Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) This is just a place to compile/show off stuff for now. I hope to do a bit of expanding later, with forum icons available for people to use and things like that and possibly requests. Due to my triggers, if you want to include any picture of your own in a post here, please link to it instead of having the image visible in the post - thanks! credits: The header image was a manip of a dragon picture - The Celestial Dragon by Kenny Louie, which was licensed CC BY 2.0 Edited August 17, 2014 by diaveborn Share this post Link to post
Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) First are the "recently released" banners I've been making for the New Sprite General/Miscellaneous Discussion thread: (neither one above made it to the thread because I spent too long trying to figure out which text version out of a handful of options would work best (oops)) Here's some stuff I've made specifically for people to use in threads on the dc forums: Here's some stuff I've just played around with. I used placeholder text to get a feel for what I'd do if I were making it for someone's real thread (for example a lineage project where the name of the lineage would go on the banner): Edited August 3, 2014 by diaveborn Share this post Link to post

Posted August 3, 2014 Thanks Shelybear --- I just added the latest two "recently released" banners. I just LOVE the color of that green egg! So emeraldy! Random thoughts: For quite a while I've been needing to get some more fonts as I've had a lot of trouble finding ones that are really crisp at smaller sizes. I know where to get more pixel fonts and just haven't yet, but I don't know where to get non-blocky, cursive / script / stylized fonts that look good small and Googling hasn't helped so far. I might have to start tracing with the pencil tool if I want to go small 'cause putting the normal letters next to pixel art highlights the fuzziness to me. Alllso I *might* start opening up requests soon. Not sure if I'd want to do stuff like what I have up, or non-DC wallpapers or both. Due to energy limitations I'd probably have pretty limited slots, and I'd want payment in dragons but if I did wallpapers the first couple would be free so I could have some examples to put up.
