    Good morning Northenders

    If you look at the Sunderland/ Cardiff/ Hull City boards you'll see that they have a background picture of their choice, instead of the grass with the white line.
    If you have any thoughts or ideas that you'd like to see as our background on here then please post a pic on this thread and I'll ask Mick (admin) to sort it out for us. Please bear in mind that the pic has to be MORE than 1800 pixels.
    Over to you Northenders :)

    Will have a look at my photos and see if there is anything suitable for that type picture..<ok>

    Had a look but nothing suitable, going to have a look at Deepdale on Google Earth and see what might be useful..<ok>

    I think that the two best choices would be, a photo taken from the STF looking at an empty Invincible Pavilion stand showing the PNE FC on the seats etc.
    Or one from outside the STF showing the PNE FC. But where do you find one ???? I am still looking.
    There is one as per the first choice on the PNE site but you can't download it..(well I can't anyway).

    Still searching..<ok>

    Good evening Pumbs <ok>

    I think that's a great idea and Jonners has got the right idea with the pics <ok>
    I know what you mean about not being able to get the one off the website, it won't let me do it either :huh:
    I'll have a look at Google Deepdale images and see if there's a more direct one straight facing, but if not, we'll go with one of Jonners if that's ok with everyone :smile:

    Forever...<ok> after many attempts I might have cracked it.
    Click on Image to magnify etc. Not sure why I couldn't post transfer it full size, maybe it's too big..:emoticon-0111-blush

    <ok>

    steve

    Thank you for your hard work and efforts, much appreciated and very kind of you to do them for us <ok>

    I'd stick the badge on the one that theflyingplumber did (and you kindly expanded for us) but not sure how to do that! Some great pics you found there for us and thank you once again :)



    Nothenders, are we happy with plumbs contribution? And thanks to Jonners too, great ideas for us to go with <ok>

    I didnt think that one would need the badge, as its plain to see who it is. and if you look at the big picture, it does look a little bit pixelated.

    but if you want to blend the badge in, and you have photoshop, you just use the gradiant tool and have a layer mask on the layer with the badge, then shift left click along the badge to make it blend in. (its pretty much that easy lol)

    Personally i love the night time one, but its your board :)

    Yes I think you're right steve, doesn't really need the badge...I've submitted the one you enlarged for us and the nighttime one as a second choice, and I agree it looks great...looks fine as a wallpaper on my pc screen :)

    Thanks again, impressive stuff <ok>

    Plumbs <ok>

    Many thanks to you too, I know you worked hard to find the right pic for our board :)

    Looks impressive I think, and thanks to Mick (site creator) for the final job of putting the background up for us <ok>
