Here's a proposed NGA logo for the front page:

If the new logo is adopted, here's a favicon to make our current one more in line with the new logo:

The font used is FjallaOne, the same as the front page title. I release this logo under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license, so you can use it for anything and everything as long as you credit me. I'm always available if you need edits to the logo or you need to consult on graphic design.

Comments and criticism appreciated.

Well done, but now we need to know what NGA Mana does.

That looks awesome! :thumbsup: The favicon seems a little small, but that may just be my eyes tricking me into thinking the images on my browser tabs are bigger than it.

And so people say to me, "How do I know if a word is real?" You know, anyone who's read a children's book knows that love makes things real. If you love a word, use it! That makes it real. Being in the dictionary is an artificial distinction; it doesn't make the word any more real than any other word. If you love a word, it becomes real.

Where should the logos even go? Anyone good with photoshop who could do a few mock-ups of the index and front page to utilize them?

Will do!

Here's the very most basic possibility with favicons added and the logo changed. I think we should also start getting people to submit art or collecting art so we can try and get some kind of background going and then change the style to fit it better maybe?

I use the subsilver forum thingy so I dunno if I should shop the logos into a thing of the forums or not. It would be nice to update the forum styles next.

These look really slick, CKY. Really, really nice and simple design work.

Lily, can you try a mock up with one of Lunar Mystic's landscapes used in NGA Constructed as the background, just to see how it looks?

I bet you guys thought I would never finish this. Well don't you look silly now.

Here's what it looks like with the background in. It tiles it right now but that can easily be changed to whatever you guys think looks the best.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v315/ ... teaser.jpg

Here's the background by itself so you can mess with it if needed

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v315/ ... nd%201.jpg

I think it looks good considering the size of the arts I had to work with (at least they were all amazing)

Here's the css edited with transparent thingies in case the mods are feeling lazy:

I couldn't figure out how to put in the logos and stuff so that may have just been in another part of the code firefox didn't download or something.

Also I meant to post this in the front page thread.

Nice! Kind of a CKY and LM Greatest Hits background.

I do hope we can get LM to just upload actual large files of his artwork somewhere. I mean it's super detailed stuff. I think it would be cool (and pretty trivially easy really) to have the site spit out a random one of his landscapes as the background. This is nice though.

Yes when he does I can make something much nicer.

What if each type of article had a different one of his landscapes for backgrounds?

That would be pretty amazing. He's probably done enough by now.

Though obviously it wouldn't have to be restricted just to his work.
