Mister Phes Posted February 7, 2020 Greetings! I've been informed @Kai NRG has created a custom banner (below) for the Brethren of the Brick Seas Forums - is this correct? I'm in the process of applying the banner to the forum but there are a couple of things preventing that from happening. The first is the banner does not have the correct image dimensions for the forum header. So I was wondering if we could create the banner in different sizes?

Captain Dee Posted February 9, 2020 This new banner looks great. The mobile "portrait" view for me is of the right half of the fleur-de-lis over to the left half of the crossed cannons -- basically a sharply dressed redcoat and a scarred up bluecoat who clearly doesn't know how to handle a gun... But the "landscape" view shows almost everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomSkippy Posted February 10, 2020 Amazing work! Professional, exciting, fantastic!!! Gotta say, Sea Rats and Eslandola minifigs are putting the oleander/corries to shame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose for any banner to show all 4 factions in the default mobile view, the minifigs would have to be clustered in the center. Tilting the phone doesn't quite show the full banner -- both edges are cut off slightly for me, but it does show all 4 minifigs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is correct. Just so long as the title is fully visible, the surrounding artifice is an acceptable loss. When using a mobile browser you have to accept you're viewing a simplified version of the design due to the smaller view port and if you want the full experience, then you have to use a desktop web browser. And that's applicable to all mobile web designs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was wondering about the dimensions in the first place, tbh, but just did as I was told. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted February 11, 2020 Just now, Kai NRG said: What size(s) do you need? Glad to reshape it. Just 1920 x 200, please. 1920 pixels is the standard width for 1080 HD displays at present. I don't think enough people are currently using higher resolutions to warrant larger dimensions. As for the mobile users... Providing the heading text is accommodated within the view port, they'll have to relinquish the minifigures and artwork. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
