PCKF Forum Theme/Skin
Hi People,
So, there was a little talk about a new logo for the forums, so went looking around the net for different things see what I could find. Anyway I came up with a whole new look.
And I've put this into the forum "look". Goes well I think, a couple of edits can be made to make the header text more visible. So, what do you think?
Edit: I found this picture along the way.. I wonder if its of anyone on the keen forums.. levellass maybe?

If you used that background image you'd want the forum colour scheme to also be red and purple, but I think you'd need to change the text colour up the top to make it a bit more readable (maybe a black background behind it or something.)

I like it.
Who's that girl? Where did you find that picture? Cool.

Well, obviously it's nothing official Commander Keen shirt, that's for sure. I should finally, after many years of going-to, get one too...

Thanks for the feedback. It only took about half hour.. maybe an hour knowing how fast time goes by in front of this screen. I did notice the text and background clash. The fix for this would be to move the content down the page so that the text is on the solid red background so its readable. Keen can still be behind the top of the board in the centre as it does not interfere with the text. The Green and Grey where used because they are used in the wrist-watch computer theme. I like the idea of using the red/purple theme for the main forum board.. might work. I'll try it out tomorrow.

So what do the admin's think? Possible optional skin?4D wrote:
I made myself a Commander Keen shirt a while back, actually... pretty much just designed the vector art, printed onto a t-shirt transfer and ironed it on.

Anyway, I think it turned out pretty decently. I'm just waiting to get sued by Apogee now...

If you ask me it could be an optional skin, perhaps the actual forum colours a bit different still, but I don't know if we'll have multiple skins. That's something I'm not allowed to decide on my own.
