Not sure where you got that from.

But if we are to change it, then it better be perfect. And if you didnt know, yet, I am rather picky when it comes to presenting stuffs to the public.


As for the general theme, I would prefer standard Warcraft 3 images/icons like the last two. The Lich King/toxic green font combination is not necessarily something I would associate with ENT.

Well trying to balance the pickiness of our lord arty and the rest of the community is a bit challenging but I'd also like to add that our current banner has been up for ages. It's old and just lacks something fresh. I don't add background images or simple fonts because the community is juggling between simplicity and complexity.

So tell me - What do you guys wanna see?

It was a guess XD. I understand your reasons for being picky though.


There aren't a lot of images out there that are original blizzard artwork. And it's pretty much a dead game. Thats why I liked the last pic I tried, thought it worked well.

Without delving into fan art relating to dota 2 / WOW , there is a chance that we will continue with the current banner.

As I said.. Warcraft 3 images like the ones we saw on page 1 or on the wiki (http://wiki.entgaming.net/index.php?tit ... y_2016.png, http://wiki.entgaming.net/index.php?tit ... Header.jpg) and just "ENT Gaming" or the same slogan we currently have.

Not too many words, no weird fonts and colors. Keep it basic, simple, well read-able and overall usable on different layouts/backgrounds.

Again I feel like my point in all of this was missed. So now I'm going to shift to an even simpler idea and hopefully it gets my point across.

My whole concern in this was just something fresh for ENT. Having banners, images, backgrounds was the wrong approach so why not this one?

Not sure I understand how changing the font for "enterprise" travels us from 2012 to 2017, can you develop? Anyway, from the image you linked, I definitely prefer the current one.

I guess you missed the point in that simple image as-well, then.

The point of having a picture is stopping to rely on purely font/text. Besides, the 1998 Warcraft 3 is still the same 2017 Warcraft 3. Whether we use an orc or night elve is merely a question of how we define ENT.

Having said that, I never ruled out to remove/adjust the background color and/or use a full-sized background.

Then it'd be appreciated to have some specs.. like a canvas size, for starters. I don't want to make something and have it be too big or too small.

To be more specific - How big is the size of a full-sized background? If I can get a proper size then it would make life a lot easier in this matter.

Believe Chromes inspect feature may help with figuring out the canvas size and such that you seek.

If you hit F12 it'll bring up "Inspection", and in the side bar that appears on the top left there is a button to "Select an element in the page to inspect it", however, if you hover over the element itself it will tell you the size in pixels.

Hopefully that helps, and if it doesn't you can definitely ignore me :)

For some reason I can't see pictures on forum. Probably apply for attachments and for url/img from internet. All what I can see is text "Image".

@efko

I'd like you to try something for me

When you see "image" right click the message and click "open in new tab" or "view image".

If you're on chrome, you will be prompted by a security page, and after clicking "advanced" you can proceed to the site. After, reload the main page and hopefully all images should load in the future.

If you're on firefox, you will be prompted by a security page, and after clicking "advanced" you will be given an option to "Add Exception..." click this and click "Confirm Security Exception". After images should load properly.

Hopefully that helps
