brightknightie: At dawn, a white knight raises her lance (Default)
For various reasons, I'm trying a new type of logo/banner for our [community profile] fkficfest promos this year. Before I post to communities with it, may I ask you what you see? Here it is:


FKFicFest 2021




What I hope that you see is a horizontal strip of black-and-white FK set images that sizes to your screen (the same image as our collection's AO3 header), with the words "FK Fic Fest 2021" centered on the image in red font color, at a good header font size, and hopefully in a font family like immaj-FK or Chiller (or even just Comic Sans).

Does it work? Thank you!

Thank you very, very much for sharing your observations on my previous post! Truly, you unstuck my brain. I can do better than that with the tools I have.

Next tries:

I'll keep thinking!

The black > white > red can swap around. The image is still a tiling background inside a table, but behind the image is now a black background color, for the DW formats that don't show backgrounds. The font is thicker and larger, and now has a black drop shadow and a white glow. The font family set is: 'immajer-FK', 'Chiller', 'Long Cang', 'Segoe', 'Ink Free', 'Comic Sans', cursive." A tricky bit is that if the font gets too big in a family, it will expand the size of the table, which will both look bad and as if in violation of the banner-size guidelines for the announcement communities. After I post this, I will view it on a device with no added fonts. Thinking!
