I’m making new theme for ETF2L and need some feedback from the community.
Occasionally I will post here some screenshot with some comment.

Screenshots are in further posts

Looks really nice and clean, but I think the contrast between the white background and the very dark panels, might be a tad too high. It could fuck your eyes up after a while. I’d suggest either making the panels sligthly lighter, or the background slightly darker(light blue?).

it’s already looking better than the site at the moment
one thing that bugs me though is how far down the page you have to scroll before the content starts

on my monitor, about half of the space on the screen I see isn’t what I came to the site to see

Background will be probably different (an image), but we need designer for that.

Yeah, but sponsors need to be visible on the first page so either this or sidebar where will be already one google ad.

I understand the sponsors taking up loads of space, but does the ETF2L logo really need to be that big?

Maybe we could go with small logo on navbar, but I think that the rest would rather stay with header (also need graphic designer for that)

What about combining the headers so the ETF2L logo is near the left and scrolling the sponsors is to the right? This would push the content up a little more.

Yeah, that might work, or we might just put ETF2L logo in the scrollable area.
Quick sketch

Ahhh you did this while I was doing mine :D

I did a quick mockup for the forum view: http://box.jisko.net/i/d2923b29.png , making it slightly more condensed.

I’d also say that both the etf2l header and the sponsor slider take up far too much space. If it was the frontpage, okay, but especially on subpages I’d like to see them more condensed or combined into one.

Slate gave me backgrounds from his previous design

I’d go with first with blue on both sides, can someone make something like that?

Pagination grows up to 10 buttons so search bar must go somewhere else, and that’s why I wanted to move it to breadcrumbs instead.

Way too dark

Yeah Slate said that too, maybe we could go with dots like on Steam background http://i.imgur.com/y90urra.png, but lighter.

Uhhh… sexy… I like it :)

Just one thing, it seems too bulky in some aspects, as in, some/all headers are too thick and don’t really draw themselves apart from the rest of the table because the colors are too similar, some lines also seem very bulky, overall I like it but this is my biggest problem with it.

I also have to say I dont really like the organization of the player page. It doesn’t seem quite the same, I think many of the tables could be a lot more compressed, specifically the teams table.

ALso I like much more the second version with the sponsors on the right side of the logo

ps: nice team page :p
