Hey Lig, I was hoping that if you get some time within the next 5 days or so you would be able to make me an image. What I am looking for is something very similar to what allakhazam has on their site so I copied that image and put it on our site for right now. So here is what I see being required for it. Background image that is somewhere around 1600x100 in size. This will insure the same look on a 21" monitor. What I want from the background image is something that looks like a jungle, so of course I'm thinking of a screenshot from the first jungle in kazahm. In particular the waterfall that is there and the area around it. To get this image to 1600 width it can't be just a normal screen shot; what we are going to want to do is make a panoramic view of the area. I think the easiest way to do this would be for me to get you a screenshot of the background exactlly how I want it.
Ok, so we have the background now. Next step is some layers. This is where I am hoping you will be able to help me out a whole lot because I don't have as nearly as good an eye for design as you do. What I am thinking is that in the upper left corner we could have me and guen standing there kind of like how they have the elf and the hume. I'm not sure about this exactlly; I don't want the site to look too close to alla's site so maybe I shouldn't have us there. Next over on alla's pic is some text. We def will need some text telling who we are. In lardge text I want Bregan D'aerthe and then in small text 'A linkshell on Diablos server'. Now the color scheme here might be a bit difficult. Because of the jungle environment we are going to have a lot of dark greens probably. So the text prob can't be too dark I'd imagine. I was thinking possibly a light purpleish color (purple is a color I associate with the guild Bregan D'aerthe in AD&D).
So we get that text up in a really cool font and then we get what I would deem as extras. I would like to see pictures layed over the background. Maybe a goblin or something, or even a sword and shield. I really don't know. To see examples of this you should save the alla image on our site now and reduce the size so that you can see the intire thing. On this picutre the two chocobos were added in after and so was the tree person. I'd like just a couple of things that would look nice like this.
Lastly where that tree guy is in the image, I want something neat. This is gonna basically be an easter egg, it should look cool and maybe be a little funny. Maybe bmow showing off his knee caps, idk ^^ basically no one will see this unless they have 1600 res setup so have some fun here and make something cool.
What do you think? Is this something you might be able to take on? The issue is that this project will be due in my class a week from tomorrow so we will need to bust our butts on it to get it done. It doesnt need to be perfect by then but I need to be able to present the site to class.
