Admin Announcement A new background for BigFooty (let's try this again)

[Chief]

Tired of the grey, we're looking for a new background for the BigFooty.com forums.

I've put in a temporary image, of which you can see a sliver on the right there.

Do you have a picture you took, maybe of packed stands at a Grand Final or a crystal clear close-up of players mid-flight? We want to see it!

If you are kind enough to allow us to use it as our background image, your name will be hallowed through the ages. You will be showered with earthly riches and heavenly blessings!

Or maybe you will receive a great medal and a free Platinum BFSC membership!


Let's see what you've got, folk of BigFooty!

Everton did you take the aerial shot?

Everton did you take the aerial shot?

And if so, what seat were you in? I think I will avoid that seating block,

 

[Kcrack]

I like it but it needs to be higher quality.

Getting there - we could probably amp up the green of the grass a bit but that's on the right track.

Imo you should just switch the colours around so it isn't just grey and white. find some cool colours play with the contrast so it's still user friendly and there will be a bit more character, add whichever background photo you like behind that and it will look great.

 

[Dan]

That's the only two I have.

Weren't we gonna go back to the old BigFooty colours.....

If I could choose I would want footy park, not the MCG.

It isn't too difficult to put a basic palette into the theme. Right now we're looking for a great photo then we'll play around with colours after the GF I think.

Would love to see your photos if you have some.

None of your business!

He's trying to hide from an incoming ball.
High balls and Harry O don't go well together.

Took it after the Richmond / Power game in Round 23.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Ones I took.
These 2 are the only ones with an Arena Name in the background.

Arden Street:

Generic Blundstone Arena pic, no teams. Low Res.

Too team centric but I always liked this pic.

Probably got some more on my computer somewhere that I didnt upload because there were no players in them, ill have a look.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Got a few others lieing around.

Only other grounds pics I have are Carltons ground on an old phone somewhere when I went for a NAB game.

Prototype....

Wait until Saturday week and put up a shot of the Premiers all on the dias with the cup, or the best GF shot someone on here puts up?

No harm in having a number of shots and rotating them.

Or maybe the ability to select your background image? Maybe have one team specific per club and a few generic stadium shots?
