Also, concerning the strategy icons, I asked my friend to redraw higher res versions of the broodwar race icons, how are these? + Show Spoiler + Here's them in banner form: And a pretty red version for zerg Great! They certainly look better than the current ones, I hope they'll be there tomorrow if not today | ||

I think Gecko might be working with Hyde for a new set of icons/logos? I don't seem him online on IRC at the moment to confirm... But yea, changing those banners don't require any special technical access, just a matter of aesthetics/staying on-brand | ||

Anyway pr3ch, when can we expect the banner to be on Liquipedia? Why not put the Zerg one up first, so that people can see how it looks for real and add potential other ones later? | ||

Thanks to everyone for all the suggestions -- Adding a Zealot graphic to the OP In chatting with the LP staff, it's possible, technically, to alternate between the three graphics with each page load, but I don't know as far as aesthetics go... | ||

I think facing left may be preferable because the red/dark background on the right side of the flipped image contrasts too starkly with the blue background... whereas the original is blue-ish on the right side and fits a bit better | ||

It'd give an opportunity to folks who don't visit the TL forums daily...plus a more convincing argument for the admins | ||

I asked Salle why we're not using them. Salle said: nobody asked Hyde yet 3. I asked Hyde. Hyde said "of course". Hyde also said "why not revamp the main page?" 4. I replied with: I do not know how to do it, I do not have time. 5. I sent Hyde to Salle. 6. Here ends my story. | ||

For the whole top banner from end to end. Not only the corner. | ||

The picture needs to be wider and text needs to be moved slightly to the right. | ||

and a version of the hydra with the fade not affecting its arm From the talks I've had with prech, it seems the admins have agreed to use the larger sized text when the banners are changed. Also, what do people think about how well the images blend with the light-blue banner background? Do you think there is too much contrast or is it fine? If not we've received a suggestion to crop out the image backgrounds and create something or use a design, which we could try I suppose (I personally like the planetary backgrounds that come with the image). There's also the possibility of doing something with the light-blue background instead. Otherwise, if people like the protoss banner and we decide on which hydralisk version to use, we should have our 3 banners finalized. | ||
