Latest WIP (please suggest based on this):
285714


So I wanted to save a few bucks and decided to make my own server banner. I was working on on it and all was going well until I closed the program without saving the file :mad:.

Luckily I was able to save a GIF of my WIP banner, and since I'm starting from scratch I might as well ask for suggestions.

Here's what I managed to make before exiting the program without saving:

My current plan is:
  • Reanimate the birds because it wasn't saved :cry: (should they be slower/faster? should there be more? smaller or larger?)
  • Fix the timing (I'll probably make the logo and text last longer)
  • Position the text better, and maybe add some sort of gradient or style to it (any suggestions on this, would wood or leaf textured text work?)
  • Add more elements (particles? maybe a sunrise/sunset of some sort? ocean waves? I have no idea what would be good - please help!)
Let me know if you have any ideas that might work well for this :p

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

Instead of having it zoom in and out, make it come in from around the top right[DOUBLEPOST=1572838265][/DOUBLEPOST]
