CT Tournament Layout WIP

Almost done with graphics, 90% done. Red lines indicate 1024 space.

Probably would've turned out a bit different but this was made according to specific instructions by the client, Chaos Tactics gaming tournament:

Dark grungy layout (sure..)
Blacks, grays, and fire/smoke/orange highlights (sure..)
Utilize sniper scope as focus of the site (harder then I thought)
Incorporate tournament's existing circular scope logo (only possible use I could think of was a login panel)

Header is going to change a bit, but this piece will be replaced once the final version in HTML/Flash is up.

My solution to their request was this:

The header will scope in on a backdrop for each page, and clicking each Navigation link/page will cause the scope header to "pan over" to another location/background, as if the sniper is actually turning on a 360 degree stance.

Completion time: 5/25/08

Made in Photoshop CS3

Feel free to comment if you wish, although am probably already aware of some of the most noticeable things which will be tweaked out for the live version.
