Title: So, someone should do a custom Evilbore PS3 theme
Post by: Bloodwake on November 10, 2007, 08:41:46 PM

I currently have the NeoGAF one, but I know where my true loyalties lie, and to be honest, I don't have the time and possibly don't have the skills to currently do it myself.

Someone should DO IT.

We should make a giant image of something that everyone (or majority) of the board contributes to. It can be a joke, it can be thought-out and well-made, but nobody can overlap/vandalize another's, but branch off it.

And something probably safe for work, so we dont have gigantic dickballs hanging on our 1080p screens
