  • Brand Usage Guidelines

  • Page Skins
  • Download Templates
  • Aside from the templates, the skin itself should be no wider than 1900 pixels, and should fade to either white (#ffffff) or black (#000000) on both sides, depending on the main colors used in the skin. The absolute max file size should be about 250k, though lower is always better. Make sure to keep any important information (e.g. logo, esrb if needed, etc) within the 1200px that encompasses the main content of the page. Anything outside of that may be cut off on some monitors.
