New Look for the WP
 

At first I liked the old format. But now either way is fine with me. :food-smil

By the way, Summo has decided to shut down his site at [url="http://www.redskinssummit.com/"]www.redskinssummit.com[/url] but the good news is he's offered to help us out here with graphics and design. This new design is courtesy of Summo, I think it looks great.

Let's welcome Summo to our team!

I voted "It's allright", but I think it deserves alot higher than that, but not "love it". I like how there is now the Redskin head also with the spear. The old look needed the Redskin head logo. Otherwise I really like it!!! Looks cool!! Good job!!!

I like this look a lot, how does it look though with a gold background instead? Either way, the logo looks really cool. Matty, you need to get some new t-shirts made!

Thats plan #2 ;)

I just want to make sure we all see the same thing, do you see the new spear logo with a new WP background as well?? The grey background should be gone.

I added a very good option

I didn't mean to post that twice I am not sure what happened!?!?

I voted very good. It's a nice change. Good job guys!

I'm pretty sure you guys have more to come.

Very Nice!

I thought I went to the wrong site or something....I like it though...its been a year of positive change for us, so why not change this as well....

It's slightly rough on the eyes at first but I'm already growing accustom to it. My only advice would be to maybe scale down the spear at the top.

I'm glad most of you like the look. You can bet there will be more graphics on the way, including a ton of wallpapers and new avatars. I'm very happy to be part of the warpath team now. -Summo

Welcome aboard Summo. I'm sure you'll enjoy it here.

Hmmm, I voted "Bring back the old look", but my vote has somehow disappeared.

No offence Summo but I think if it ain't bust don't fix it.

I voted its alright. I gave a more positive post about it on another thread but I was looking at the logo and I dont like the arrow look at all acutally, I didnt like it on our retro jersey. it reminds me to much of teh seminoles jersey, and other than the fact that I absolutly hate the seminoles, id rather see a logo thats more representative of the new skins logo, with a feather or the indian head. I dont see that changing though, just a personal pet pieve of mine.

I love the new look with one huge exception. The graphic on the top is way too big. It makes me have to scroll down before i can see or do anything on the site. So, as a result, I gave it a "It's alright".

Burgundy and Gold with the spear. I LOVE IT!!! Keep up the good work guys!

Does everyone else see a gold background as well? I see more of a tan color

the background is a bit harder on the eyes when its behind the text boxes. The title bars with the skins logo is really nice though.

Overall, I really love the new look. I think the color scheme is great, the new logo looks excellent, and those title bars with the indian head logo are awesome! I guess I wouldn't mind if the Warpath logo or maybe just the arrow were scaled down a tad, but I think it looks great the way it is now...


Nothing wrong with having a big arrow.:thumb:

I agree!
 

Not only do I not like the new logo, it is harder to hide it while Working! And I agree, the Spear is too big, and takes up a major part of the screen. One of the biggest reasons I preferred this site over HailRedskins.com talk is the simplicity and the basic color. Now, I see competition.

I've always felt at home here, but this is worse than coming home and seeing that my wife of 29 years has changed the living room!

:madani:

If you don't like the new look, just go to your user control panel. Then, on the left menu go to options, scroll all the way down to the bottom and from there you can select which skin you would like to use. The default one is the old look. Enjoy.

Or, I just noticed an even easier way. Scroll to the bottom of any page and you'll see a quick style chooser pull down menu.

awesome. matty's easy solution - have it both ways ;)

man its funny how familiar you get with a site like this one. couple changes and its like someone changed your home up.

love the new WP logo in the background. not a fan of the top graphic. a spear here and there is ok, but shouldn't be the main graphic as we won't see that uniform again anytime soon. if a new redskins fan comes to this site, they may have never followed the Skins when they wore them. not a particularly great season either. i miss the colors of the old one, more like the uniform i've always known. personally i think it'd be nice to promote the Skins as they are, not as they were.

which lead me to an idea...

Matty talked about "skins" (not THOSE 'Skins) for the site we can select. why not have color themes corresponding to the actual Skin uniforms?? just like in a videogame.

the old one could be our usual Away uniforms we use at home, we could have a Home Dark one thats similar but with switched colors. this new one could be the Anniversary one, and yet another remix of the original could be the White on Whites!

but keep the new WPlogo in the background of each, whatever colors you do.

I believe that the retro uniforms are officially the Redskins alternate uniforms, so it's likely we will see them again this year unless Gibbs is totally against it I guess.

Good idea ill, I'll see if I can come up with some more 'skins'

I always wondered if they're ever going to have the retro uniform with the white jersey. I think that would look cool. Gibbs is going to stick with current uniform. I wonder if we'll ever wear the anniversary one again.

i thought the retro spear ones were just for that anniversary season.

and as long as Gibbs has played, its always been the Indian head. doubt he'd want it anyother way although he'll probably leave it up to the players. you guys remember the first time you saw the White on Whites and LaVar debuting the dark visor? to me that ushered in the 'modern Skins'.

The retros came out last year for a game so I don't see what would stop it this year, unless Gibbs objects of course.

I like the design, but I think it could use a little more burgundy in the initial's WP, and maybe a little in the feathers, something to make it pop a little more, and I don't think it would be to intrusive, just food for thought, but I like the fact that you can have an option as well, nice job Matty! Then get those hat's and sweatshirt's ready XX or XXX is my size. :headbange

I dig it. I like how it is a darker gold, rather than the bright yellow you can find on other, inferior sites ;)....even though as some have mentioned, it can have a "tan" look to it. The new "arrow" logo rocks too! :headbange
Good job Matty!!!
