Change the background of a game + game banner

[Lymon Flowers]

Hello everyone,

I am developing a formula one game, Downforce. I considered that changing the wooden background of BGA to an asphalt background would fit the theme nicely, but maybe this is discouraged because of UX coherence. What do you think?

Also, I cannot make the game banner change. I put a img/game_banner.jpg file into my game an reset the game graphics, informations, etc. but to no avail. Is there a procedure that I missed?

Cheers,
Benjamin

Background: yep, they like the wooden table effect so that’ll likely need to stay.

Game banner: in the control panel build a new release after uploading the banner to the img directory.

Mmh, not sure, Eminent Domain has a different background.

Ah true, you are right - I haven't played that yet. Was just thinking back to their previous thoughts on the matter (although it seems this is quite old now!): https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewto ... und#p39230

Will you remove the wooden background?

We don't know yet.

This background looks "amateur", we know that. But BGA was an amateur website during a long period of time, and even since we have gone "professional" we are trying to keep in touch with te original "spirit" of the service
