[me and the sky]

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. As we want every board to have their own unique look it is preferable that you do not link to the customisations of other boards as suggested colour schemes.

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, Chelle, or Kate 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 approximately 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 finished making the 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, Chelle, and Kate

This is SOOO exciting!! Thanks so much!!

I definitely have some ideas! Also, I think I have some HQ pictures on my computer. It's pretty hard to find any decent HQs. I wish I had access to the HQs on the CW's press site.

thank you yesss exciting

I'll see if I can find links to HQ photos if not do you know how to link your photos Susan? .

Colours did we say blue and yellow?

[broken crown]

We said something sea-ish...since the show is set in Horseshoe Bay, Maine. So either light blue or light green with maybe accents of yellow or gold. It would just depend on how it looks. We need something tha'st pretty and slightly haunting, but not distracting.

I will just upload pictures online and post them in the thread. I think I have some. I'll start looking now.


ETA:

Thumbnails:

: Nancy

: Ace




That's all I have for now. I mostly just have Kennedy and Alex (for obvious reasons ), but I'll have to look for the other cast members later and see what I can find.

[bscgirl99]

I definitely agree with a nautical color scheme. Something like these palettes would be nice.

This is exciting! Sea-ish would be really awesome! It definitely fits the setting. And the intro is kind of blueish/greenish.

I feel like most of the promo/photoshoot pictures are of Kennedy (which makes sense since she plays the titular role ) and HQs of the rest of the cast are a little rarer. I like that first picture of her with the flashlight a lot!

[broken crown]

Great suggestions guys!!

HQs of the rest of the cast are a little rarer

You're not kidding. They're on the CW press site, but you need credentials to download the HQ versions. The couple of sites that I know have HQ pictures, either don't have ND period or barely anything. I keep hoping someone would come along and give me HQs one day...but nope!

[fall like stars]

I’m with you guys on the sea colors/ nautical theme! Would be absolutely perfect!

[shinebrighterxx]

Have you tried SpoilerTV's Gallery? They have a couple of characters & should be HQ or at least good quality

Which characters should be included? Anyone who should be next to each other or not next to each other?

[broken crown]

And that's for the link! I didn't realize they had HQ. Very cool.


Personally I think the order should be Nancy in the middle flanked by Ace and Nick. Bess next to Ace and George next to Nick. Then if you could fit them, Carson and Ryan in the back on either side.

Like this:

Carson Bess Ace MIDDLE: Nancy Nick George Ryan


But honestly, we don't necessarily have to include Carson (especially if I can't find a good picture of him) and Ryan in the banner. It's only important to have the 5 Drew Crew members.

[Summer Falls]

See i think 5 cast , Ryan and Carson and the claw should be in it as well.

Those photos are good love the GT they can find stuff for us

[broken crown]

See i think 5 cast , Ryan and Carson and the claw should be in it as well.

Problem is...IDK if we're gonna be able to find a HQ of Carson. He wasn't included in the SpoilerTV photos and I haven't found any yet. I'll keep looking though. The Claw would have to be in the background or something.

Would they use a screencap or something? IDK.

[ice choco]

Yeah I couldn't find anything of Carson either.
I wouldn't mind just the Drew Crew tbh. They're the core characters. I like you guys' idea with colors

I know I'm not a regular here anymore, but just wanted to put my 2 cents in.

ETA: Wait I found this one. But not sure how well it'd work since it's a whole different lighting.

[broken crown]

Jac!!! I'm glad you came around! We miss you around here!!

Thanks so much for your input!!!

[ice choco]

I edited my post

But yeah I've been doing more things lately.
