Yet another tio project
Based on this image:


I would like to change the background from a solid, flat blue color to a nicer gradient with a small watermark-y image in the lower right. For those of you with Skype, I'm picturing something like what Skype does to the conversation area when there's no conversation active. Image:


So a simple, cute background image to be pinned to the lower right, in order to fill visual space and add a nice feel to the program. The image itself can be of your design, and you don't need to include a gradient effect; a single light color that pairs well with the tio image at the top is fine. One idea I have (NOT REQUIRED TO FOLLOW) is a trophy with people icons gathered near. They don't need to be on hills or anything specifically like the Skype background, but the image should fill some space and look nice without being distracting.



A separate idea: instead of / in addition to the pinned background image, use a subtle abstract-y repeating background to replace the flat blue color. Anything "modern"/"techie" that isn't distracting but breaks up the blue monotony would be good. Hopefully the image can tile so resizing the screen doesn't become an issue.


THANKS!!

I came up with some ideas for this in my sketchbook, but I wanted to see what you think of this idea:



The idea came from the thought of using some kind of podium, with a trophy on the 1st place platform, and the "players" on the other platforms. Then I just figured that platforms didn't have to be stationary and I could try using more than 3, so then I came up with this. I actually still intend to put a trophy on one of the frontmost platforms if you like the idea. (though I'm not exactly sure how I'd render it in 3D, I'd probably have to fake it since I can only make simple symetrical shapes like this)

Here's what it might look like if you shrunk the window.



There's something!

don't see the need for it...

maybe for regular users for running tourneys, but the tourney admins only open it when processing tourneys...which takes like what, 5 minutes? less?

nice idea, but a bit unnecessery, IMO.

It's just to make it more visually appealing. I don't find it either unnecessary or necessary. It's like deciding between putting on jewelry or not.

lol, i know nealdt XD

maybe you should make it so a random gif out of, let's say 20, appears in the background and dances around a bit etc?

lame jokes aside; is it possible to implement a random figure (like that lion, but why not put in a gardevoir, for example?) to appear when starting up tio?
and maybe make an on/off-option so one can choose to have it appear or not.

Here's my attempt at a pattern background. I started off thinking of the brackets but then it turned into this abstract line thing. The pattern is a 100 x 100 tile that looks perfect when repeated.



I can play with the opacity of the lines too.

I can't say I can work on something. I can't really commit myself to work that isn't required right now.

Yeah, here's the 100x100 tile. Do you want a premade size filled or just the tile?
