Now that we have a weekly poll (thanks @[email protected] for extending that over from the lemmy.world instance), I'd be happy to update our banner weekly with the results.
I made a few mockups in Photoshop with the preseason AP rankings and would like the community's input. Because web/mobile/app clients display it differently and often superimpose the community icon either in the bottom left or center, the design parameters are kind of tricky.
Option 1:
I feel this one balances a clean layout with a fresh look.
Option 2:
This is the most straightforward, but also most reminiscent of r/cfb. I personally would rather not directly rip off their look, but if a one-to-one replacement is what the community wants, this is the closest.
Option 3:
A whole 25 teams gets cluttered, but the result is kind of interesting. Couldn't really fit the ranking numbers though.
I'm of course open to other suggestions as well. I thought about trying out different end zone ideas, such as the old-school diagonal lines, but kept it simpler for now.
I would maybe actually vote option 1, but with a super meek voice. I think any of these would be great. And if everybody else wants 2 or 3 I certainly wouldn't object.
Edit: Also as far as endzones go, maybe that's the part of the design that we mockup for the #1 team, that way we can have a way to distinguish ourselves from r/cfb
