[room to breathe]

Hi everyone ,

The Fan Forum Graphics Team is in the process of (re)customizing message boards and now it's your turn!

If you have any picture or color suggestions please post them in this thread. Don't post (hotlink) the pictures, links to them are fine. Make sure that the pictures are of as high quality as possible and that the top of the head of the person in the picture isn't cropped off. We also like to use photoshoot images when possible, preferably individual pictures of each cast member. When suggesting colours please keep in mind that some colors will work better than others. The Team usually tries to avoid really vibrant and dark colours because we have found in the past that they are hard to look at for long periods of time. If you would like some help coming up with colour combinations we recommend checking out the design seeds website.

Everyone is encouraged to voice their opinions for this as you are the ones who will be posting on the board and we hope to make as many people happy with the finished result as possible. It does not matter if you are a board moderator, regular poster, or casual poster here. If you have a suggestion, please share it here with us .

Your suggestions for possible pictures and colors will be taken into serious consideration, but in the interest of seeing every board receive the best customized look possible the final decision concerning how this board will be customized will be made by the members of the Graphics Team. This is because we want to make sure that the selected graphic and colours fit into the overall design scheme that we've established for Fan Forum.

For a full explanation of the message board customization process, see this thread. If you have any questions, please feel free to send Rae or Mel a PM or ask the Team on the message board customization thread.

Please leave this topped until a week or so after the board has been (re)customized.

Note: It usually takes less than two weeks for us to finish making the new banner and the sooner we know what you want, the more we can work on it (though it can take a few months or so to set it up with the new colours on the board), so please let us know your suggestions as soon as possible.

When the Team have made and voted on a winning graphic I will close this thread until the graphic and colors get put up. It will then be re-opened so that you can share your thoughts about it.

Rae and Mel

Excited to see this board recustomize

So what do you guys want with the character, stick to the main cast Nathan/Haley/Lucas/Peyton/Brooke or add other characters like Quinn/Millie/Mouth/Clay/Julian?

Congratulations!

[fly me to the moon]

Congrats.. Are we going to use the old cast or new cast? I think that we can stick w/ originals cast but addition???? And Maybe we can have colorful vibe but little bit dark?

[msstock87]

I want to see the old cast for sure, but I wouldn't mind if some new cast were in there too. I wouldn't mind a colorful vibe too, but I am not sure on the colors. What colors does everybody else like?

[GardenSirens]

Original cast all the way!

I can't remember the first color of this board, but maybe it can be like orange-ish or greenish?? I dunno what everyone feel..

[Alexa]

orange seems to fit to me too. i think about the old oth dvd.

but blue is the ravens color as well. maybe blue and orange?

also, i like the core 5 for sure. its simple and easy and everyone has a favorite from there.

but i wouldnt hate to see julian and dan added because they were pretty important too. but then i guess thered be the issue with do we add clay/quinn/ or mouth also.

[break the window]

exciting! can't wait to see the new color scheme

[room to breathe]

Do you have picture suggestions for the characters you would like to see included?

[break the window]

like specific pictures that i can PM to you or post here? not sure

[room to breathe]

All picture suggestions should be posted in this thread (preferably links to them, not hotlinked/posted as images in here). I suggest you look at the photoshoots from the show and see which one/s were your favourites .

[Alexa]

I prob like go w/ navy/grey since that's how their school color??

So for pics I was thinking, we could have the main couples: Lucas/Peyton, Nathan/Haley, Brooke/Julian and if there would be one more character, adding Dan in the back because he's been there from 1 to 9

Lucas: #1
Peyton: #1 or #2
Nathan: #1 or #2
Haley: #1 or #2
Julian: #1 or #2
Brooke: #1
Dan: #1

For color, if we're looking for Blue/Orange, we could have this but lighter version
#1

or if we're looking for sober grey in the background, we'd need something to pop up so either red or orange. We could light up the red so it wouldn't be hard on the eyes from these
#1 #2

what do you guys think?
