast Empire main page do. That's mah hopes anyhow. Enjoy.

Or, if its possible, assign each one to the specific character based on which division their in. And if there is a character that's in two division like Navy and DJO, then that person can have the Navy and DJO image alternate every time they get on the ComNet.

I was thinking something like that as well.. but I'm not exactly sure how easy it would be to do so. Seems like there would be a lot of scripting involved to me.
They could be included in specific skins though. That would make it a lot easier, since we would be choosing the skin that has the particular logo image in it.

...Do you have any sort of actual life?
In context on the comnet pages, I felt that the first was by far the best. The other two's borders were too strong, which gave it an odd look.
But I'd back a nice little cleanup like this, good work.

Soccer, baseball, fencing, cross country... as well as the school choir, shakespearian theater and musical theater. Plus I'm an avid writer (working on my third short story, still waiting to be published). So yeah, I do have a life actually.  I do agree that the first one is the best of the three; I know what I have to do to the other two, so expect an update soon.

Personally I'd vote for number two, although the first one (army) is nice, it doesn't have an immediate Star-Warsy theme that we probably should maintain. Third, I don't think most borders will beat the fade to black look.

He's holding a blaster rifle and he's in imperial uniform.. how much more starwarsy does it need to be?  And they all do fade to black nicely, I've tried various levels of intensity with the fade, and personally I think it looks best at the current setting.

Make him a StormTrooper maybe? :P I like the new navy one, although without hte viewport it looks like the guy is floating in space. Not exactly the best place to be :P

Two is now also very good, I'm stuck between one and two being my favourite.
Three, good luck on that one. I like the image a lot, but as Doc rightly put the harsh border just doesn't look right. Not sure how that can be faced however, without ruining the image itself.

The new DJO one is in progress, I'm looking for a suitable image of a "dark jedi" or sith that has some kind of pose that works harmoniously with the other two images. I will probably keep the Korriban Statues as a support for the image, but I'm not sure. Instead of the explosion or planet background that are in the former two, the DJO will probably have a blue lightning effect in the back to symbolize the power of the force.
Should have it up by Friday.

I like the new DJO one, although the position of the lightening makes it look too square, and instead of the black bits looking like background, it looks empty... that probably didn't make a whole lot of sense.
Just make the lightening a little less rigid, is all i'm saying.
Fantastic work though
