Hey, me and my friend were wanting to start making some custom faceplates, the only problem is that we dont have much good ideas. If you have any good faceplate ideas, please let us know.

Seriously?
There are two thousand faceplates in the database. Look at them all, and if you don't think of anything, it's probably not your thing. Just a hunch.
Yea i know, and we have some ideas, and i dont want to copy anything. But i just wanted to see what you guys thought would be good ideas.
Bubbles!
one thing that would personally interst me would be a black faceplate with the ring from LotR around the power button, just a personal idea.
We can try that! I really like that idea! :)Quote:

keep in mind it would have to be small, or if you had a yellow power light a small inscription of that would be cool going around it inside the ring.
maybe putting some smoke coming off the wording, ring, or both but i think a nice grey smoke would compliment it well on a black faceplate.
+1 :)Quote:

Ultimately, go for what you like to do, hobbies, entertainment, music related, etc etc.
edit::: I personally have been trying to come up with a graphitti style "recycle" symbol design with an image of earth on the power button. The Recycle symbol to wrap around the power button on a 3d angle... most in green. Possibly different shots of the continents and make one plate per... i just can't find the time.
Thanks, thats actually a good idea, its something for us to ponder.Quote:

Skyrim - black with the title and logo.
Bioshock Infinite - something patriotic with the logo. I'm nuts, though, so I might even have skyrails in 3D on the front of mine.
Mass Effect 3- Reapers attacking Earth. Maybe earth on the power button and Reapers in a corona-like shape around it like they are coming in for the first time en masse.
Batman Arkham City with Catwoman.
