About a board aesthetic change update

A few weeks ago, we had started brainstorming ideas about customizing the looks of DtP and L'sV boards. It's not anything complex, we just took some official artwork and mirrored it so that Klonoa's head isn't blocked from view due to the game's cover. But we would still like to know your opinion about it.

Are you okay with it ? Is there a problem, or/and are there modifications to be done ? Ideas ? Should we loop the current image around ? Comment your opinions below.

[FORGET ABOUT THIS] I'll leave this open until this saturday at 23:59 (roughly four full days from now).

I don't have much to say about it personally, this is honestly pretty bare-bones of a change. The mirror aspect also isn't of my taste. But the official artwork's still great

the text color and the brighter spots of the picture near middle-top kinda blend together, most noticeable with the forum titles where you have to highlight the text to be able to read it. otherwise, i think any decision should be fine

Ah, correct for the green text. We could change it to something slightly brighter

I've just tried fixing the contrast issue, and came up with this. Not very satisfied by the color, but anything not dark enough wouldn't get rid of that issue. Maybe we should just change the image for something more sober. Something like this board : https://www.speedrun.com/katamarireroll/forum Their design is minimalist enough, but it works on top of being very night mode fitting, at least. If someone has an idea on how to do that, we might consider it :)

I have decided to not close this thread, as well as the other one dedicated to L'sV. Leaving them open doesn't hurt for this kind of topic.

I think changing the image to something more sober and minimalist might be a good idea. As much as I like the artwork by itself, the leaderboard itself is going to cover up most of the image. I don't have any ideas yet as to what a minimalist design that would accurately reflect the spirit of the game would be yet, so I'll keep thinking about that.
