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 Color Palettes or Coolors websites. 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 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.

Chelle and Kate

Are there any characters you'd like to see included? Same as you currently have or would you like any changes?

I would like to minimize the Sequel Characters and maximize the OT characters and PT Characters.

Like: Luke, Han, Leia, Vader, Yoda
Anakin, Padmé, Obi-Wan

Then you can stick Rey in there if you have to.

It is your choice which characters are included. If you wanted all three trilogies represented, we can give greater focus to the OT & PT by making those characters bigger & the ST can be smaller & in the background. Or if you'd prefer to only have characters from the OT & PT we can do that too (You're also welcome to include any characters from television series if you'd like too)

Thank you for the suggestions. I just have to find some photos and color swatches for board colors. If anyone has suggestions for color palette sites, please share.

If you want a total color palette change would that be on more of the pink side?

I like a soft rose pink.

How do others feel about pink?

I like pink. It's like the color of a sunset which equals the Sky/Skywalker
