I am in the process of merging the Rio Receiver board into the empeg board to help consolidate things, and realised one thing. Both boards have their own header graphic.
Anyone willing to design a new one, incorporating both boards into one?

I am guessing the Rio Central board will follow along also?

How's this? may be a little cluttered, I had an idea for perhaps spacing it out, but I kinda like it.

Howabout having the icons overlap the text a bit. You could fit them all in better that way.

Why not throw in some little musical notes sorta like "pieces of flair" for the logo. Anybody get the movie reference?

It would be cool to stress the "empeg" aspect of the forums and less so "Rio". This reinforces the unofficial status, and also more accurately defines the relationship between the products that we discuss here (including Karma).

Can we try and end up with one that takes up no more vertical space than the current one? You don't get much screen on those frontpath things...

Just one nitpick, make 'the unofficial" the same size and vertical position as 'bbs' and you've got my vote! It looks great!

Mmmm very nice.
I think it'd be near perfect if the Rio logo could be deemphasized some.. it's still the first thing my eyes are drawn to.

Cool. One nitpick though... the empeg at the top of the empeg car and rio car list seems redundant... don't you guys think?

Now if you could just make it transparent for those of us that don't use the default colour scheme...

Whoa, there people!
Lets not forget, these are just samples.
I'm sure the final would be transparent and names can be changed as well as the colors in the logos.
I simply came up with an example of what Drakino had asked for.

Wow!! it really looks nice, that's some piece of art.
Only, one point though. I can hardly see the RIO name, and I think it would look nicer if it glows a little bit more. And I will have to put my sunglasses on to look at it

More to the point I don't want this to turn into some Rio forum. This is an empeg community and that's something we should try to hold on to.

I'll not have knight's of the realm (lower case), criticised on this board.
What do you think the conversation goes like, when she's resisting the temptation to run him through with the sword, instead of touching him on the shoulder with it: "The only reason you're getting this, mr.gates, is we'd like you to look at our web site, it's crap - now rise".

Absolutely! The Karma General forum is an example of what we (Empeg folk) do not want the rest of the BBS to be like..

Dang, I just had a look over at Riovolution tonight and you are correct, sir!
It looks like half the board is populated with inane file taxi discussions!
I think we need to post a guard at the entrance to this BBS.
