So, what's with the porthole?

[Stephen Lightheart]

Turns out Tar Valon is the lost city of Atlantis, and we're all looking at it from a submarine?

For almost a month now, I've been staring at that new banner, and going, "WTF?! " What's up with that? Why are we looking at TV from a porthole?

Oh, that sort of almost makes sense.

 

[Natalya Laragan]

Stephen, I thought so too.

 

[Ariadne Davion]

what mistress Tree asks for, mistress Tree gets..

 

[Emerald ní Róhan]

It'd make a little more sense if the rest of the banner looked like the inside of a ship instead of just being gray.

 

[Sarramy Valtiele]

I agree with Emerylde Sedai on this.

 

[Syera Faelron]

To me it looked like looking onto a pocket watch

 

[Aran Cherubim]

I can't believe that I've never thought about this. Like, at all.

 

[Caliden Al'Waes]

Oh, thats nifty! I have to confess I didn't even notice :x Observant I am, not.

 

[Siera al'Cere]

I totally got it the moment I saw it

 

[Ariadne Davion]

Eh, drawing the inside of the ship took effort, AND the image repeats in a funny area that is tricky to get perfect. The Gradient was easiest, and seamless.

Slacker! . It actually does look nice, though.

 

[Ariadne Davion]

Bite me. :P

 

[Stephen Lightheart]

Ah, cool! A better banner!

 

[Ubahsur Kindellaer]

I was going to say, if the port hole banner had more detail to it, it wouldn't be as aesthetically pleasing, with too much going on. :P

 

[Murasaki al'Aevon]

... I see Meerkats.

 

[Zimone Zarasri]

Yay finally some sun over the city!

Is it only me or did the boards get more... centered? There's empty spaces on both sides of the forums, they don't use the whole screen anymore.

 

[Erin al'Denael]

Screenshots please?

 

[Keladria Tulin]

You mean this Zimone?

Spoiler

If so, there yah go Erin :P
