Title: New Look Centre Court
trisco - January 21, 2007 08:49 PM (GMT)
Hi Guys,
You will probably notice the change. :P Hope you all like?
There are still a few things that need changing but I don't have enough time right now, I have spent most of the weekend designing all the little buttons etc but there are some that will have to wait!
Let me know of any glitches etc, if you could post them in here it would be appreciated.
Cheers

The banner is great!
To be honest though, I think with the grass/ball on top, and with all the colors, it is getting a little bit crowded, and with the green background the text is a little bit straining on the eyes for me. Perhaps it could still use some fine-tuning? :shrug:
Anyway, a good step forward to a nice personalised appearance for our centre_court, which is good!

Sorry to be contrary, but I enjoyed it most just before you changed it. That orange/red colour looked super on my screen.
Still, I'm sure I'll get used to this new more elaborate look
trisco - January 21, 2007 09:31 PM (GMT)
Glad you like guys.
Nick, hopefully it will grow on you. The orange/blue as only ever going to be for the Oz Open so let's not miss it too much. ;)
MJT, points taken on board, will have a look shortly. I think the text is small in some places.
I have also just paid to have the google ads removed. Don't know how long it will last.
£2.60 for 6p per 1000 page views, so hopefully it should keep us going. If anyone else wants to donate £2.60 using paypal let us know. :D

It may take a little getting used to, but no more than when you added a few extra forums!
*checks all the smilies are still there*
yep, looks all good :D

The new colour scheme and banner look great, though I must agree the text is harder to read than before.

When you're as ancient as me, any change is VERY confusing :( but I'm sure I'll get used to it, Tris, and I do like the colours, so that's a start.

Is the text better now people?
liam_valid - January 21, 2007 09:47 PM (GMT)
I like it, it feels like spring is here, and green is my favourite colour :D

Perfect now. I can read it from 6ft away (as I lean back in my executive chair ;) )

I like the idea of a colour that changes with the seasons. Like red fro clay, green for Wimbledon etc . The blue/green is about right for the AO.

Thats why there was a slight delay. Been doing the banner since about 4pm so took 3 hours to do. :yikes:
Quite rare for me to have time to sit down and do something like that so I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I personally must say that I personally would prefer having the text background be white (or at least white-ish); I think it's slightly better now, but I just find the green is straining my eyes. Maybe it's just my age beginning to show. :shrug:

Or perhaps your computer screen :shrug:
I find the paler shade of green quite mild...
It would be a shame to change it back to white as the colour scheme is the best part. Like Liam, green is my favourite colour :D
Along with blue.

But there's not Lindsay on it . . .
It's quite nice, though. I like that pic of Sharapova, with the sweat glistening on her . . . umm . . . shoulder. ;)

I knew somebody would comment on that image!
barrystar - January 22, 2007 03:30 PM (GMT)
Yeah - the sweatapova picture is most excellent. Nice one of Hingis too.
SuperBRAT - January 22, 2007 09:58 PM (GMT)
When I logged on I thought I'd got th ewrong place. :D
Must say I preferred the old banners. It's a masterpiece but there's just too much Sharapova on that one and a huge Hingis. The men look a bit insignificant and where is that guy who is about to break Connors' record for number of weeks at number one, and most likely Sampras's slam count - he must be worth a picture surely? ;)
