We have two customizable images we can set in Tapatalk, if anyone wants to make them look better the specs are as follows.
Forum Log (main icon that appears in the app)
PNG or JPG file with a minimum resolution of 196 x 144
Header Photo (fills in the top of the screen behind the logo)
PNG or JPG file with a minimum resolution of 640 x 360
P.S.: If you saw ads in the app in the last day or so it is because our profile got reset, I should have all the ads in app suppressed again.
I've wanted to make a new logo / banner for a while
Are there example files that Tapatalk has?
The attached image shows what the up coming home page will look like in the app (not sure when if this will be supported for SMF forums for sure).
You can see the DROID is the logo square and behind it at the top is the background image, similar to how Facebook and now LinkedIn have a background image.
I should probably dig up the logo and image specs for the current SMF desktop theme so a matching set could be made.
Thanks!
Thoughts?
Concept 1:
Button logo: like a shield, gold letters RW with a sword in between
Background: Epic fantasy battle (option 1: cloudy day, option 2: fiery night)
Concept 2:
Button logo: Minimalist primary colour letters
Background: Geometric shapes in light tones
Concept 1, definitely!
They have updated the iOS app.
This is what the home screen for our forum currently looks like on iOS
With everything else goin' on I forgot all about this
That's OK, the background being displayed is not the one I actually have set in the Admin screen so I am not sure what is up.
I also posted to the other Tapatalk thread since they have totally reworked navigation AGAIN!
New Logo concept
I checked the standard for Tapatalk, max is 3000x3000, cookied this baby up (finally) in prep for Discord server logo.

Feedback welcome.
Looks good to me... should see what it looks like as a favico so we can use for website too.

Right on man, I'll get to work on a tapatalk header too while I'm doin' this
I have some ideas...
I like that logo, I like that a lot. Nice detail on the letter outlining. Have to see what it looks like shrunken down, but if you've got a high-res image like this to start with then it usually looks good smaller, too.
Excellent work, sir! Me likey a lot! Stirs up a feeling of strength and fun somehow.

The only thing I'm not 100% sure will read at a smaller size is the R, in which case I will fill its background.
I tried to keep it simple, making a logo that "reads" when small is hard.
