Change background #6

Closed krrisis closed 5 years ago

krrisis commented 5 years ago

Just talked with kay, loie, griff etc We think the background is cool but we prefer something slightly less.. psychedelic :) but NOT corporate ofc

Proposal: could you come up with a static background that brings back some of the color coding of the carrot?

FYI: don't put tooo much time in it, bcs that research group from the other max is working on a logo & house style. (just might still take some time - so this is for in the meantime)

@krrisis check now

krrisis commented 5 years ago

Really like this - perfect until the new logo is ready to be implemented!

loietaylor commented 5 years ago

let's color match the background to the new logo!

@lorelei1 better now?

krrisis commented 5 years ago

Tbh I preferred how it was, it was more subtle, less 'intense' and I don't think the colors were so out of sync. Do you happen to have something that resembles what was there but then in blue/green? If not I think you can stick with what's there currently. Checked with @lorelei1 and she concurs :)

krrisis commented 5 years ago

Ps. on mobile it does not work, so prob best to check what the best - fixed background could be on mobile

MaxSemenchuk commented 5 years ago

added static pic for mobile

krrisis commented 5 years ago

Great for mobile! Did you see the one above? Right now it show wrong in chrome anyways (a strange yt field)

@krrisis can you make a screenshot?

on the background – did you mean orange dots animation? You just want it recolored to blue/green?

krrisis commented 5 years ago

It might be a cache thing, see screenshot below. In incognito mode I see it correctly. Just wanted to flag it - but seems just me.

Re: Background, yes, the previous one, these dots bumping around lower in the animation, not so 'present' (bit distracting). Recoloring would be perfect!

By the way Max, personally I wouldn't mind to just have a dark background on the website if recoloring that vid takes a lot of time. Extra arguments for this 1) it looks good :) 2) on brave browser the background vid does not autoplay. And in our audience we might have some brave browser users... But not a hard opinion on it.

MaxSemenchuk commented 5 years ago

switched to black. Is that what you wanted or smth else?

krrisis commented 5 years ago

I like it. More focus on the logo, more powerful/robust.

krrisis commented 5 years ago

approved by the others as well in the call!
