Hi there,

After @FlayOtters@lemmy.world was able to get in contact with @MushroomMan89@lemmy.world, I volunteered to help moderate this community. I would like to thank both of them for doing the legwork of creating this community/and doing work to keep it running!

I have been a lifelong football/soccer fan and am happy to help keep this community on track and discussing the sport we all love.

If you see something missing on the sidebar (or anywhere else), please let me know!

With that out of the way, does anyone have any photoshop/editing skills? It would be nice to create a banner for this community but that is not something I am excel in so happy to take contributions!

I believe 730px is the max width

This is my attempt with my below average Photoshop skills.

Signatures (left to right): Pele, Cruyff, Maradona, R9, R7, Messi

It's a nice, clean and simple design. Overall i like it, but my one bit of feedback is to scatter the signatures across the field (more random placement). I like the soccer ball pattern in the lemmy logo.

Added it but its getting cut off at the top, when looking at the post list but looks good when you are in comments

[–] IceCapp@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Looking at example of the banner here (https://lemmy.world/c/lemmyworld), it is much larger (2484x950), it adapts as you change window size. I'll see if I can make it bigger to get rid of the pixelation.

Edit: https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestions has banner that doesnt crop on different screen sizes so I'll template that instead.

My comment from earlier today didnt post from Kbin, here it is:

Here is the wide version that shouldn't crop. I couldnt fit the whole field in because of the dimensions.

Wonder if thats too much Lemmy in the top of the page now with the icon and the banner...hmm

[–] IceCapp@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

How about something a bit different?

Edit: https://ibb.co/WKb94rq - Fixed the rough border of the ball.

[–] Coelacanth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That looks pretty slick, I like that a lot more.

[–] FlayOtters@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I like this one. Reminds me of the medals they used to give to you as a kid at football tournaments (Not that I've got many).

[–] Coelacanth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I don't mind the badge by itself but the repeated Lemmy logo on both the icon and the banner next to eachother doesn't look good to me. Easiest solution is maybe to just remove the Lemmy icon from the banner and just have it be a football pitch with all the signatures? I also wouldn't mind the soccer ball being more prominent in the icon/badge somehow, but maybe that is just nostalgia for the old place and the comfort of the familiar.

[–] skipseagull@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I like the 3rd one but open to any of them they are great!

[–] IceCapp@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Did you take a look at the new different design?

[–] Coelacanth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah that's much better. I like it!

[–] Dynixx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah honestly I'd give you that, you're making the sacrifice of modding this place, we'll let you be the owner of the first "new era" banner. Have at it
