Board (Re)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. 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 Rora 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 Rora

Pick a photoshoot per person first and then go from there?

^ Yes, how orange?

I wouldn't mind some small orange undertones but I think I would like to keep the mint green vibe we have going on. What does everyone think? For example, I like these colors, and they could maybe look good mixed with these. Also love this.

Some general things for the banner:
- They have been on hiatus so we will need to use pics from 4 different photoshoots... I am very sorry in advance, I remember how I used to hate this when I was on the team. :')
- One Direction has an "official" font, but we don't like it don't care much about it, so feel free to use something else.
- We would really appreciate if Harry and Louis were next to each other on the banner because #NextToYou
- I would love if the general vibe was fun, like the one we have now, with them smiling and just being chill. I know this request might be a bit more difficult, because if depends on the photoshoots that they have, but yeah. That it would be lovely. :')

Regarding the photoshoots that could be used on the banner, I need help for this. :')

Some links of pics that could work for Harry:
1
2
3, 4, 5, 6
7, 8, 9
10
11
12

I'm gonna look for pics for the other boys, but yeah, feel free to help pls.

There are some individual photoshoots of the boys here but they're from 2018 so not sure if there's more recent ones you'd rather use

Galleries I found:
Harry 1 / Harry 2 (both most recent 2018) / Harry 3 (no dates)
Liam 1 (most recent: 2019) / Liam 2 (most recent: 2020) / Liam 3 (no dates)
Louis (no dates)
Then I can't find anything for Niall



They've all either released an album last year or this year (or about to), so is there any way to use pictures from them? Surely there are photoshoots for them somewhere?

There just aren't up-to-date galleries for most of them.

Louis has had more recent photoshoots. Fabulous and his album shoot, same for Niall and Harry.

Essential.


EDIT: https://dailytomlinson.tumblr.com/tagged/photoshoot This is basically where you'll find all Louis pictures, I'm not too particular about which picture is used (if I don't like it, I'll tell you on GT. ), the more recent the better.
https://dailytomlinson.tumblr.com/po...ulous-magazine This is part of his fabulous shoot (feb 2020)


Harry also had a Fabulous shoot end of december? Plus boy is a model so he has so many photoshoots.

Yeah, sadly there aren't many good galleries out there, it's easier to find pics on tumblr, there are some fan accounts that are very updated. I got Harry's pics from one of those, and linked them to make it easier.

Harry has a lot of recent photoshoots, including pics for his albums, but most of them aren't really ~usable for the banners. He didn't do Fabulous, his most recent photoshoots were for The Guardian (which is what I linked on 7, 8, 9) and also for Rolling Stones, but those pics aren't good for the banner. :/

What about his album shoot? Otherwise I'm very strong supporter of prince harry by gucci, but also this one from the ones you posted:

I think he also looks super cute on this one.
seriously; that was my second choice as well. It's a great one.

Why so artistic, Harold, but beautiful.

I'll check the Niall ones later.
Then there's Liam... I think for the album promo he probably did some things?

a lot going on here, and a little confusing since i've been out of the loop with the boys.

in the end, when you're done looking for pics, could you guys point out just one or two options for each guys or at least tell us which one are your favourite ?

We already did so for Louis and Harry?

For Niall (going through the ones Catia posted), my favourites would have to be:
1. https://dailyniallnews.tumblr.com/po...or-apple-music
2. https://dailyniallnews.tumblr.com/po...mash-up-100819

The most recent shoots of Liam though... Probably album or Hugo?
