[offtopic] We had them in the OTA version on the Jedi, giving an armor bonus to nearby friendly troops. Pure BOS action thanks to zwzsg. When we get to Jedi in SWS, we'll certainly be using lua for it, though.

... unless you count the flag capturing stuff as an aura, which I suppose it technically may as well be. [/offtopic]

Back on topic, yeah, needs less contrast. I personally like the text, since the area looks kind of empty without it.

Perhaps it'd be a good idea to roll out random header images, one for each mod? The text box and Spring logo would be constant, but each mod could submit its own little image (and have it automatically link to the mod's forum thread or something?). We certainly at least need to update the current one before exploring that avenue, though.

I think maybe it should be a little more washed out to match the page astyle... also the text always seemed redundant to me too.... also... you have the metal-wavey bit at the top all wrong.

I'm fairly certain that will be a feature for the "next webpage" which iirc is experiencing an overhaul. or was anyway.

I like the logo suggestions, but isn't the new website under construction anyway?

spring isn't "aiming" to create anything. it's no longer a project, it's very stable.

the text needs to reflect that.

Spring has created. The next step is to conquer the world and support dual core/SLI. The logo should suggest/hint/reflect that.

That's a point of view. I don't think the whole community agree with this priority. I can't imagine that the spring logo should reflect a dual core optimization :D

"Spring is a free, Open-Source Real Time Strategy Game Engine. "

That's it. All the info needed in one short sentence.

Masure, that was spam. Ignore it (or rather, start working on dual core support while i smile at you from above)

Just not the right image for the site. Its not perticuly clean, it's smudgy, and doesn't fit in. I'm all for changin the top banner till the next site, but only if its a good banner.

(remember the hastle we had last time?... took me best part of a year to get the sperm logo changed.)

I second that.

As for the thread, I think the image has a bit too much photoshop over it. A bit too colourful as well, needs to keep with the toned down style of the rest of the site.

But as others has said before me, great initiative!
