thank you 🙂 great job …
Thanks for the awesome background! This is the first one I’ve installed. I appreciate your hard work man, keep up the good work 🙂
No, mate, the dragon’s size is good… I was saying to put it a little bit higher just because it seemed cut off in the video, but if you say it only depends on the TV, then there’s no need to waste your time to make it bigger… I think it’s ok as it is 😉
Ok, I got the 1920×1080 background: now it’s much better! 😛
As for adding new elements, I’ll start working on it as soon as possible.
But about adding a couple more rocks to the one moving from left to right… well, obviously I can’t do nothing because they’re part of the animation, so… it’s up to you 😀
Its ok you can start working on this theme backgrownd and icons went you can and finish the work which you are currently working. For the image resolution I dont Know why but that image size Its wrong I upload a image with size 1920×1080. Ummm strange the imageshack page I think shrink the image by default or something so you can get another image from here : http://www.mediafire.com/?l3g83su8pb2b0o3
For the speed animation im working on it…But the problem i have is that the animation for a resolution of 1920×1080 have to be on 15 frames (images) only. I cant for the moment create a animation with 15 frames with more images frames. But I can use more frames 34 for example but the quality image have to be on 1280×720. I try to change the speed in the script but dont work well and looks with a little lag and this for the limited numbers of images used to create the animation. But dont worry Im working on the animation speed. On the dragon size I can make it more bigger I have no problem with that and thanks for the observation but the dragon is in the video cut off for a reason and is because the image resolution is 1920×1080 and my tv only support image size of 1280×720 (720p) I think if you see it on a TV resolution of 1920×1080 the dragon is not cut i think. This thing happend to me on all my HD resolutions themes on my TV. But if you want as I said I can make it more bigger for the final version if you think look better with a larger dragon. And for the other ideas you have to put it the castle or the volcano I think it a great idea…As I said put in the backgrownd what you imagine to modify and “enriched” a little the scene and the final version looks great. Thanks for your time I will be patiently waiting for you to add those ideas 🙂 take all the time you need.
Yeah, I saw the video and I like it! (And thanks a lot for putting my name in it! :D)
Well, I really like the result! I only think that maybe Atreyu and the dragon Falkor should be placed a little higher, because Falkor is cut off in the lower side.
Hmm… I would add a couple more rocks (maybe with different heights) to the one moving from right to left, in order to enrich the image a little bit more, and the flying speed of the eagle passing through the screen should be slowed down a bit.
Also, I think that some elements may be added to the background (like the castle, the volcano and something else) to make the scenery a little more varied (and so recall other parts of the movie) 😉
As for the background: ok, I saved it, but I noticed the resolution is 1024×576…
Is it the native one? Or maybe I saved the wrong image…? O_o
Just one thing, though: as I said, I’m working hard on the theme requested by KH_Nerd at the moment, and I can’t concentrate on anything else for now, because I’m consuming all my energy on it…
So don’t worry, my friend: you only need to wait a little while, but as soon as I finished this theme, I’ll start working on your background! 😉
Well OPTIMUS here is the video preview for the theme, its only a video idea not the final theme. I create a video preview to show you how its look and for you to take the video as reference for the idea you have to the theme. With this reference you can take a better look to what you want to add to the theme in the backgrownd that I leave you in here.
Video Idea : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOk-2IVpqrk
Let me know what you think. And as I said earlier feel free to put in the backgrownd that I left all the concepts you have to create a new one with your ideas. Only add the concepts you have to the backgrownd and upload it again to use it in the final version 🙂
Very good ideas … If you want you can add anything you want at this picture it is the backgrownd of the theme and is the static part of the theme. Here is the image : http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/257/bg01x.png/
Don’t worry and feel free to put in there what you imagine, because you’re not forcing the creation and you not alter the imagination because this is our creation at the begining. This is an theme created by us 🙂
Oh yeah, fantastic! That’s what I was talking about!
Maybe, the only thing is… well, I think it should be “enriched” a little.
