We Need a New Banner!

[Christuserloeser]

Just an idea...






What about mascot banners that change with each time the page loads?

I like this idea of yours... !

[Melf]

Uploaded the new version of the banner.

[synbiosfan]

It looks great!

[puddingdragon]

Dang Coop you're making some ridiculously good looking banners.

[sheath]

Uploaded the new version of the banner.

I was hoping that would help. It looks like the colors don't match the background color for the menu box for some reason. There is a slight line to the top right of the banner that shouldn't be there. Is there a slight gradient to a darker color in the background there? Firebug isn't showing me the full style sheet.

Damn this is too many nice banners. I'm overstimulated.

Sega Font:

Forum Header:

I can make the - between Sega and 16 look like a dash instead of an equals sign too, I assume we wanted the logo as is though.

Forum header with stripes:

Perhaps for the the banner can alternate between a few. Whenever the striped one shows it has an animated striped box era sprite and a bunch of other striped era sprites in it, same goes for the grid era.
Or it can cycle through characters from 1989 - 1995 with the appropriate background. Just make sure to give some Sega CD games screen time.

Kinda like this for the striped era but made with you guy's pro skills.

I just moved the grid background a bit to the left so it wouldn't interfere with the Menu. It's the same link as the last one I posted, but it will have to be re-uploaded to the server here.

If you all like the overall look of it I'm sure Coop and I can coordinate getting at least one animated sprite in there for now. Having a random image for each click up there may be dependent on whether the forum software lets you put scripts in that block.

It does. Other sites using vBulletin do it, so it's more of a thing with how easily it's implemented, as opposed to it being able to be done.

And thanks for the compliments, guys. If Melf can figure it out and get it working, I have several more ideas in mind with Vectorman, Ristar, Alex Kidd, Opa Opa, and a few others that were requested.

If it allows scripts I have a free one that is very light on the resources that will cycle with each new page load. I used to use it before I switched to a dynamic database driven web site design.

It has been a while, but it should only require the following to be placed within the header block or in the admin section appropriately:

<TABLE align="top-left">
<TR>
<TD align="top-left"> <SCRIPT language="Javascript"><!--
function image() { };
image = new image();
number = 0;
// imageArray
image[number++] = "<img src='correct image link here' border='0' width='773' height='67'>"
image[number++] = "<img src='correct image link here' border='0' width='773' height='67'>"
image[number++] = "add more images until you die"
increment = Math.floor(Math.random() * number); document.write(image[increment]);
//-->
</SCRIPT> <P align="top-left"> </TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>

New banner looks great. Maybe it ends a bit abruptly though. Could be even longer or have it's background fade into the other one.

[Guntz]

Coop, I request a sprite of Garfield (from Garfield: Caught in the Act) looking around or something. Maybe doing that dance thing he does too.

Also, Sheath's multi-character banner looks epic up on top! Very awesome indeed, though perhaps it's a little... Umm, cluttered, for lack of a better word. Maybe my resolution is a bit too big, but it's a bit hard to see some of the characters.

I love the new banner! Who made it?

[Txai]

It looks like the colors don't match the background color for the menu box for some reason. There is a slight line to the top right of the banner that shouldn't be there.

Fixed, I guess:



Here's an example of how it might look like if re-uploaded:

[FlackoWeasel]

This gave me idea. what if every time you load SEGA-16, you get different banner?

[Guntz]

Hate to break it to you, but The Coop already suggested that early on in this thread. It is still an excellent idea though. Thanks for keeping it alive Flacko.

Praise Raul and the Flacko Knights for Great Justice.
