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

Ahhh I'm so excited! The time has come Thanks for this!

Okay so I think we should at least have the main 8 characters: Reed, Kate, Lauren, Andy, Clarice, John, Lorna, and Marcos. I'm not sure if anyone wants to include Turner?
I know Skyler is going to be a main person in season 2, but she just came in the show and I don't know if I wanna include her since she's playing 3 characters and I don't wanna put too many in.

There's promo photos here and here (Can anyone find these on another site? I can't).

If you need to know who is who, here's names with faces:
Reed
Kate
Lauren
Andy
Clarice
John
Lorna
Marcos
Turner

As for colors, I think maybe yellows/blues/browns? Or maybe something like this or even this?

Do you guys have any suggestions?

You can look for color schemes on the design seeds site I may keep searching for others.
I had suggested yellow, blue, brown for colors?

I don't think the 1st one would work.
So you're thinking of pinks/purples/blues? I was trying to do colors that you see quite a bit in the show, but if you think we should try something else..?

The colours used don't have to match the show, they just should be colours you'd be happy with

The first one would be, yes. You could possibly combine the two though to lessen the brightness


ETA: I have no idea what sorts of colours you both like or are thinking, but based on what's been thrown around in here I had a little look around for some ideas. I was thinking maybe you could go with creamy/yellow browns with pinks/purples/blues to combine your ideas? One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six. You could also always make up a colour scheme if you can't find one you like

I know but I thought it just fit if we did it that way I'm not opposed to other colors though.
Ohh Chelle thanks for those I quite like all of those. Especially #2, #5, and #6.

What do you think, Jen?