I mean: since there’s the moon (right there where I imagined), the image is supposed to be a night scene, right? So, I suggest you darkening the image a little.
Then, let me see… Ok, the sky should be a very dark blue, and full of stars (and maybe some cloud softly illuminated by the moon). Also, I would add a slight glow around the moon to create a contrast with the dark of the night. That’s to give the right atmosphere to the scene… 😉
Only suggestions, of course: I know that’s just a preview, and I don’t wanna force you to make something different from what you imagined… 😀
@OPTIMUS
Well this is the image preview of the animation I start to create about this theme. Here is the preview image : http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/849/previewimage.jpg/ let me know what you think ?
Uhm… you know what? Sounds good! 😀
Yeah, the idea to make Atreyu while’s riding the dragon with the sky moving behind (maybe by night, with the stars and a big moon placed to the upper right) is perfect!
When I’ve done with the last themes, we could start this project… 😉
Hey, I’m really glad you liked my “Old Glories” theme! 😀
As I said, I wanted to create a tribute to those old good games that made the history and accompanied our childhood: you know, I had even started a kind of contest in which you had to guess the various characters and their games. The problem is that nearly all the users here are very young, so very few have succeeded… 🙁
But I think that much likely you’ll be able to recognize them all 😉
@OPTIMUS Well it a good idea but the animation used to create this theme its not made by me… The animation gif used its created by : Darwin Yamamoto-Pixel of the Colossus. But you know what I like the idea and I can try to make one animation from scratch like this one. its not dificult to create one animation like this and this animation its made with a few frames only which makes it easier to create. You know we could do this together, I can create the animation and you can create the perfect icons for the theme. what do you think? I have another idea for the theme animation Atreyu ride the : “Fortune Dragon” like in the movie and you can see the sky and some clouds moving…
Yeah I saw today the “Mike Tyson’s Punch Out Theme” created by : F-Rott its another pice of art I like it a lot. Thanks for letting me know about this other theme your create : “Old Glories” I will take a look of it right now. 🙂
Oh yeah! Maybe you could create an animation like the one you made for this theme… I remember there was a scene in the movie where Atreyu rode his horse in a vast grassland: well, you could put Atreyu on his horse and replace the colossus in the background with the white dragon… what do you think?
Hey, I noticed you saw the “Mike Tyson’s Punch Out Theme” made by my friend F-Rott time ago… very nice, huh? 😀
Uhm, since you said you’re an old player like me… about 1 year ago, I made a tribute theme for the good old games that have made the history of videogaming and accompanied our childhood: its name is “Old Glories”
Try to take a look, I think you might like it… 😉
@OPTIMUS
Nice idea a “Never Ending Story theme” would be great….
OH MY GOD… I’m sooo glad to know there’s someone who still remembers that awesome movie 😀 It’s still the best fantasy movie ever!!!
Yep, I agree, it reminds me of Never Ending Story too! Here in Italy, the creature ridden by the character Atreyu, was called “FortunaDrago” (in English it should sound something like Fortune Dragon or so…)
No doubt: even when it comes to movies, the 80’s were the best! 😀
You know, I think a “Never Ending Story theme” would be absolutely great (well, for the oldies like us, at least :P…)
Uh, speaking of themes: I remember that yesterday I was telling you something about it, in your “Classic Games” theme, but I no longer remember what… O.o
@OPTIMUS Oh man thanks a lot for your comment… I’m waiting for The Last Guardian to and you know I saw the trailer of this game and remember me for some reason the movie : “Never ending story” maybe for the giant “Cat/Bird” friend of the character that appear in the trailer….In future I want to make one theme of both games 🙂
Oh man… I loved this game as well as ICO (and I’m eagerly waiting for The Last Guardian)!!!
You know… I think if there had been a game like this in the 16bit era, we would still be playing on NES, MegaDrive and so on… 😉
Veeery good job, mate! 😀
Thanks bro ! You know this game its in my list of top ten games and favorite games. Thanks for create the beautiful icons Its the better part of this theme.
Yo Faxtron, I was gonna this too, you beat me to it. My favorite game. Very nice
