Troll Thumping Day Suite anyone?

Sunday, November 18, 2007 by ZubaZ | Discussion: Community

Those of you who are new might not be aware of a unique WC holiday: Troll Thumping Day!

Is anyone interested in expanding the work Po' Smedley has done into a full Suite?

    Nice one, Skinhit   Looking at the picture on the right, Po' does not really look that tall. He could well be a descendant of a Troll. I just wonder if he really is a Troll and has infiltrated this work group in order to further the Troll Nations cause. A kinda of double agent. Makes you wonder

You were at the Docks again, I'm sure.


Nope, I was on guard duty and vigilant, but that sneaky turtle has the best disguises and would even get past his mother, I'm sure.

A thought occurred to me today, after looking at the wallpapers (Po's) for the Dragon and Flame WBs. I need to make the logon backgrounds different from each other as well!

The rough wood works well with the "Order Of The Stump", so I'll leave that as it is. This is a draft for the "Order Of The Black Dragon"



Do the ratty books and misc. seem out of place on this background? The Idea is, the Dragon and Flame orders are more polished and refined than the Stump order and I want to reflect this in the logons.

I hope you don't hate it as I spent all damn day trying to get the wood grain right

The more I look at it, the more I hate it


Maybe I should scrap it.



Note to self: It's weird to quote oneself

Slow down there 2of3, first thing to remember, we are our own worst critics. I think it looks good, but then I'm not one of the folks that you are working with to be this together. Reserve judgement until they come along.

However.......

HI Tim ... I think the 2nd one is a lot better, mate ... and the background does not distract from your logon at all ..


One thing I did notice , was your 'Famous Thumpers' book ... what would it look like if it was a bit more horizontal ..but not quite horizontal ... I hope that makes sense ..

~ apart from that .. It IS a lot better then the first ...

A rotation of 25-40 degrees cw should do it, maybe!


I have everything saved in layers here (geez, 12 layers), so moving the bits around is no problem


How's the "Stumpy" sidebar coming along?

Po' have you designed the throbber, or is Bichur in charge of that?

Ok .. presenting the First ( of what will be many ! ) Screenies of the STUMPY SIDEBAR ..

Remember that this is the first incarnation ...and it still need a load of work on it ...

~ also , with it being a 'LIGHTER' Sidebar , also gives me a lot more options to play with too

I have put Po's Captions in ,with mirrors on hover .. ,

the ROUGH wood background,and the TROLL Clock , which I grabbed from an earlier post by Po'..and edited in Paint.Net .. I am not too sure about this one,yet ...

The captions , as seen here ,in detail, are set up thus :

OPEN PANEL : Black on Wood
OPEN PANEL HOVER : Gold on Wood
CLOSED PANEL : Green on Wood
CLOSED PANEL HOVER : Gold on Wood

The main reason why I have put a few different Captions in to start with is so I could
see which ones work the best ..when placed up on the Rough Wood Background ..

As It looks at the moment , I think I will be 'veering' towards the Black on Wood Captionswith the Gold Edges ..

The other coloured Captions can be used in the STACK PANEL, which is like an Extension to the Sidebar , and allows the DS user to add extra Panels .. but more about that later ....

Anyway see what you think ... here you go ..
