Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
Sort of like these things I made last year with Spanex's rank template?

All I want is a rank template with smooth edges.

Yeah, having two different colours based on goodies/baddies would make sense I guess.RayFan9876 wrote:Sort of like these things I made last year with Spanex's rank template?

Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
I disagree. It's enough that the ranks have two different avatars on the same level, changing the colour wouldn't just be the same.Rayman502 wrote:I totally agree 100%.El Dango wrote:Yeah, having two different colours based on goodies/baddies would make sense I guess.RayFan9876 wrote:Sort of like these things I made last year with Spanex's rank template?

I agree with Rulez.

Me too, the pink is fine for me.

Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
If anything, I'd think that the different colours would actually define their stance better than if not. It makes the two sides more distinguished.
Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
Sorry but I'm against this idea too, chiefly because blue and pink give an unwarranted suggestion of gender alignment.
Other than this, I don't think it's at all necessary to complicate matters with a multi-coloured ranklist. I'm not even sure we should smoothen the edges of the existing avatars as they appear fine to me.

Agree with Xenon.

So because your rank is pink that makes you a woman?Xenon wrote:Sorry but I'm against this idea too, chiefly because blue and pink give an unwarranted suggestion of gender alignment.
The ranklist is clearly not aligning gender roles so I don't see how making them pink and blue makes it so.
Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
blue background sucks
Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
That's the point. Pink and blue are colours that universally represent the genders, so why modify a perfectly reasonable ranklist to incorporate these two colours as the two opposing sides?Serza5 wrote:The ranklist is clearly not aligning gender roles so I don't see how making them pink and blue makes it so.

Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
From my view it doesn't complicate matters at all if gender is out of the question, in fact, I think it makes it clearer. I see what you mean in regards to gender, but we have the icons directly above our avatars.Xenon wrote:Sorry but I'm against this idea too, chiefly because blue and pink give an unwarranted suggestion of gender alignment.

But whatever, it's just a colour.

Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
Exactly my point. So what if people assign colours to genders? It's just colours at the end of the day. Maybe if we stopped going on about people assigning colours to genders then maybe people will stop doing that.RayFan9876 wrote:But whatever, it's just a colour.

Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
It doesn't have to be pink vs. blue, any change is fine with me, although it should probably be something that fits with the overall layout.

In that case, let's just make the gender icons white.Serza5 wrote:Exactly my point. So what if people assign colours to genders? It's just colours at the end of the day.

Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
I think you missed the point there Plum.
In other words if people like Xen stop making a fuss about it then maybe the colours would stop being associated with genders and be nothing more than colours.

Re: List of ranks: Help us build the new rank list!
I'm not making a fuss, I'm giving my thoughts on an idea that was posted on the last page. And the association would exist regardless of whether it's discussed in this topic. It's not as if I'm trying to persuade users of RPC to associate these colours with male and female.
Anyway, Matyuv's template looks great. Let's see what our admin says!
