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, Aurora 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, Aurora and Chelle

Is there a particular reason why you paired photoshoots with colour schemes?

Looking at those colour schemes I feel Fresh Hues (the first one) would be too bright. We also try to avoid using red. If you're a fan of the sorts of colours found in the Create Tones & Succulent Tones ones (the middle two) we could combine them as they look similar. If you wanted some vibrancy to go with them we may be able to take some of the shades from the other two & use them in smaller areas, although as I said before we try to avoid red since it is quite a harsh colour on the eyes.

Do you have a link to where the first pictures are from? As they are they won't be usable as they're low quality

Gotcha! Well im fine with whatever color wise. I was just choosing colors that went with each photo set. I’d love input from other posters.
If I had to choose colors though, I’d say greys paired with blue, green, or peach.
Like maybe one of these?

We cut out the pictures & can match most pictures to any colour scheme so you don't need to match things up

Just those colours combined as a colour scheme could work . Maybe more grey, aqua/blue/green, peach?

I choose all those sets too Donna!
Set #2 of yours is my fave.
Love the color scheme!
I’d definitely love a mix of grey, green, and peach.
