Board Customization

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

I'm super excited for this, time to post some suggestions.

These are just my opinions so feel free to throw other things down, I'm not really picky.

For color's I had two ideas in mind. Either a sort of warm and pinkish tone, or a lavender/blue sort of cross over.

The following are more reds/pinks/purples. (I know we veer away from reds...with that in mind I don't have preference if it turns out more on the pink hued side.)
Color Fall
Autumn Glow
I like the purples, and pinkish grays from the above pallets. I also like the warm tones in it.

The following are blues/purples.
Color View 2 (The colors on this are a little bold so they may need to be turned down if this is going to be used.)
Color View Sabine (This one is a kind of inbetween as it has both burgandy, lavender, and blue shades. It may be easier to work with in terms of color.) This is my favorite pallet and would love to see the color scheme make its way into banners.

As for photoshoots, the following are some of my favorites:
Matthias Vriens-McGrath [Glamour UK] 2017
Jay L. Clendenin [Los Angeles Times] 2016
Dudi Hasson 2013
Yann Bean 2013

If you guys need different or more photoshoots let me know. I'm sure you all will do a great job on the banners!

We would probably have to go with either of the first 2 photo shoots 2013 right now is 4 years old and by the time it’s applied as a customization might become 5-6 years old

Though I really the second photo shoot aka from 2016

your colour scheme ideas cause I think anyone of them are toned down versions of still being able to represent WW. Softer red or brown related to blue or gold

I'd prefer if the more recent shoots were used but I threw in the 2013 ones for sake of good quality and a bigger selection. Even though they're old Gal hasn't changed much since they were taken in terms of appearance. But I do see what you mean when the board has aged so will the pictures...so who knows what Gal will look like in a few more years.

Edit: I really like this scheme that Ina suggested.

Oh Ina really like that 3rd option so pretty much am good with either 2nd and 3rd photo shoot

Wonder how a brown would look with either toned down red or blue she wears plenty of both related to outfits and wouldn’t just be WW related

I'd be content with either of these schemes: Color Harvest or Color View Sabine.


Sarah, this is the only decent one I could find in terms of brows mixed with reds/blues.

Edit: To be honest I still like Ina's #3--Color Harvest the best.

I like all of these, so you guys decide

Maybe we should chose the pics and then see which of there would match better?

I really like the green tone from the 3--Color Harvest one.

I like that example you posted for me related to brown/blue

Hope others come to offer opinions

Think 3rd photo shoot that Ina posted is now my fave

I like both the 3rd photoshoot and 3rd colors Ina posted.

Ina, you're killing it!
