Forums: Index > Watercooler > Time for a new Background/Color Scheme: Admins Please Read

Okay guys, so the talk of a new background and color scheme has been circling more and more, and I myself think it is time to create something new. So here is my idea... you tell me what you think of it. Admins: We each come up with an idea we think would be best. Personally, I feel the translucent background is a bad idea, and we should steer clear from it. I've had many editor's complain about it (including myself). So... in this forum.. give us your ideas.
BACKGROUND IDEA:
COLOR SCHEME IDEA:
ANY OTHER ELEMENT ON THE MAIN PAGE YOU'D LIKE TO SEE:

Once all the admin's have put in their idea's, I will contact User:XD1 and have him create a cool new background for each idea.

Then we can create a blog with each screencap/picture of each Admin's idea...and let users vote on which they like best. The winning background/theme will then be changed. QueenBuffy 22:49, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

I would personally vote for this spiffy image of Winterfell burning after the Sack of Winterfell:

It tonally matches the action of A Storm of Swords, in that you realize "Winterfell has fallen, been sacked and burned. The sh*t is really hitting the fan". --The Dragon Demands 22:55, June 4, 2012 (UTC)

QueenBuffy's Idea
BACKGROUND IDEA: Have the Stark Banner on the left. Have the Lannister Banner on the right, with a solid background- sorta like this one here NO Translucent background.
COLOR SCHEME IDEA: Something neutral that goes with both banners- maybe light tones- I use XD1's judgement, and can always put input in after I see what he comes up with.
ANY OTHER ELEMENT: Having the Newsfeed on the main page, so we always get current news of GoT.
