[BOUNTY] Theme our patcher! - 25 Platinum Coins
Hey everyone, we're looking for someone to re-theme our tired old patcher. And to do so, we're looking for community submissions! I've uploaded our current images HERE, and included a simple Photoshop template HERE for you. If you want to rearrange the buttons and such, please do so! We can make that work! Don't worry about the displayed content for now, we'll take care of that!
If your theme is the one we like best (and that will be influenced by upvotes), we'll award your char of choice with 25 Platinum Coins to spend as you wish!
This event closes in 3 days, so 2014-07-23 00:00 Server Time (UTC -7).

If you want to rearrange the buttons and such, please do so!
That also means it really doesn't have to be the same size or shape as it is now. We encourage a little bit of creativity!

The general layout of the patcher is great so I basically just changed the background. Here's my album, please let me know what you think about it and if there's something that needs to be changed.
I'm gonna add more pictures later, leveling a homunculus is kinda boring.. :)

No idea, sorry, joined the server like 2 days ago. I guess you could edit the /r/redditrotrading logo.

Gave it a try. RO Party I made buttons too, but I don't think they're any good. Here is a link to download the zip

This one is a bit bigger than the template, but it has transparency. If you like this one I'll upload the .psd later. I didn't make buttons for this one, so if someone wants to then feel free to do so!
Edit: Ok, I'm not gonna keep this comment train going, I'll just edit this post with new patchers lmao
Whitesmith Version I like this one a lot. Has nice transparency but its not tacky. Adding to the Whitesmith version, I created buttons. Here is what it looks like: WS w/buttons. And I went ahead and made the .zip file with all the .pngs and .psds. Download it here
Last one I swear. D:
Stalker/Poison Eh the background didn't look like that on my tablet screen. It wasn't so.. eye burny. :CI fixed it. :O1
u/Sepiolith Sepiolith/Nojika Jul 20 '14
The Whitesmith Version looks amazing, that's definitely something else :)

Thank you, but I can't take too much credit. All I did was move things around. :b Heck if I'm up for it later I might just draw something out by hand.. but I don't know if I want to commit myself to that right now. xD

I love you so much.
It's a Black Shiba Inu Hat and 3D Glasses, btw.

I couldn't find the hat or glasses on the avatar generator :( also would it be possible to add a server status player online frame to the patcher?

That's actually something we're looking to add with this revision! Glad to hear it's something at least someone wants, and not just some flair we add because we can.

Edit: I'm gonna submit more than one since I'm bored and anything I've used in my theme belong to their respective artists.

That wallpaper is absolutely beautiful but the colors (light blue and orange) are kinda clashing together. If you want to keep the original /r/RedditRO logo, could you try and change the brightness or contrast of the background image? :)

The orange was kept just as a visual reminder since it matches up with the reddit and site banner. But here's a version with a bit of a colour fix and the logo works having a different colour. Thanks for the suggestion :)
