Season 2 poster
War is Coming! Season 2 is not far behind it. Scott (User:XD1) kindly offered to help us with a redesign and has done loads of work on the front page already but now he has had some time with the season 2 poster and has come up with some concept ideas for new skins to fit in with the marketing of the second season. The skin is the image that sits behind all of our content, currently a rocky landscape of the north on either side of the page. I thought we had better canvas opinion before implementing anything. First, here are the concepts:
- Example 1 featuring the hand and crown in close to their original orientation with a bit of nifty transparency
- Example 2 featuring the hand and crown rotated 90 degrees right and cropped to fit on either side of the screen
- Example 3 featuring the top of the crown rotated on both sides
- Example 4 featuring the top of the crown on the right and the iron throne on the left
- Example 5 featuring the top of the crown on the right and a hatching dragon egg on the left
Please let us know what you think in the poll below:

- I really like the first option, but I'm not much a fan of the all-black appearance of the site. It's too massive: all elements blend into one another. I would go for various shades of grey. - regards, KarinS 22:42, March 21, 2012 (UTC)
- Uhm. I'm not at all sure about this. The black makes the site look massive and lumpish. Plus, there has not been a decision, just a minor vote in which merely *seven* people responded.... - KarinS 19:53, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
