Aspiring Web Designers

Post by Mystiana »

Hello kitties,

As you may have noticed, mithrapride.org has had the same look for many years. I want to keep the colors (though it could use more options), but needs a fresh look for our relaunch. If any of you are interested in trying your paw at index, please post here. I would like to start as soon as possible, but will give a few days to collect responses.

If you can't design, but have ideas what should be on index, or the site, please post as well. :)

Thanks ^^

Probably a good idea, although I did like the cover pages old logo much better lol.
Also, how did you change your user name? Wouldn't mind changing mine since I havent used Isania for more than an AH mule since Cactuar FFXI but I dont want to create an new account. :lol:

As for suggestions, maybe an Eorzea clock/calender and updated links. One link suggest I'd make is http://www.disciplesoftheland.com/Forum.aspx for all your gathering needs. For shopping http://www.ffxivpro.com/bazaar is now up and running (needs word spread to be good)(same as FFXIAH). Other good links for looking up items are http://db.ffxivarchives.com/ or http://ffxiv.yg.com/

For a name change I believe the correct person to talk to is Tirial, Isania. Message her and she should be able to fix that up for you!

Depends on what year/generation Eclipse :o I only know how to specialize in the first and second generation.....we just derailed the thread.

Sorry about the thread derail :rofl: .

I was mostly joking anyhow as you are on the opposite side of the country from me.

It is a 98 Eclipse GS that I picked up specifically to tinker with. Unfortunately I am coming to the realization I may have screwed up by not buying the turbo model since a Turbo is what I really wanted, so I may have to sell it and start over. :(

I am not saying I want a job or anything, but I took Animation and Graphic Design in college, so I would be happy with making some banners, and giving the logo a face lift. I will throw some stuff together, and upload via megaupload in a rar file. If ya' like what you see use it, if not I wont be hurt or anything :P

Is that a slightly edited Yoshitaka Amano graphic, or original design?

(It really is Amano's style.)

Original Amano design, with some tweaks (ears tail and bell) did that to show "something" quick, it may take a few days to get some good art out of me :P

I would love to see some artwork of Miqo'te we could use, in the Amano style would be even better. That's a good start, though. Are we allowed to use it?

I took graphic design, and as far as I know yes we can use edited/unedited Amono art, as no one is making money off it. I have about three sketches done now, I will clean them up and post them soon (these are original in the Amono style). Man college is taking so much of my free time... /cry I wish I had more...
