The website currently has a simple background color, but I intend to create a dark hex pattern for the pages background. I want gaps between the hexagons that can light up, which will be a merger between the images below.
If these two images had a ByteArray baby, then my background design would be done.
The upper 2/3 of the layout above is actually a transparent div layer that is hiding in front of the background but behind everything else. My plan is to create a hex grid like the one above, and then create the lit pathways as a second image that would lay on top of the hex grid, giving the illusion of them being the same image. The purpose of this being the end-user could then create custom layouts using various colored versions of the overlay and the background. You could change your layout from a light grey grid pattern with teal lighting to a black grid pattern with orange lighting. I am building this site with the intention of using it on a daily basis to follow games that interest me. I want it to be easy to use, and I may want to easily swap to layout with a light background and black text for easier reading. It allows me to use a color scheme that is eye-catching and display it to new visitors, while providing a solution to existing members that is easier on the eyes, especially for reading purposes.
I have just a little time left before I need to start work for tonight, so it's time to fill that layout with the data that I had added last night.
