Keep Aerith in the banner, it seriously adds so much more to it.

Not to mention that it's a subtle, and very important theme to FFVII.

I don't really see how adding a little floating Aerith in the background could be considered overkill.. (clarification?)

On a more technical note: So what all needs to be done before we can compose everything into a skin?

I like Aerith in the banner too.

Eh - I just thought that - the website is called The Lifestream.Net and a glittering green graphic that portrays what's come to be very well known in the Final Fantasy fandom (or so I would think) as a visual representation of the Lifestream in the Compilation of FFVII...

Aerith's representation is kind of redundant as well as 'overkill' - I would think the title as well as the graphics would allow anyone to know it's a FFVII fansite. That's all.

It's just a feeling I get see it; there is no discounting Aerith in my comments, just her representation here for the website. Again, if it's what you want, go for it - I just thought to mention my opinions.

I like the work being done, either way - and will most likely use it.

 

[Ⓐaron]

You can do that? In that case, never mind, just use this

yeah I don't remember the code for it offhand but it's pretty simple. That's how ACF did its banners as well, if memory serves correctly.

 

[X-SOLDIER]

You oughta shop a revised version of this image & perhaps one for the frontpage.

One thing I'm unsure about is the white drop-shadow on the links makes it look frosty, which clashes with the ambience of the header.

I also thought Aerith made the header a little morbid, but it's growing on me now.

Here's it all photoshopped together. It gives a better impression of the ambiant feel

Im not too sure about that font colour btw... just trying it out. Maybe a bit lighter and less imposing, like b3f6f2

 

[Tetsujin]

The glow in the sidebars and the banner on top doesn't really fit together though.
Apart from that, it looks awesome. Font color should be tweaked a bit.

 

[Ⓐaron]

Basically, what Tet said .

 

[Alex]

It still looks like the sex though

 

[Ⓐaron]

Indubitably

 

[Pixel]

Here it is flipped vertically

 

[Ⓐaron]

Looks excellent to me; well done.

 

[Channy]

So question, what sort of new buttons have you done so far? We've got to get rid of these horrid default blue vbulletin buttons.

 

[Pixel]

 

[Channy]

Pixel you are Godly.

 

[Tetsujin]

Can the sidebars be fixed? To match the banner?

And awesome work on those buttons. =o

 

[Pixel]

Do you mean the background gradiant?

 

[Tetsujin]

Yup.

 

[Rumpelstiltskin]

I think he means the borders of all threads etc, its slightly more darker green than everything else on the board.
Having it match either the normal dark green or the very light green would prob make it look better.

 

[Pixel]

The borders look fine to me, they're supposed to have a slight matte shine to them

This is the best i could do for the bg thing. dont know, i liked it more before, i think i need opinions

 

[Channy]

That looks awesome. But at the same time, it seems a bit... off to have the original forum background such a dark colour and then the gradient a brighter one. :/

 

[Alex]

Nonsense. It looks reinvigorated, the current forum background is too dark for my tastes.

 

[Ⓐaron]

Yeah, seems fine to me.
