I was thinking how it would be nice for this forum to have it`s own Favicon instead of using the stock ProBoards one. So how about having a comp to design one? I have a custom one made up already but it`s the one I used to use with the old PDNFans sight so I think a new one is in order to go with the new forum. As you can see the one I am using was made to blend with the colours of the old forum - black & red. For anyone wondering about Favicons and how to make them this tutorial should help - breakthenetwork.com/2011/01/13/favicons/Firefox users can download an add-on called Favicon Picker 3 which makes the process of changing them a doddle. All you have to do is design one you like, upload it or paste in the URL from where it`s hosted and away you go! So what do you think?

Sounds like a good idea.

I think we're going to have several comps going on at once. Let's finish up the dA comp first and then we'll see about the banner comp and the favicon comp.

Sure Lance , no problem. There`s no hurry.

Cool! I was wondering that myself. I also have a question: Are we going to make a non-Paint.NET section? Where we can like post our work in Photoshop and stuff?

Great minds think alike because I'd been wondering too ever since we started on the dA one.

I know I`m a bit biased ( not having a dA account anymore and all that) but I think a non PDN section is a great idea. I would love to display some of my non PDN images here.

I'll have to talk with Welshy about that. I have been thinking the same thing myself, what with photography and 3D arts I have been doing lately. Bear in mind that we want to continue to make this primarily a PDN fan site, but I know we need to be flexible.

Well to be honest Lance, most of my work ends up PDN at some point anyway. My TG2 pieces are generally worked on there to finish them off. I would not expect to post Gimp images though as there are Gimp forums for that. But for Sketchup, TG2 etc it would be handy.

I think a favicon will be a great idea and I like Goon's already. And also, a non-PDN section would be great, too. Pleeeaaaase!

Well it is a Paint.NET fan site, but we all do work that is not always Paint.NET. I do lot's of work that is distorted (or manipulated) in Paint.NET after doing it in Photoshop. It would be great to share the non-Paint.NET work with everybody here since the Main Forum is strictly against it.

This thread is still open in the Official forum, but I am not sure what the reaction will be if you post there after this long time .

I've no problems with a non-PDN section.

Both a forum favicon and a non-PDN section would be excellent.
Have a nice day, ~Sidneys1

Probably depends on the mod & the mood & the way the poster approaches the subject. Who wants to try? Not me ! One of the quickest ways to get your head bit off is to necro-post on the main forum. I have seen too many noobz with gnawed up fingers to even think about it. I think a non-PdN section would be great. I don't get to DA that much and I would really enjoy seeing some of you all's non-PdN stuff and I would like to post some of my Gimp stuff as well.

Unfortunately I think Possum is right. Post in that thread and you`ll get a mod moaning at you. Chris you being too scared to post there is a good example of why we are all here instead.

Well, I don't want to post there since I will be bringing up a thread that is over two years old, and I have "Biggest Forum Troll of 2010" under my name. :lol:
