: Working on new top logo
SuperGLS 06-10-2010, 05:41 PM There's been a lot of people wanting the COTM winner back in the top logo of the site so today I've been working on that. Please let me know what you think so far.
Right now I have a biggish EXD logo on the left and an Elantra on the right. I don't know if I want it "stuck" below the navbar or if I want the whole car visible or maybe some other touch of white (or navbar blue).
It's also a bit difficult to get it to stay where I want it when you change the size of the browser window. If people with Firefox, IE, Chrome, etc can post some pictures and screen resolutions that would be helpful.
ehhh...it shows the whole car off to the right of the huge EXD lettering...Looks awkward because of the large amount of space above the EXD logo...and it's all blue...
Would you be able to merge the COTM pic behind the EXD logo? or into it? kinda make the EXD logo transparent?
SuperGLS 06-10-2010, 06:14 PM Vex, can you put together a rough MS paint version of what you are saying. Just something quick so I can get the idea.
Remember that this has to be something that can easily be changed from month to month with little time and effort involved.
I forgot to tell you i'm using IE...
I can't draw anything up right now, because i'm at work and there's no paint/PS programs (gov't comp.) I guess it would be easy to do what i mean...but now that I think about it, it doesn't seem like a good idea anyways...It takes away from the overall appearance of the COTM winner's car. Let me see if I can find a similar pic online somewhere and post it here.
@ Qyn...guess you don't look at it very often do you? lol
James, how do i save a whole website page? Trying to show you how it looks for me using IE.
Still looking for a pic of what i mean
SuperGLS 06-10-2010, 06:35 PM You have to be on the Default style.
Oh God the default style is hideous. I'll post a screencap from FF in a sec.
LeShadow 06-10-2010, 06:43 PM Firefox 1024X768...
Looks good. I see the car of november (i think), and i lose half of the rear wheel.

In the bottom of the page, u have the possibility to change style of EXD...
SuperGLS 06-10-2010, 06:53 PM Andre, you are seeing it like it should be. Good. Now, what do you think?

^ that's how i see mine, james!
SuperGLS 06-10-2010, 07:02 PM So we think the EXD logo is a bit too big (too long)???
slyderdai 06-10-2010, 07:50 PM Reduce The EXD logo by like 75% James that is HUGE! Then put the Car behind it at like 90% transparency.
casale 06-10-2010, 07:58 PM I think the logo is a bit too big. The car over on the right looks kinda lost.
May I suggest connecting it to the logo somehow, as in a small overlap?

SuperGLS 06-10-2010, 08:09 PM I like that first one a bit better than the second (like having the logo "attached" to one of the sides). Good job casale.
Take a look now. Some of the ideas put to use.
slyderdai 06-10-2010, 08:26 PM HAhahaha keep it like that!
Make EXD logo smaller James
slyder...that's what i was trying to say...but i like casale's idea too..hmm...right now i see 3 cars all over the logo, and the logo is still HUGE..lol
LeShadow 06-10-2010, 09:14 PM I like the first pic submitted by Casale... the one with the car almost in the center of the page
James fails at customization. 3 copies of COTM... and I like the 2nd Casale idea.
songee623 06-10-2010, 09:49 PM i like the two that Casale made they both look good.
smileymattj 06-10-2010, 09:52 PM I like the one where you see 3 of the same car. It makes you think there is something wrong, but there isn't! LOL
LeShadow 06-10-2010, 09:58 PM heheheheh
songee623 06-10-2010, 10:09 PM i thoght i was having a flash back untill i changed the style.

SuperGLS 06-10-2010, 10:49 PM The idea I put up all three is so that people can see options and tell me what they like.
I think the car next to the "D" is the best option and shouldn't be too much work for me.
The one with the car on the D is good, but it's pushing the notifications tab into the "My profile" tab...top right corner...it's smooshing the letters together.
SuperGLS 06-11-2010, 12:57 AM What version IE? What is the screen resolution? Can't make the window bigger?
Anyone else having a similar issue?
i dont have any issues and im diggin the current
SuperGLS 06-12-2010, 05:22 PM I just made a few changes to it so there's not so much space at the top and also so the shadow of the car doesn't get cut off.
SuperGLS 06-13-2010, 01:23 PM Since I was bored I made the logo change for the gray styles as well (Orange Crush, Green Machine and Midnight Blue). Enjoy.
songee623 06-13-2010, 01:41 PM that makes two us i dont see it either.
LeShadow 06-13-2010, 02:25 PM Ahhhhhhh !!!!!!
Now u speak my friend !!!
Only thing left woul be to put the June winner !
:D
SuperGLS 06-13-2010, 02:48 PM Not on Grey Gremlin, which is officially a black style, not a gray style.
songee623 06-13-2010, 05:38 PM ohh then thats why i saw it under the other colors and not gray gremlin.
casale 06-16-2010, 02:19 PM Under the default style, I'm still seeing the gold car w/ the chrome wheels. Where's LeShadow?
SuperGLS 06-16-2010, 07:30 PM Remember what I PM'd you about? Yeah. If you have the cleaned up car you did for your mock ups then send it to me and I'll get him up there.
casale 06-16-2010, 07:32 PM Ohhh. I gotcha. Comin' right up. Hey LeShadow, you don't mind if I photoshop a ridiculous wing onto your trunk, right? Good. :0)
LeShadow 06-16-2010, 07:56 PM Ohhh. I gotcha. Comin' right up. Hey LeShadow, you don't mind if I photoshop a ridiculous wing onto your trunk, right? Good. :0)
Have fun !!!!!
