Sponsors logos

Tornado · 01-02-2005, 08:04 PM

With the additional sponsors, the top is looking a bit crowded,
I think it would it be a good idea to have just the fordforums logo up the top and all the sponsors logos at the bottom of the page.

Just an idea for the admins to consider...

Thanks Goran

As the the sponsor play a big part of this site, I believe that they need top billing at least on the main page.

We have some ideas though for future improvements

I guess it depends on the resolution your running.
It looks fine with the amount we have now at resolutions above 1024x768, but I don't think you will be able to fit one more in..

FalKeen · 01-02-2005, 08:19 PM

yep agreed they need to stay at the top

however on mine 1024x768 im still losing a bit of the banner and sponsors off the side of the screen

im running 800x600 and the last sponser i can see is Peter Warren and less than half of the silver GT in the forums banner. maybe if the sponsers could be put down the side or something like that?

FalKeen · 01-02-2005, 08:30 PM

all that needs to be done is set the images as a percentage of the screen rather than a definate pixel size

oh well im sure plans are under way anyway

Im running 1280 by 1024. I can see it all fine, got a tiny gap of each side of the ff.com.au logo. Just wat i was thinking the bpt logo still stands out a little bit, thanx to the white background, it looks better then it was originally but maybe can anyone like make it completely white sorounding and it mite fit in a bit more, make it look more professional also. As for the space issue with sponsers, i to think they should be kept up the top but maybe there should be two kind of lines of them, spread out, will look nice, not to clustered and there will be more space for aditionaly sponsers. Anyway just my two cents. BTW Admin, ur doing an AWESOME job. Keep up the great work

Cheers Shane

maybe even a flash style box at the top with them rotating through all the time? or would that slow us down too much?

Im guessing it would. The amount of different pages opened and page changes in the forums would cause a bit of slow down (especially for dial-upers')

John i agree... i can see them all fine, on my home monitor i have room for 1 more sponsor either side..
i few sponsors logos is a lot better than filling the site up with google..

EFFalcon · 02-02-2005, 10:27 AM

the sponsors are happy.
i'm happy with the placement.
making them resize with the size of the window gets us into issues as we did before with them being pixelated.

I like it as it is now but the horizontal scroll is driving me nuts.

Thanks for the comments guys - we will probably implement a second row if we need to rather than create scrolling. Jeff is looking at a number of minor changes that might help.

Cheers

agreed with Russ on this one - a second row would fix it just nice!
