Some input wanted!!

[Fiona Maccafferty]

Ok, guys. As you may or may not know, our board birthday is right around the corner (so is Maggie's, but that's a different thread). 

I would like a little input from all of you. 

-I have been making different skins for the holidays, please tell me what you liked/did not like for each one (colors, images, etc.) 
-If you could let me know which web browser you use (ie, Chrome, IE, etc.)
-If you'd like a new graphics set, see the form posted in this board. 
-Finally, everyone except Steve needs to PM me an Image or Gif of your char and a quote. This is for a top-secret operation, so secret, in fact, that only myself and my cat know. Just do it. By March 28th. I don't wanna have to hunt you down, but I will, and then the wrath of the Ginger will fall upon you. 
-Lastly, everyone (Steve too), PM me (or state below) what your chars' theme song(s) is/are. 


Thanks! 

Xoxo,

Cass

I prefer the basic skin without any hassle or things falling down, to be honest...

[Jason Conway]

Here's my two cents...

- I have been making different skins for the holidays, please tell me what you liked/did not like for each one (colors, images, etc.)
I like the color scheme we have now, but feel a new variant of it could be quite nice. Every skin you've made has worked really well, we still have them for the next Halloween/Valentines etc! The only thing I disliked is the falling images. It really slowed it down and I personally prefer them out of the way so I can read the text uninterrupted.

- If you could let me know which web browser you use (ie, Chrome, IE, etc.)
Always Chrome for me!

The last two points will be on there way as soon as I can, as I do have a couple of characters! I am very excited about this... not sure what you're planning but it sounds great!


IMG/QUOTE/THEME SONGS

Brigadier General Jason Conway
Quote, “Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.” ― Arthur C. Clarke.
Theme - I feel this is a hard choice, but in my head I imagine the music from the new Star Trek films (the credits music) whole the mind's camera zooms and swoops around the trees and spires of Meropis.
I feel this image sums up Conway so very, very well

Captain Dominic Evans
Quote, "Don't take this the wrong way, because it's great to hear from you. But, where the HELL are you guys?"
"Bad Company" by Five Finger Death Punch

Michael Black
Quote, "Rest, prepare, cry in the corner, do whatever it is you do before a mission, only make sure you do it quietly."
Theme Music for Michael Black - Most certainly the Atlantis theme tune, without a doubt.
A rare image he has allowed somebody to take...

Colonel Paul Riley
"I've already got a female to worry about. Her name is the Sun Tzu."
Theme music wise I tend to just link Riley and the Sun Tzu to the Atlantis theme tune in my head

Or this one if you'd like on that's different to his signature (http://m.cdn.blog.hu/ho/hogyvolt/image/SB%20S01/1x5-6/4.jpg)

First off, your skins have been pretty good, but I usually like not having the effects on when I'm trying to write or read posts so I turn them off.

I use Chrome mostly to do it but I also sometimes use firefox, depends on how the browsers have been behaving.

Quotes and pictures are for Cass only at the moment.

As for theme songs... I felt it wouldn't be bad if we shared?


Elly: Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygen II no lyrics and all that fancy stuff, but it helps me get into her head, otherwise is spacey sounding stuff.

Tom: Tom's at the moment, is kind not solid he has a list usually harder rock with some funny ones in their, probably most accurate theme song would be Age of Rage
by Corroded and that's a really hard distinction to make.

Ryan: Doesn't have one, his list is all electro, trance, dubstep, but to pick one... Imagine Dragons - Radioactive (Synchronice Remix)

I also tend to slip the SG-1 and Atlantis themes in there somewhere.

By basic, I assume you mean like the usual one, but do you prefer lighter, darker, or something in between? If you need examples, I can do that. 

Yeah, the falling things is only going to be for the four major holidays, I think. It's eating up a lot space on my computer for all the darned images. 

Thanks everyone so far!! Keep them coming! 

[John Callaghan]

No, like, the one that is standard.... It's fine as is. I just don't like all those falling images...

[Fiona Maccafferty]

Got it, thanks. Like I said, I am keeping the images for major holidays, but only on the main page so it shouldn't affect your posting, and Steve and I agreed it will only be for the 24 hours of said holiday, my time (PST-Party Stupid time! ) So, Christmas, Easter, New Years and US Thanksgiving (or this time, the board b-day). Mark your calendar!

[Jason Conway]

Tagging a few members have some input in this for you Cass :-)

darker the better IMO

Same with beer Duly noted, thanks!

[Fiona Maccafferty]

I still need images from the following people:

Zodd.
Roo (I have a few of Zooey from another RP if you'd rather)
Ali/Saku (or I can use your Avvies, since they're saved)
Erick/Ahrima
Joey
Jay
Ross
There's someone else I am missing, but I can't think who (besides myself, obvs), so if it's you, do it, please!!


If you'd rather me find images, I can, just know that they will be from Google and likely the first ones I stumble upon, so fair warning.

[Fiona Maccafferty]

I can't tell you on the public boards. Just kidding.

The image of your playby, however you invision that.

[Fiona Maccafferty]

Yeah, Achilles/Arson! Either/or, or both.

[Chicago "Roo" Eastlyn]

Yeah I vote no on the symbiote pics xD

[Fiona Maccafferty]

Aww, come on! Roo never lets me have any fun...

[Aear Charter]

I'll do it?
