Here's How to Change Ugly White WSO Background Images

13 years ago

I don't think we even need to watch the video.

Make the background either #F4F4F4 or set the background to transparent png or transparent gif.

Thanks

It is #F5F5F5.

Bill was trying to make the competition look bad. People would look at their WSOs and be like, something's not quite right with this one. Better buy from that Bill Platt guy. His WSOs always look just right somehow.

Subliminally destroying the competition.

Brian: You must either blame it on Dan or my bad memory.

I could of swore that Dan told me F4F4F4...

Brian: Blame it on his bad memory because I have it defined in Fireworks as #F5F5F5, so that's what I would have told Bill it was.

You're right, it's a pretty simple fix.

The video is still a nice gesture, especially for people who don't know HOW to do the things you just described. It's also a nice reminder that graphics can have an impact on the perceived value of a WSO.

Hmm...

Actually...

I think the best thing for me to do would be to...

Start a new rant thread demanding that Allen change the background on the forum to white so all of the people here don't have to worry about their background color.

Yes?

All the best,
Michael

Thanks

Then there would be a counter-rant from those of us who don't want to go back and change our graphics that we designed to match the existing background color of the forum, so as to stand out from those rubes that just used white.

I made the video for people who don't have a clue how to make a transparent png or gif or know what f5f5f5 means.

Telling someone how to do something is one thing, showing them is another.

If you create WSO's and don't know how to blend in the background images to match the Warrior Forum I have created a quick video that shows you how to do it.

Edit White Background on WSO's

You may want to watch the video on YouTube so you can view it in a larger screen.

I hope this helps you create a more professional looking WSO.

Hey John,

VERY nice of you to take the time to post this.

All this debate for choosing the proper background for WSOs?

LMAO!

I can see a Photoshop CS5 For Internet Marketers - Make your WSOs look great! on the developing.

Or you could just give Thornhill some credit and move along, your pick!

PS. Not everyone on the web is an Hex Color nerd, just saying...
