Commissioner Beketov 9,101 Posted September 28, 2013 Commissioner Share Posted September 28, 2013 Feel free to delete this once we get things ready to go. I wanted a topic to discuss what you guys want to see skin wise though. Plus it'll double as a place to test new skin designs. Kora and I were thinking of a clean, lean, professional looking skin. A lot of light / dark grey with some blue hints to keep with our classic colour. Maybe some nice thin font work as well. I'm leaving most of the design aspects up to him but that's what we're thinking. Thoughts? Dil 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/3-skin-stuff/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
sterling 2,000 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Do you guys have the logos? This site seems to be more customizable, ie each team can have a skin design.

Commissioner Beketov 9,101 Posted September 28, 2013 Author Commissioner Share Posted September 28, 2013 Do you guys have the logos? This site seems to be more customizable, ie each team can have a skin design. Kora did up pretty much all our logos right? I'm sure he has them somewhere. And yeah, the built in skin tools are definitely much better than SMF. They code like Invisionfree which is great because I know it and the skin chooser is built in so it should be easy for us to make multiple skins. Possibly even per team skins as you mentioned.

Guest Squinty Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 tbh, I think we've used blue long enough. Let's move back to red! Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/3-skin-stuff/#findComment-26 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissioner Beketov 9,101 Posted September 28, 2013 Author Commissioner Share Posted September 28, 2013 tbh, I think we've used blue long enough. Let's move back to red! Chances are there won't be a ton of color in the skin anyway. Keep in mind too, skin chooser is built in and coding is easy so we should have plenty of options.

Commissioner Beketov 9,101 Posted September 28, 2013 Author Commissioner Share Posted September 28, 2013 Yeah, bonus stuff is secondary. The skin is technically secondary, might just take a bit to do so I'm looking into it now. Extra bonuses (banner, mods, etc) are all a later time kinda thing.

I hate the dark skin at SHL, and dark skins in general Chances are that we'll eventually have multiple options, both light and dark, although light is definitely the priority. Especially so that the site images look best on all and as well as font colors. Also possible at a later date obviously. I like the concept though.

Commissioner Beketov 9,101 Posted September 28, 2013 Author Commissioner Share Posted September 28, 2013 I have uploaded a free skin we downloaded to sorta have an idea of what is doable with this editor and get a feel for it. If you guys want to access this skin to check it out select "change theme" at the bottom of the page and choose the "WT-Blue: Test Skin" option. This isn't going to be our final skin but should give an idea of the clean style look we're going for.
