I have been pondering this, and I would like to add some reasonably cool pictures to the new site design. But, my artistic ability stops at matchstick men. Is there anyone who is able to do this? I would, obviously, provide full credits for any graphics created. PM me if you think that you would be interested.

Thanks.

What type you'd need? I suck at hand-drawing totally, but at digital stuff I'm thinking of my skills as rather good.

I'm the opposite (not that I've had much time to draw recently), so if you want hand drawings maybe I could give it a go, what would you like?

If you want stuff like logos and such graphics I wouldn't mind giving it a try. Just let me know how big you want 'em, format, and some thematic guidelines. I can't guarantee it will look any good but at least I'd have had some good fun trying. The suggestions for the EpiCentre t-shirts would be my best example on my abilities (or lack of the same :D )

Cheers! :)

Thanks for the responses so far. To be honest, while I have an idea of what I want, and what it could be used for, I am less set on any particular style or type. Primarily, I am looking for 'eye candy' type graphics, that I could dot around and generally use to make the site more interesting. One comment that came back was that this site is a little plain, and I want to keep it tasteful, but add more pictures to break things up with. That being said, I do have a specific graphic in mind, that I may get on with. However, any types of graphics would be great. If anyone is interested, let me know before they spend the time on this.

Thanks.

If I can throw in my 2 cents. ?

First I know nothing of grahics so I can't help there. ?Sorry. ?I'm just good with excel. ?But I am a long time lurker.

If planing on a set of graphics to a site I would recommend relatively simple ones. ?

The ones I have always liked best was shots of miniatures in photoshop backgrounds. So a BFG ship appeared to actually be in a nebula, etc. ?

This versus the flash grahics or music. ?Please no music. ?Little things dancing across the screen and stuff really push a buttons.

So there you go the lurker speaks. ?

Back to watching... ? ? ? ?:D

Thanks. All comments and suggestions are always welcomed. Generally, I agree with what you say. I also like the photoshop'ed mini pictures, but I will probably save graphics of this type for individual articles, and have banners and pictures on main pages.

There will certainly be no sound!

There may be animation (if I can get around to getting it done), but it will be subtle and very limited. I dont want flash cartoons or large files, so this will be limited to spinning buttons if at all. Nothing dancing across the screen! I want to go for a profession and reasonably mature design, but one which is interesting and 'cool'. Now, lets see if I can achieve it!

I hope that this reduces any fears!  :;):
