ehhhh....

Hey, I like it. But that's just me.

S'not bad.

If you guys wanna design a frontpage logo, feel free! Sechs, Rags, and I will pick the best one, and I'll do my best to implement it. If you wanna use existing art of our characters, cool; if you wanna create brand new art for it, even better!

Is it wrong to get a boner from the front page. (If this was the front page.)

If Jessica disapproves, request someone else to draw Sechs! ;)

This would also be a great thread for people to make a banner for the site, so i can put it on KemonoChan. I did the scrolling one on mine and could probably do a moving gif one of Sechs for the site if you wanted.

Also i personally like front pages, gives it a professional feel. Shame Lulz one is so dull and pawsru's news one is... Well it's Palcomix so yeah.

Works for me.

This is now the official "design resources for TGFB" thread - ad banners, front page logos, page banners (like on /fisk/), maybe a new CSS style or two...go nuts and start designing.

If you wanna take a crack at the CSS, here's all the files for both the actual Kusaba X boards and our image storage section (which is powered by Fuckflickr): http://www.mediafire.com/?ygxtiytnmjd

Do you guys have a specific resolution you would prefer for the frontpage image?

>>44290

If it's cool with you Freehaven, I wouldn't mind taking a crack at making an ad banner for tgfb to stick on Emee's site. Just need to know what resolution i should be working in.

>>44296

I'd say that for the frontpage image, the OP image is about the largest you should be shooting for; anything smaller is fine, too.

As for adbanner design, I'd like a 600x98 banner, like the ones we use for our adspace here.

>>44298

I'll see what I can come up with.

>>44291

By the way, i made that url ico file for you, i can understand if you changed you mind on it. If so, just say if you want me to try another one and i do it to your liking :3

>>44301

Oh, I liked it, I just keep forgetting to upload it. I'll get around to it soon, probably by the end of the week. (I like to procrastinate.) X3

Bad artist here, but a suggestion for the 404 page (if someone would like to draw it): Rags rifling through a filing cabinet, visibly worried.

Also, I'd like to say something for anyone who wants to take a crack at the CSS: I'd actually like to see some CSS ideas that are kinda outside the normal "look" of an imageboard. So if you really like to mess with CSS, just go nuts. I can test things out in Stylish and see how they look, and if I like it, I'll definitely try to implement it. :D

That's one.

If you guys see anything in my attempts that you think need reworking, I keep all the PSD files in my hard-drive so i can edit.

I liked OP's layout so thought i would do something similar.

Also, is it possible to have rotating front page images, sorta like how you have rotating ad banners?

>>44309

Yeah, shouldn't be too much of an issue.

>>44287

Lol, I don't mind at all. I like the one the OP did!

That's two

Don't suppose you guys would ever consider using something demotivational poster like for a front page?

I'll work on the ad banner later.

>>44307

I hate the background on this.

Imma redo it at some point.

We need more pics of Sage for people to use in banners.

Hey, Jessica, you've done two of the more popular pics of Sechs - any chance you can do a pic of Sage? X3

Can we avoid "common" fonts like OCRA and Times Roman, please?

>>44315
>implying there's more pictures of Rags than Sage

>>44317

Hush, Rags, Jess already did a pic of you. Granted, it was as a loli bear, but still. :P

>>44316

>>Can we avoid "common" fonts like OCRA and Times Roman, please?

Point noted, I'll fix that on the first one i did when I go in to change the background.

My bad ^^;

>>44319

Two pics ;P

>>44344

Ooooh, I like it! Especially the little logo. Very nice. :D

>>44344
Nice

>>44344
Nice!

Here's the TGFB logo that portzebie made for his banner. I really like this. :D

>>44348

Is it cool if I use this as the background for when I actually get around to touching up my first front page attempt?

>>44349

Go right ahead! I don't mind.

OP here

This is the tube I did from J.E's art. Maybe anyone could find it useful.

Attempt Two.

Please tell me that >>44268 , >>44344 , and myself aren't the only ones who're going to try this.

>>44353

Maybe have a little glow around the text to have it pop out.

>>44353
Too visually busy, choose one colour for the text and stick with it, lose the outer glow on the big text at the back so it doesn't detract attention from the foreground text. Actually just choose one to keep and lose the other, foreground or background, I personally like the background. It may not say the name but if you're on this site you are going to know what it's called.

>>44344

Wow! Impressive :3

Sage, if you want this instead of the one I'm using now on my board just say.

>>44369

Only if you want to. I like your banner, too. :3

>>44370

Compromise, later on tonight i will try to remember to put them both on rotation :3

A few things:

• http://www.sendspace.com/file/uhl8fk - A collection of (mostly-)Kusaba X-compliant CSS styles compiled by Tahko over at Kusaba X. Anyone looking to make a CSS theme for us, you can probably use these for inspiration.
• The main style in the CSS files I provided earlier in the thread - the default style for the site - is "Futaba". Oh, and for the style to be site-wide, you'll need to make the CSS style for more than just the main boards (the "site_" and "sitemenu_" files are for the front page and management sections of the site; "text_" is for text-only boards, but we don't have any of those, so it's not super important that you make a textboard style).
• If you're looking to make a board banner (like on /fisk/), the desired dimensions are 300x100.

>>44352
Pff, a condom. Not a chance.

>>44475
Safe sex is where it's at, broski!

For those thinking about playing around with the CSS: >>/sage/343

Emee, your banner's running on FA right now; I sent it to 'Neer for the April Fools' Day ad rotation. :3

>>44352
whose art? i like this but never seen it before

Shit, wish i'd read this earlier. I would of loved to have seen a screenshot of that, shame :c

I recently downloaded some pretty bitchin' graffiti fonts, and I'm considering using them for a new possible front page attempt, but wanna get some feedback first.

My main concern is that people are gonna have trouble reading what they're saying.

>>/site/686

New CSS option! :D

>>44353 Good
>>44344 Wonderful
>>45263 too similar to lulz.net

>>45404

>>too similar to lulz.net

Noted, I wouldn't have known that however, seeing as how i never visit lulz

>>45404
>>too similar to lulz.net
WTF? It isn't even close!

>>44344
This one rocks.

>>45263 This is the best one up here really. It looks more like a music album than it does Lulz's logo.

Portz's logo is pretty, go with it!

>>44344
Nice job, actually works as a banner.
