Today out of boredom, I decided to design since I'm feeling a bit better ( I've been sick. ) I was looking around deviantArt to get inspired, and I figured I'd try my best at a Clan Layout using a screen shot I myself took from Halo.

Here's the result:

If you look in the link it says 'finish.' On my .psd it says 'FINISH' which is just a little reminder to finish it

Also if anyone is wondering..

It took me around 50 minutes to create this. That's going by how big my play list is, and my play list ended right when I saved. Also, this piece has 22 layers, and 3 groups.

C&C is appreciated

You've have improve greatly from the last web design I've saw from you. The banner shape is the same from your others but it works fine in this piece. The menu gradient is hawt, and so is the menu buttons.

I think you should lower the menu text just a tad bit and some for the lighting in the menu buttons. And then have the rollover buttons the opacity you have now. Banner is great, maybe try sharpening and blurring out some of the parts? I dunno, it's up to you.

btw I also thought you hated Halo.

I don't HATE Halo, it's just over rated =/ Oh, and thanks for the C&C, I'll probably do that once I go to finish it.

One thing that I don't like about this piece, even though it's a fantastic header piece is that - well, you've created the pwnage effect really well. However, you have the lighting on the buttons, but nothing above the buttons either.

To me, that looks really weird towards the left of the banner, however, any clan that plays Halo would be proud to have this as their banner TBH. It's a fantastic piece.

Your lighting does need fixing, but that's the only thing about it really. The shadows on the car aren't there or are in the wrong places. You have an explosion from behind you, so by all means the car should have some form of shadow on it

The fade is well done, since I'm swapping windows I thought it was a mistake until I re-opened it It looks really nice. The sci-fi theme that you have going with the sleek black is fantastic.

More?

Since this is such a fabulous piece, I would extend the banner and create an entire forum based on the theme It's well done, I must say.

To have that come from you means a lot to me I might consider making it into a forum template, who knows.

As for the shadows on the car, I didn't change the picture too much. I set up a wall of explosions, and drove into it on Halo and then took a screen shot in the Theater mode. The only thing I've done to it is sharpened/blurred, and faded.

Thanks for the C&C

Then Halo's shadows are wrong

I do mean what I said with the leetness of that banner, it is superb, only problem is that I don't play Halo
