HAHA funny one Al. :)

Well i have decided that im against the warrior skin now due to it having a few draw backs.

I have now found a new skin called Esquire which i have applied with a temporay logo and picture to see how it goes for a while.

I didnt think this skin was too bad for looks and presentation wise. The benifts were...

1. The website is much more brighter to view and read. Everything is very clear to see apart from a couple of things like fonts and colours for text that just need to be simply changed.

2. The website loads much quicker than the warrior skin.

3. The board is full screen.

4. The skin is more flexable to work with (Well so far)

So for at the moment Esquire is the default skin for the board. Let me know what you think guys. I hope you like it.

Sorry Brett, but I'm not a fan. I find it waaaaaay too bright, which is making it harder to read. Layout wise its good, but the white isnt working. Maybe black of dark grey? Should work well with the blue. Everything else seems fine.

Turn the brightness down on your screen :P

This skin is perfect i think. I didn't like the dark background because it messes with the emoticons and stuff... This skin all works fine, isn't too bright for me, and i like the photo in the background just being that little strip rather than the full page

I agree with martin. The photo being a litlle strip does look better. I thought about creating a new photo strip with a new logo to suit so it matches.

I sorta agree with you there Rhys. It would be nice to have it slightly darker. Might play around with the settings later and see what it looks like.

Cheers for letting me know guys. I need responce back of everyone thinks of it.

So far everything seems to work better with the skin so... :thumbsup:

Just as a sort of suggestion Brett, do you have any other pictures that you could put in the strip? That one is a good one because they are all in a line, but 7 out of the 8 cars are Skylines... You probably know what i'm getting at

All the cars are Skylines? 5 32s, 2 33s, and Alix's 31.

Plus 9/10 cars in this club are Skylines anyway. We'll be changing the photo after the Photography Cruise though.

Oh really, that's a 31 lol. My bad... Front bar put me off, never seen one like that before.

That's the thing though, this club isn't meant to be all about one sort of car... Kind of gives people that are checking out the website for the first time the wrong impression. Anyway i'm just thinking out loud, just something that crossed my mind the first time i saw the picture

They make good bases, yes. They're cheap, yes. They make good race cars, yes. They're butt ugly, yes.

No way, Walker's car is epic sexy! Favourite 31 apart from Nick's car, [DCEIVE] http://media.photobu...11072008002.jpg

Ok, 1) that's a horrible photo of Nick's car! And 2) DCEIVE is a JDM not ADM so that doesn't count. Stock ADM are fugly.

Also, my mate is best mates with Nick. They built their cars together, 31 and 32. Love both those cars... Can't wait until my mates DR30 is finished, around the end of the year.

Exactly, his car doesn't count so Walker's is my favourite 31 :D

Yeah that's true. It kinda left the path a long way, then started walking in circles and got very, very lost...

Unfortunately the majority of our members at present own skylines, we cant do much about that, and the vote was that we use our members cars in the logo (banner). I dont think it really matters what cars we have, the fact is it shows us out and about with our cars. :thumbsup:
We also have the 4x4 section too and photos of the 4x4s would be awsome. Brett was talking about making the top picture into a photo slide show type deal which I think would be awsome and would show the different sections of vehicles.

Its the little things in life that count.
