Blue with orange is a great idea. They look awesome together.
larryinc64:
I was considering a Blue with Orange highlights color scheme, But left it orange, I may make a second cleaner mockup, and I'll see how that works.

On the topic of Cover Uploads, I think we need to change it as well, It seems like a very slow process, I uploaded a couple, few made it on, and the ones that did went up a long time after I submitted them. I posted a bunch of my 3DS covers a while ago and nothing happened yet. If there are problems, how does the cover maker know? I'm unsure if they were rejected or still pending. Also THIS COVER belongs HERE.
Also put somewhere MORE COVERS AVAILABLE IN THE FORUMS.
AxelSteelBMX:
I'd like to echo Larry's sentiments; a glimpse into the selection process would be nice, or something. I've uploaded a number of covers that I thought were really good but still haven't appeared on the site, and then sometimes I'll see something get uploaded to the forums and then basically immediately uploaded to the site proper the next day, if not within hours. It's really disheartening to see (even though I know it's not personal), especially when I have no idea why my covers never get posted because I'm never told what's wrong with them or how I can improve them, or even if there's nothing wrong with them but they're at the end of a long queue.
Perhaps some kind of feedback system could be implemented where the person who submits the cover gets an "anonymous" response from the Admin team (ie: sender unknown on the user's end, but logs kept on the Admin's end) letting them know the status of their submission. If it's been rejected, the person should know why so they can try to fix the problem. If it's been accepted, a simple heads-up would suffice.
Just my thoughts.
Maben:
I too agree that covers should get uploaded and be available in some kind of searchable and downloadable form before they are "approved". Such covers could be in a separate area or be clearly marked, but this would be invaluable for people like me who don't need a perfect cover, or for others who are really good at touching up unfinished covers.
