Mr Man Posted February 25, 2012 I've just noticed it now. Very professional, my compliments to whomever it may concern. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brickmack Posted February 25, 2012 Just noticed it a few minutes ago, looks very nice. Good skin for Architecture Month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickadeer Posted February 25, 2012 I prefer the new forum skin as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Nihilus Posted February 25, 2012 It looks great, albeit a bit dark fr my tastes. I'll be fine with it, however, until the next one appears! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flipz Posted February 25, 2012 It looks great, albeit a bit dark fr my tastes. I'll be fine with it, however, until the next one appears! Agreed. Although, it took me a while to notice it, since I spend almost all my time in the Games forum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RPGer Posted February 25, 2012 Agreed. Although, it took me a while to notice it, since I spend almost all my time in the Games forum. You bet you do! ( Back on Topic) It does look really professional. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dviddy Posted February 25, 2012 This looks great. I know you guys like to change it up, but I can honestly say I think you should stick with this one and never let it go. This looks brilliant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
def Posted February 25, 2012 I really love the way the stars were rendered in the logo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Siegfried Posted February 26, 2012 It's a composite effort. Rufus Banner design. Brickthing EB logo Shadows General skin help and theming. This looks great. I know you guys like to change it up, but I can honestly say I think you should stick with this one and never let it go. This looks brilliant. It'll probably end up being used in "Special".

MetroiD Posted February 26, 2012 I'm especially fond of the EB logo; very inspired work on that, Brickthing! Rufus' general banner design is also extremely sleek and impressive; as has been, I'm sure, Sieggy's sweating in the Australian sun As to Shadows, well, we all know nothing is possible without Shadows anyway Seriously though, great job you guys. Thanks!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Cam Posted February 26, 2012 I love it as well, the reply buttons stick out and little, but the color matches other accents so it makes sense. Very well done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brickmack Posted February 26, 2012 It's a composite effort. Rufus Banner design. Brickthing EB logo Shadows General skin help and theming. It'll probably end up being used in "Special". Hmm. Never realized there were multiple people working on that, always figured we had one person designing all of that stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted February 27, 2012 Like I said in the Architecture Month topic, great work guys. Love the logo. Anyways, I found a minor problem. It doesn't bug me, but I thought I'd report it: If I go to a profile, the tabs next to 'About Me' ('Topics', 'Posts', and 'Gallery') have black text and a black background. The buttons are still there are clickable, but they appear invisible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Palathadric Posted February 27, 2012 Good work! The reply buttons are a little dark for my liking, but why nitpic as insignificant things like that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrickBox Posted February 27, 2012 If I go to a profile, the tabs next to 'About Me' ('Topics', 'Posts', and 'Gallery') have black text and a black background. The buttons are still there are clickable, but they appear invisible. I just noticed that too. It's a bit irritating, at first I thought the other tabs were gone. Only the currently selected tab is visible, the other three disappear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadows Posted February 28, 2012 I just noticed that too. It's a bit irritating, at first I thought the other tabs were gone. Only the currently selected tab is visible, the other three disappear. Never thought anyone used those tabs. I'll see what I can do. It'll probably end up being used in "Special". Yep. Added: I see the problem, IPB uses those bar settings in two places, one that on a light skin will end up the same, but on a dark skin, one ends up light and one dark. I've dealt with it, and then fixed the resulting disaster momentarily caused by their odd choice. TL;DR: FIXED! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't really use those tabs that often, but if I see a member with a few posts which border on spam but might not be, that tab is a little more convenient than using the Advanced Search to check other posts before I report, since I'm already on the member's profile page.

Masked Builder Posted February 28, 2012 Great new design you guys. I would love to see this one stick around. The logo with the brick and stars is fantastic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C3POwen Posted February 28, 2012 It's certainly very slick! It actually inspired me to put together an update to the LDD forum logo, so that it uses a font more like the one used in LDD itself (although not quite an exact match): Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Algernon Posted February 29, 2012 I do like the look of the new skin quite a bit. If I might make a suggestion for future updates: I think a "white" colored skin using the same basic design could work a little better, since LEGO doesn't really remind me of dark coloration as much as clean, soft colors. Mind you, this isn't bad, but I think a simple color palette swap could make it even better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nightshroud99 Posted February 29, 2012 Since there is a topic, I must commend you three for making such a professional and sleek banner. Even without the use of Minifigs this certainly has a LEGO feel to it; one that is more adult. Good job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superkalle Posted March 1, 2012 It's certainly very slick! It actually inspired me to put together an update to the LDD forum logo, so that it uses a font more like the one used in LDD itself (although not quite an exact match): Really nice! I'll take it! BTW: Could you try to nudge the whole block of text a bit up? The "Digital Designer" text is centered, but it makes the "and other digital tools" a bit too low. I'd like to see what it looks like if you move both pieces of text updwards a small bit (like 5 mm or so). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
