Ok, I didn't like the logo on the startpage of GFXVoid so I thought, Why don't make my own logo? Or my own enter screen?

This is how far it is now, I've the basics. I only have to add the details and text.

http://img99.echo.cx/img99/9054/welc...gfxvoid8kc.jpg

The lowest banner(??) is ment to have the text Enter GFXVoid on it.
And the empty places, maybe a render, or some text or brushing?

And maybe you think something like "Aaargh Pleymo is crazy!!"
But could we use this, or an edit or something else as the enter page?

Comments and ideas are welcome :)

It has to be a small box, in the middle of the screen :)
I will finish it now or maybe tomorrow, I will post my final result :)

Wow, I really like that wave effect. I'd use that in the tables for sure - that looks great man.

I may be confused, but what exactly is it for?

It has to be the enter screen.
I will fill this box up with maybe some brushing, or a simple plain render.
I also will add the text "Enter GFXVoid" somewhere, I think in the lower left corner or in the lowest banner(??)

I already have added some thing(the stats, beneath the tree) and a render, I'm not sure about it....
Maybe I will post it tonight or tomoorow

So this take the place of the logo, the tree

For no i'm going to leave the welcome screen simple becuase its going to go bye bye soon anyways. I do want to use that effect for blocks (once the site is completed) though.

very nice, is it done in vector? I love the effect you have on it. Great job. Would probably be better for tables and stuff. The line under the top part doesnt need to be there though.

Sounds n00bisch, but what do you mean with is it done with a vector?
I made it in photoshope with selection, some copy paste, and I used the pentool for the shapes.

Here is the edit:
Not finished yet, but it's getting better and better :) ( I guess :P )

Nice. I personally dont like the render, I'm debating on the wave effect at the top. I could go either way on it. Your font is blurry in some areas, maybe try not anti-aliasing it or not makin it bold.

lol, its got the obligatory silhouette of a girl :D

Personaly I'm not happy with the graduated curved lines prefered it when it was a solid, the text needs antialising, and the 'Enter' text is not clear.

But overall mate it rocks.

I saw it, already fixed:
The text was on Sharp, now on None

http://img169.echo.cx/img169/1205/we...gfxvoid5oo.jpg

So now I've to make the upper wave 1 solid color and make the enter text clear?

EDIT:

Nopw it looks a bit plain? But I've an idea :D

hehe, thats just my opinion mate. personaly I dont like the layers of waves, but that is only my opinion, see what everyone else says first :D

The GFXVOID text looks like it needs antialising or something, its looks jaggered.

damn, maybe you should try and do something for my site, yours looks soo clean.

[edit] i reckon you have got antialising on, just the angles with so narrow a text makes it look jaggard, not sure how to fix something like that other than dont go for something as tall [/edit]

Yea, i don't like it either. Also he's right, the enter text is a li'l blurry as well.

Ok guys, this is my last edit for tonight, because I've to go to sleep!

http://img259.echo.cx/img259/8725/we...gfxvoid6yn.jpg

This is what I got now. The waves in the upper wave are just quick ones, they're not so clear as in another site im making with 2-intenze(maybe i can copy them, they're really smooth!)

What do I've to edit on this one? The text? And more idea are welcome!
I want that this one is going to be perfect, I want him as enterscreen :') :P

I like the simple, solid one the most. Very unique concept mate, I enjoy it a lot.

Personally I Like the ones with teh siloulettes *spelling?* TacoX You should use it for the home page *www.gfxvoid.com* Would be real nice. You gus should make a tutorial on vectors...
05-23-2005, 04:26 PM
MetalSkin

he didn't use Vectors Tenchido, he just cut em out, I presume using the select tool. I've seen quite a few tuts on how to do that.

But personaly thats not how I do it as you can't change it once you have done it, I normaly make custom shapes from paths so that I can change em if I wish.

The most recent looks good mate, the text is looking a lot better. still prefer the orig single colour for the wavey inside bit though :D

btw, dont let the bed bugs bite :P

That's not true...I only used the same colors from a screenshot, and I took the same size. But I made everything myzelf! With linetool, pentool, gradient tool and much more. I didn't copy/paste ANYTHING, only the colors...

But what is de different between vectoring and making shapes with selecting tool and path tool?

EDIT: I think this is one of my final versions. Maybe some ideas to make it perfect?

http://img241.echo.cx/img241/7695/we...gfxvoid7as.jpg

Could we use this version or an edit as the enterscreen? Bacause I really don't like the tree :P

it's ok, but not right for an enter screen. I'm sorry but that doesnt look like a splash at all. :P. also, metal didnt say you cut and pasted stuff, he said you just cut it out which is what you did.

Okey, but what has to look like a splash?
05-24-2005, 11:14 AM

I'm not sure why but im not keen on that idea, we just need something basic, like use my logo in middle with glow and have a bit of text underneath. None of this is really needed.

Meah. I love it. Not sure it would work as a splash... Maybe take out the top and bottom bars? Then it would look like one. But i really do like it.. looks alot like the default GFXvoid skin.

robgasm

yeah... splash pages are just a logo really... centered in the page with a link

Heh, looks really good. One thing though is the middle text is still kind of hard to read. Might just be my resolution, but it's a little small.

yeah the tree might change soon anyway when the get the portal up...when they get the portal up
