Title: New Banner
Post by: *MAFIA* Balthazar on November 30, 2011, 02:21:52 PM
Seeing as that things are moving towards the future (finally right?)

I would like to see a new banner reflecting as such. The banner on the top of the page plays a huge part in how people perceive the clan.

So, with that being said, I would like to see a banner more reflective of modern times i.e. Desert & Urban Warfare/BF3 rather than WW2/BF42

I would not object to a flash based banner but naturally a static would do just as well, if it fits what we are going for.

What the hell are you talking about, there are no Mexicans  O0 on the top of this page......oh wait, never mind you said "banner".  My bad   :lolz:

Excellent Idea, maybe a flash to rotate between the two or just the new one to own all others.

We need some more contestants.  I expect maybe Misfit, Malbert, Blakjax, Blackout, Vermillion, Dillpickle, IronMan, Mezmorize, and Maggot.

Ricardo will ultimately make one of the best designs but whiny noobs like Hellraiser who still have an unhealthy obsession over him will promptly deny it.

I really like where this one is heading.

I think if somebody could trying the following:

Use Malbert's basic layout and sharpen and smooth the elements out a bit.

Use the idea from Headhunters about adding the server information, but animated text like what Scooby has done, but a more fade in/fade out animation.

Use the same font style that Tony has in his reading "*MAFIA*" over the skull making sure it's proportional to the rest of the elements in size.

Possibly have the skull fade out into what Tony has in the middle of his.

But I didn't like it so I did another:

Now of course you know I have to critique...

If you could somehow alternate between the second and the first like the image is being transmitted via satellite (like what you have done with third) then we'll put this bad boy up for a vote.

And add explosions to the buildings so it looks like someone flew a plane into them.

And add glitter so it looks like it's on fire right before it falls to the ground.

Well that's good, you wont learn a damn thing then. Now, if you were using X-Plane, then I would have a bit of concern.

Stick with the car bombs, I hear no thought needed there, anyone can drive while one of your bros call up the bomb.

#2 is the best. Hellraiser (French Hoe Het) also agrees with me.

#1 has too much text on it, and I don't think anyone cares about IP's. No one is going to type in an IP to connect to a server, they just search the name.
