This forum houses many years of development, tracing back to some of the earliest posts that exist on the board. Its current use is for the continued development of the server and game it has always served: The Mana World.
Well. I dont like it. IMO it doesnt fit to game. Photographic background isnt good solution, same as those figures and interlace. Goddes should have havier borders - i recomend trace it into vector curves and color it in same way.
well, thanks for the criticism. i agree that it doesnt fit the game currently, but all mana games revolve around a giant tree surrounded by jungle. that is what i based the design on. i used an artisic filter on the backgorund to make it less photographic, i guess i didnt do enough. vectoring the goddess is doable, but it will take some time. and as for the interlace/geometrical shapes, well, i guess its just my style. i can make revisions. input is welcome.
my two cents: i find the hexagonal stuff in the background irritating, since the game's completely based on squares. also, i'd add a thin white border or something around the title text, so it stands out a little more.
anyways, i prefer the current login screen style. the huge white areas give it a certain final-fantasy-ish feel.
