I would like to see a bigger video and not tucked away in the corner, the video should be one of the main focuses of the theme, I can tell your tucking it away because you want to see the wheel image, I would get out of that mentality and just cover it up. What I would do personally would be move all the character art to the left so theyre partly off the screen, blow up the video about 75 percent, create a big logo for the game and stick that up in the top right area.

Still would like to see a bigger video and bigger logo thats more obvious, the theme still seems the same with stuff moved around.

Ya the big logos better, any reason the video keeps moving to the left and covering the character art more and more? I'd move it over to the right over the wheel. I was wondering where did you get the background, it goes really good with the theme.

I'm thinking he needs to cover over the part where he cut out the zupapa logo.

I agree with BadBoyBill....the video should cover the wheel and maybe you can find some other character art to cover over the area where you cut out the zupapa logo.

A good start so far...

OK

I am quite limited in the opportunities that are offered me to change my theme.

the characters are hard to change, because I have a text in the middle of the image that I will be almost impossible to remove.

I have therefore shifted the video to the wheel and I added some characters, making a lot of retouching.

you like the background image, it is me who've created, I think also what together perfectly with the theme, it is very "japanese"

I do not hide the wheel with the video, but if you prefer, and then I do not see a problem.

I hope that you enjoy

sorry for my English approximate :bawling:

Looks good to me, maybe move the video up so part of it is behind the logo to give it a little depth , but looks great.

The problem is the logo in the first effort is part of that whole picture not seperate, if you remove the logo what do you draw in it's place?

lole,

This picture would be better to work with because it contains a bigger logo.

So if I understood it, I just change the logo "ZUPAPA!" by one you are suggesting, because mine is too small

like that!!

But the logo is washed out in color, probably do this, add a 1-3 pixel smart blur to even the coloring out, then adjust the contrast or the adjust the rgb curve.

Sorry, obviously it must be difficult to understand what I mean't due to language barriers.

What I meant was to use the picture I found so you didn't have the problem of covering up the spot when the Zupapa! logo was and that way you could fit in all the characters.

I quickly put this picture together to avoid language problems.

Something like this but perhaps bigger logo and your background.

so my English is very bad

but I do not know who I must listen now.

retroborg or badboybill ???

I just changed the settings of the logo "zupapa" (contrast, color, balance, curve)

My question is, do I inspire me your idea retroborg?

Or keep my theme as I suggested badboybill ??

I would post a picture with the logo corrected, tell me what you think, and if necessary I would do the theme as I was asked retroborg.


thank you to you for the time you spend has my theme.
