Latest revision as of 03:34, 30 June 2014

Logo for The Realm of Sleep Forum Archives. I decided to go KH3D and go for a slight magenta/pink accent.
Forums: Index > The Realm of Sleep > Christmas Theme

TerraTalk2.png
Eternal Nothingness XIII - Terra Master Symbol.png I'm not afraid of what the darkness holds now. Even if you do wrest control of my heart from me, even if you cast me into the deepest, darkest abyss, you'll never sway me from the one cause that pushes me to keep on fighting. Whatever the cost, I'm ready to pay it.

Earthshaker Keychain KHBBS.png Since we've decided (I think) to do a Christmas theme, might I suggest the following :
  • Green Monaco (what is now red, or a blend of both colors)
  • Change Logo to have Donald, Goofy, Sora, and Jack Skellington's Christmas Form
  • Perhaps featured Image be Santa Claus or Halloween Town (KH2)
  • Featured Article be either Santa or the Reindeer
  • Perhaps decorate home page w/ holly berry images in the corners
  • Change "Mission Board" to "Santa's List"
  • Change Welcome Template Message to "Welcome to Chirstmas Town" and image could be : [1]

Those are all my ideas for now... I'll post more if I think of them. What about you guys? Have any?

Firaga44 - Dissidia is awesome!
TALK - I'll be playing crisis core over there*points to a corner*.
i like the santa's list and holly berry ideas

I like the idea. We should definitely have a Christmas Theme. I don't have any ideas right now, but if I get one I'll post it here.
Symbol Character - Mickey.png
FA icon.png I was telling DTN and Yer Mom about a BG. I found an image for Christmas Town (the welcome symbol across a blue sky and Christmas Lights - I think it was a scan or summat) - I'll get Xiggie to do Monaco.css.

Also see File talk:Wiki.png - I'm thinking of grabbing the Christmas Town forms and making it a logo, similar to the Days logo. But a GIF - because I'm thinking of throwing in some glittery snowflakes. ^_^

AND PLEASE, NO HOLLY BERRIES - red is overrated already. It's time to get back to blue. And silver. The snow needs a lot more emphasis.

Keyblade-Blk.png Why can't the background just be a green and red checkered version of what I have up now?

Also, we have these if necessary.

DarkestofHearts - We may both be different, but that doesn't mean we're the same.
TALK - Look at me,Roxas. Who do you see?
I'm out of ideas, but maybe most of the quotes of the moment should be from Santa Claus.

As for quotes, why not Santa Claus + Jack + Sally + whatever happens in the Christmas episode ?

@ENX : What's your plan for a logo ? I hope it's in the style of this current one. I seriously do. ^_^

If you wanted a more "generic holiday" theme, blue and silver would actually be quite appropriate, since those are the traditional colors that represent Hanukkah.

Considering the actual game has a Christmas Town in it, however, I don't think green and red would be inappropriate in the least.
