Board Recustomization

Hi everyone ,

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

If you have any picture or colour 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 colours 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 colours will be taken into serious consideration, but in the interest of seeing every board receive the best customised look possible the final decision concerning how this board will be customised 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 customisation process, see this thread. If you have any questions, please feel free to send Mel, Catia or Chelle a PM or ask the Team on the message board customisation thread.

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

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 colours get put up. It will then be re-opened so that you can share your thoughts about it.

Mel, Catia and Chelle

Thanks for starting this Catia! I'll post gallery and color scheme links soon.

Hannah, we're probably going with the pictures from this year's Comic Con photoshoots and photo sessions because they're the latest, you agree right?

And do you have any specific colors that would be associated with Josh? I don't think there are any

I already saw a few palettes that I think would look good and would be a nice change from what we have now, I'll post them later and you can pick your favourites from them. And you can also have a look at the site from the OP too and post any that you like from there if you want.

Here are some links to the latest pictures we got.
Portrait #037 - 2017 - TCA Summer Tour - Josh Hutcherson France | Pictures Gallery
Portrait #031 - 2017 - SDCC - Chris Pizzello - Josh Hutcherson France | Pictures Gallery

Those have watermarks in some annoying places but just in case alternatives are needed.
Portrait #033 - SDCC - Getty Images - Josh Hutcherson France | Pictures Gallery

More alternatives.
Portrait #035 - SDCC - Vulture - Josh Hutcherson France | Pictures Gallery
Portrait #034 - SDCC - LA Times - Josh Hutcherson France | Pictures Gallery

Preferably have one or two fun ones but other than that, no special requests, whatever works best. If there's a problem with quality or anything, let me know and I can try to find other versions.

----------

As for palettes, I think those can work:
https://www.design-seeds.com/seasons...color-serve16/
https://www.design-seeds.com/seasons...color-nature8/
https://www.design-seeds.com/in-natu...olor-vignette/

So basically smoky/greyish blues with reddish purples. Hannah, what do you think?

We have now finished making all the graphics and the Graphics Team are going to vote on a winner, so this thread will now be closed until the colours and graphic have been set up - then we will re-open it so you can tell us what you all think!

If you have questions please post them on the Info Center's Message Board Customization Process Thread, but please check the opening post to see if your question has been answered there first.

Thank you everyone,
Catia.
