Looking for Collection Photos
« on: September 07, 2011, 03:30:08 pm »
Hey everyone,

I'm currently looking to redesign the homepage and turn it in to something more than a simple login screen. I'd love to incorporate some community pictures into the design. If you have any photos you think are front-page worthy, please post them here. The plan is to rotate through the photos as well as link them directly to your collection page as examples of what the site can do.

Thanks!
Matt

EDIT: Make sure photos are 1000px or greater in width.
EDIT 2: They also need to be landscape...
EDIT 3: The photos need to look pretty too :) (Scott will color correct them)
EDIT 4: They need to fit in this:

Oh this is a pretty sweet idea.  Email them? or put them on the thread?

sweet idea. ill try to get a good picture of my shiznit :D

alex said I just got FFVI in the mail. Ive got all superfamicom ff games for the picture :D

Edit: Have a huge picture, some red might need cropping out but it's the only way i could make it so the flash wasn't blinding.

Its so weird seeing the "real" box art for FFXII. I'm so used to the Limited Edition's box.

Yeah I still need to get one of those collectors editions. They go for $80 sealed I think which is pretty decent

Edit, if the picture is too wide you can crop out the Blu rays

edit2: also @matt. will we be able to have pictures of our collections updated once in a while? my collection grows in size pretty quickly. (I wont want a new picture for every single game I get :p )

@madmax Yes. This is something I plan on maintaining just to keep them fresh.

After this weekend is over I might be able to get some pictures of my gameboys...I've got like 20 now, different models, so that might be a good one.

Yeah it does, now it's a whole bunch more interactive. Now if someone happens to land on the front page they won't be put off, thinking they need to make an account just to see what it's all about.

I forget who has all those arcade games and pinball machines but a picture of those would be awesome for the front page!

I'm a little dissapointed that I always have to log out to see it. especially since it remembers I'm logged in xD *annoying Max is never happy (sorry)*
