I was bored this evening, and thought perahps with new admins should come a new look for the server banner.

Opinions? Critiques?

I'm open to changing it, I only spent 15 minutes formatting it and putting it together.

dareja, your links are broken
EDIT: nvrmnd, took down your post

I like it bigmack, it looks a little too plain for my taste, but there is always hope for v.2

lol, tried to match the BGColor of BF2s...plus it was made with Jasc Paint Shop Pro, so I can't go all out. XD
Lets see what you can do.

The font has to go, and it's kinda plain looking. It's plain but not simple. If it's simple but with a minimal amount of stuff on it, then plain works. Also, when that image gets shrunk down for the banner, the font won't work at all. (I'm assuming this is for the image from when you are connecting to the server?) If that's the case, you won't need to put all the IPs in, we can just put them in the server welcome message to the left of the banner.

This could turn out really great! For size reference, here is the current image:

honestly, i really like the current one, maybe just add the IP and bf2s.com to it and it would look really classy

Ooooooo, I like that. Maybe expand the logo so it goes to the bottom, or center it, and a slightly darker background? Nice work though.

That BGColor is an exact match to the BF2s text, I was trying to keep within stylistic colors of the site.

And do you mean the BF2s logo being centered?

Put some breasts in there, and it's golden.

Yes the BF2s logo centered top to bottom.

And the color with all that other dark looks really light, maybe its just me.

I tried what you said Flaming, but I just didn't like the look. I did some minor re-arranging and now I think this is the best I can make it.

you can't change the background (beige) to the color under the bf2s logo? (greyish) It would look better than the color of the text (same as background)
