that...is quite nifty

That might might be a bit too distracting at the top of the page, but how about a countdown clock to the release of SKYFALL somewhere at the bottom of the forum index.... Mrs. Sects?

I take it you had a nice vacation, Doggie?

Wouldn't mind something like M's avatar as a banner. It'd be a little brighter.

It's odd you should say that, because my avatar was actually a failed banner design. The original image was a bit too small, which would have meant either reducing the width of the forums or increasing the picture size (but therefore losing resolution) in order to use it. I liked the image though, so I downsized it to keep as an avatar.

If somebody has a bigger copy of the London image, please post it and I'd happily go with it as the banner. I could kill EON for giving us such a dark poster, because strictly colourwise I hate the top of the forum but want instantly recognisable Skyfall imagery there. That's exactly why I tried to make the London skyline banner work.

Very nice. With a little luck we'll be off again in August...the other pair of grandparents want...no...demand time too :face:

Nice avatar Mrs Sects. Maybe not as odd as it first seems, as there's usually plenty of spider's legs within that vicinity. Only a matter of time before full-on spidey turned up.

I hope to God it's his web Spidey descends on in that avvy. :shock:

What else might he be descending on, BI?

:)

Erm, well ... part of a feminine hygiene product which ladies require the use of once a month for about a week.

To put it as delicately as possible. :)

Or Spider Spunk.

Two lovely possibilities.

j7wild could have taught all of you about tampons....

There's a countdown widget, with HTML code to embed it into the site, here

Bear in mind it's counting down to the UK release date, October 26...

That's great. Now if there's a way M could put that on the index page....

Re: current banner. BOND AND BEYOND text background needs to match the white sky, and the banner should be shorter (lengthwise). Too much empty space.

That's a lot better. I suggest cloning the sky and going over the grey patches with a brush.

I shortened that hyperlink Mrs. Sects posted, as it was fucking with the page width (at least on my end).

Maybe gold instead of purple, sampling from the flag pole.

Maybe too crowed for text, but this would make a cool banner.

Sorta cropped like that.



Maybe too busy. I'd say with what you've got, but with the clouds and a sorta dirty gold text.

It's a firing line in the distance.

"Honey, I Shrunk the Bonds"

I like this. Perhaps with BOND AND BEYOND in white with a grey outline on the bottom right?

Or a banner focused on Lana Wood's cleavage. I'm not picky.

Only if the text is contoured to the tits.

j7, take photos of your wife and get to work on this ASAP.

Oh yeah, he can't read that because he's banned forever.

Really loving the new banner, especially the inclusion of the Union Jack.

New banner is pretty nice.
