Title: New Board
Post by: WhiteNoise on Mar 22, 2019, 05:23
Hey all!

We've just added a new No Geography board for discussing the new album!

Sorry for the late updates - things seem to get busy in all corners of the world.

We'll be making a total overhaul of the forum's theme to coincide with the album's release.

Additionally, we've just created Music: Response, out of the old Born in the Echoes forum. This will be a place for discussing any Chems music older than the current / upcoming new release - in the far future when No Geography is old hat, we'll move its topics here too.

Feel free to start any topics about the back catalog here!

The cloud face? We did try and it does not look good as a single color icon.

Certain long time Chems fans will recognize the current icon...

Great choice. Always been one of my favourite singles covers, yet somehow I've still never come across the 12".. One day!

Uhm. I don't think it's from a single cover - it is from Tom's t-shirt. I believe 07/08 tour he did wore it sometimes.

Oh shoot! I figured it was just the Star Guitar cover. Anyone have a photo of the t-shirt?

Oooh that one! I thought we were talking about the new one for this board! The No Geography one is a nice deep reference

I think Conn6or meant an MAH mask. Which isn't a bad call IMHO.

Oh yeah!

Actually, that for a new live-shows icon? The glasses were more of a 2011 thing.

I'm liking Stephan's suggestion of Robots for Live...

Yeah. Maybe with a bit more torso? The old 2016 tour poster with Robots is still in the merch store (https://merch.thechemicalbrothers.com/products/december-2016-tour-poster) for possible inspiration...

I kinda of like csar's pic but the face should turn at a angle slightly!

Oh and I like the changes so far! Good on you guys for the music response section!

Looks cool, I like it!

Edit: I made two versions of your robot. One regular and one turned at an angle (but I don't know if that's what you meant, InChem).

heres an attachment for context. shoulve posted it earlier. its only a suggestion because I wanted you to see if you would want an extra option for choosing the new graphic. I do like the first and  second graphic of your last post. very clean looking btw!

Thanks for that pic. Let's see what we can do. I'm not that gifted with graphics, the 2D versions are rather simple to do, so there's nothing much to it. I only have an old now-license free CS2 photoshop version that constantly drives me nuts. But I'll give it a go.

Edit: A quick approach for the 3D robot and the horse Stefan mentioned.

Post by: Stefan on Mar 27, 2019, 22:02
Yay, that's what I was thinking of! Of the robot, I'd prefer the first one in the post directly above.

I've been saying this to anyone who will listen for years. No one believes me.

Thank you for coming out here and giving it another voice. We need more people standing up and doing what's right.
