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

I just did a quick search & found these:
Haute Living (2016)
Grazia France (2015)
Festival de filmes de Cannes: Alternative View (2015)

There's also two usable pictures here if you know of any others from that shoot?



Really it all depends on what you're hoping for & wanting for the graphic. There's also a number of photoshoots where he's wearing a hat which could be usable too

Are there any colours you'd like to see used? Have you had a chance to look at the design seeds website?

I sort of like the green. I also really like the color scheme of the 80s board here on

Unfortunately we can't use black & white pictures or ones where his head is cut off at the top. There's a couple of usable pictures in your selections though. Is there a specific photoshoot you like? or are you happy for us to mix & match with your suggestions ?

Was there a specific green you liked on that site? Was it these? Perhaps you like some of these: 1, 2, 3?

I'm personally a big fan of this shoot https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C_abRIjXcAAQYeW.jpg he just looked so good. But if you can't use those then mixing is OK. I can try to find more photos.

If there's a specific shoot you like, please link us to the complete shoot. We can't know otherwise which pictures are from the same one.

Easier link to look at them all is here. Right? The ones with the white background?
And thank you for the link.

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.
