Yep yep yep...

  Ah you....git! You are lucky I like you ...alot

So you want a complete front page designed or just a game logo? Are you looking for just random pieces or a complete design? Also do you want said design coded??

it is very dark, and there is very little overall design. I had no issue logging in.

So if I was to consider making some premades to auction or sell off, what kind of themes would you be interested in? Also what kind of budget are most of you looking to stay within?

Yes, if I decide to start committing to work again I will have to resolve that. I do have samples of previous work, but as this is not what this thread is about, and I'm not currently looking for work, I will have to make you wait on that. Sorry :)

HAHAHA... that is almost a decade old :)

Beautiful template , but probably very much out of this audiences league, a lot of money and/or time spent on art.

How much a design costs depends on what you are looking for, I have some projects I need to start and complete before I get into taking other jobs.. This wasnt an advert to get work, more of a general inquiry to which no one besides Djkanna has shown much of anything. I was really hoping to see some links to games people think look cool...

Soooo...I'm thinking of making more time to get back into graphics and template designs....I'm wondering what the current likes and dislikes are around here so lets see some links to your favorite game designs and templates....Just curious what passes for good design around here these days. Was gonna post this in the design area but its more of a general inquiry so...hopefully I don't annoy anyone with the section I decided to post in... Thanks!

Correct me if Im wrong but the template in your portfolio is it there just as a place marker? looks like you took this template http://gamesitetemplates.com/vbulletin-forum-skins/vbulletin-skins-v4/blade-forum-skin-v4/prod_328.html and drew over it and added a knight you found form somewhere also...and shield. Is it just for personal use, just curious...

Oh my, I have to agree with Alain...the red is far too bright. also your header section looks lopsided the rings arent the same on either side, but arent different enough to be able to say it was on purpose. The general idea is okay, but rething how you want to do it to make it appealing to users...you do want to attract people. Look at sites you like pick them apart and remake the pieces you liked into something new and unique. Its a beginning, but not much more..but yes we all do have to start somewhere, why we ALL choose to start using bevelled text is beyond me. Yes, Im guilty but since that was about 15 years ago ...Ill pretend I didnt do it.

Id have to say community...I almost went with quests missions and such, but lets face it there are games with thousands of players that have crappy graphics, story lines, and coding... Here is the punch tho...you have to have something to draw that community to begin with. I can remember 6 years ago working on a sig designing site and having someone come in to request a signature for a text based game. I thought to myself why the heck would anyone ever want to play such a thing? Being a very curious person by nature, I registered to the game looked around and was bored within a few hours, but then I decided to browse the forums. Now the forums peaked my interest , but my real downfall was that first time I joined mIRC...5 years later I still log into that game from time to time to visit. I spent a good year of my life volunteering as staff on that game. I found people I enjoyed being around...and that is the only reason I can give you for why.

Cronus is a good person to work for, and is willing to pay for quality.

You went to university for graphics design and this is what you have learned?? I guess for the price, its okay... Sorry if I offend anyone, but I really dont feel this is university level graduate design work.
