I see a lot of those are put together in the EA football website as backgrounds so if you have a look into the elements (or whatever the technical term is ) then you might find some good backgrounds like that.

those images are from the elements from here

I suppose I can work that.. juss need to work on changing the grey areas to white
thanks.

I'll have a look around for more.

found something that can help when finding different colours that you want with the same design.

stick in this URL: (messes up when posted on the thread hence the code box)

Code:

http://cdn.easf.www.easports.com/uk/football/static/images/common/club_backgrounds/0.jpg

Change the 0.jpg to another number like 1.jpg 2.jpg etc...

there are different colours for different clubs.

this is the current issue that holding me up on working with the portal.. if anyone has any ideas

http://help.forumotion.com/t108385-fully-customising-the-portal-in-my-own-way

I have since tried every suggestion in that thread from the replies.. and nothing is making that white area in PORTAL transparent. There is actually a way of getting around to this by removing the footer all together so portal content wont be confined to a table.. which it seems to be if you check source (even though on the widget I have indicated no table). But it will be an inefficient way of doing things and would make updating portal from time to time unpretty.

I also aware of the stadium bg image being cut into half in pages that have very little content. Will fix that, once I figure out which div is the best to stick it in

From LG:

Well its the #wrap element with that color background. So the CSS #wrap { background: none } would sort it.
However, if you want that CSS to only make that effect in the portal then, do as said in my last PM.


Previous PM from LG:

If you want your CSS to be only active in the portal, then make a widget, and put the CSS in style tags. Then place that widget only in the portal. Seems the easiest way.

I already had this in announcements yesterday

Code:


<style>
#main_content
{
  width: 100%;
  height: 960px;
  background-color: transparent !important;
  background-image: none !important;
}
</style>


however adding <style></style> in the CCS page on that code, says its an error and wont accept it.
I am at a point of throwing in the towel, coz I know its a simple thing.. its juss not working for me, no matter what I try.

I give up lads... been wrecking my head and everything I try doesn't work..
I even tried cheating by adding this with "Only In Portal" checked lol.. but it will juss add the DIV tag at the bottom of every other page.. making the pages have a huge blank space at the bottom

/rips hair

Code:



$(function(){
$('#wrap').after('

<div id="main_content">
</div>

');
});


juss that small snag is preventing me from completing the home page.

hey i made a PSD of it ask me what colours you want an ill make them its quite simple for me

nice one Stevo.. can you make yellow/red/orange.. basically lots of colors so we mix and match to see which one fits best.. also if the grey area can be changed to white.. coz theres gonna be text on that.

heres the link that Neymar posted a while ago.. you juss need to change the number.jpg at the end to download different ones.

Code:

http://cdn.easf.www.easports.com/uk/football/static/images/common/club_backgrounds/0.jpg

yeah thats what i used to make it yellow and orange i shall try

how about this no real gradient as it was vey hard to make on eon the whites what size you want?

290 by 175 pixels.. can the color thingies be moved to the right like
http://web-vassets.ea.com/Assets/Richmedia/Image/Billboard/creationCentre_ENG.jpg
and also have the white btwn the two different colors?

sure thing ill put the white in between as that black is a green shadow that is hard to get rid of how about the whites though are they fine?

can the white be a bit more bright? If getting the white line in between the two colors is hard we can always work with one color for each

Code:

http://cdn.easf.www.easports.com/uk/football/static/images/common/club_backgrounds/13.jpg

ill just make it fully white on the sides and the white in the middle isn't too hard although the Newcastle one is awesome

Okay this is yellow and red (u should know) with the white line i added a gradient i can remove it and the sive 290-170

thats awesome work NMStepho.. can that greyish/shadow thingy be removed and juss have that as white.. as you can see on homepage would need 3 different ones for each box - different colors in each.

yep

I can make the white line thinner if you want msg me what colours u want
