Eirias 369 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Hey, is anyone good with photoshop or other graphic designs? I'm looking for a way to do thumbnails, because I think the lack of them really hurts the channels (or, it will when we try to get new people interested) So can anyone get some kind of images that I could use to signify different players? I suppose t1 units would be the best (archers, perhaps, so SS, MA, WW, and forsaken?), although the best-case scenario would be to get images of all the common PvP units, so I could put something that represents the players (like a vileblood if that was special during the match, or nox troopers if a game was won by spamming them, etc). So can anyone help me? Here is a thumbnail creator for Super Smash Bros, to give you an idea of what I need.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idk, depends on the quality you want them to be, if it's just "recognisable" then that's easiy, if you want them to be detailed and not pixelated and such it takes a bit longer. Give me a couple to start with and I'll do them whenever I can Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Give me a couple to start with and I'll do them whenever I can Thumbnails are relatively small. Will a not pixelated version be very much different to a pixelated one that you can really see the difference? The same with the details. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Those are probably the most iconic PvP units. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well, the thumbnails would be 1920 x 1080, so however size you think would balance well. I'm also taking suggestions on the thumbnails. I'm thinking a simple BFR logo in the middle, with some kind of line and the names of the players and their unit of choice . Any other suggestions? I really like MVG's thumbnails for SSB4 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_dkX2_MJZeiYZImFN8AOvg/videos Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was meant for cards so I mean the scavenger is 500x500 or something btw too much glow around? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like the glowy look, at least with fire units. maybe post some other faction units to see if they look good too? btw, never noticed that scavenger has tiny wings on his arm xD lol Edited September 8, 2016 by SilenceKiller99 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think the light source is on the left, so the left glows more than the right (because that is the shadow side)... it looks like that, don't know if that was intended Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The artwork has context so the lighting is odd when you cut out the thingy. If you see what I mean Anyway I think this really only goes for fire, maybe nature units, but probably not shadow or frost. Definitely not frost. I tried it and it looked just really bad. It's really hard to get those bloody crossbow strings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guess that would work for thumbnails, got two ones here, as one is easier for the eyes (which might become handy for thumbnails), where the other one is straight up rendered on higher resolution. What do you think about that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ladadoos 1042 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 @Lukaznid Ah, I thought you added the glow in photoshop but you just let some glow stay from the original artwork. Nonetheless, I don't think it will be noticeable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
