He has been trying to find you on IRC for a while now. Lulz.

So far, so good!
The final touches I need to suggest:

* Is it possible to replace the purple and red banners with this image instead?
http://www.tomcleave.com/images/bc_banner_01.gif (Obviously also extending the light beams so they fade out more naturally)
* I really like the old sword with the markings. Is it not possible to create a repeating figure like that? This sword looks a bit cartoony. I think a lot of it has to do with the tip of the blade. The tip of Anduril looks much hotter.

yea i can put the script back, but when will you learn that images need to be transparent in order to be placed on top of other images? tongue.gif yea i can stick that on top of the banners but there will be a big black block there too

blink.gif It shouldn't be too hard to take out the black background from it. Just cut out everything except the solid lines and add a glow.

I could do this myself, but I was hoping there was something on photoshop to let that happen. If not, I *could* get it done myself.

LOL GOOD LUCK WITH THAT UR BAD

magic wand tool = NOOB

also if you use it on a gradient, watch what happens. it has a tolerance level based on color, which basically means IT DONT WORK ON GRADIENTS, and even on solid edges it usually leaves really choppy bits and white dots everywhere. dont use it EVER madeoface.gif

also i hate rendering, i did that entire sword and that was plenty for one week lol

And that was without the magic wand or quick selection tools. Infact, I did very little.

They are stretched horizontally, but I can fix that if Gene wants.

How is it that I manage to do what you say's impossible? hash.png

As for the markings on the blade... because the content sections of the page can be set to any height, I'd personally avoid adding that level detail to a repeating section because 4 out of 5 times it won't look right, especially factoring cross-compatibility between browsers.

Otherwise, I think that's all. Shall I make a start on it Gene?

Fucking awesome.
Do it.

Don't forget the scroll image.
It needs to be fairly large.
About this size:

Done, working on them now.

One last thing... the Monthly Highlights scroll HAS to be there, and some of the older years don't have any Leader's Choice... so um... can I pick them? wub.gif

Keanu I'm not updating the past months.
I'm applying the new thing to only recent albums.
But you can pick any single month from the past to use as a template.
I'll send you the rar file of the wg.com photos that George collected later on, and we can make the photo albums together. That's the hardest part of updating wg.com.
