I just might do that, is that your Commander? and is this permission to use your image?

It's TrialByFire's commander.. if he's fine with it I'm fine with it being used, but it's kind of rough, I think I could do a better job if its actually going to be used.

Let's get his permission first and then see what we can do!

Someone tell me which one to use and I'll work something out. And of course if anyone else likes playing in photoshop maybe we put it up for a vote?

The angles aren't really right, but Knappster do you know what font was used to orginially create the XK part of it? I might be able to work it a little more if I have the font to work with.

I can ask my web guy, He might have made a custom font to meet my request.

IF and I do say "IF" we want to include the WK crowd we will need to keep our eyes out for rig to share the header space. I can throw my Commander in there too if there is space :)

Maybe we will need a Header contest and change it up every 6 or 12 months?

IamJEEP
06-04-2011, 05:23 PM
A rotation would good, that way everyone would have a chance to represent.

Matt
06-04-2011, 06:43 PM
I think a 6 month or yearly rotation would be good. If (IF) we make the site dual hatted, we could do one of each up there for the rotation.

I also think that having a more "aggressive" header pic will catch peoples' attention when they click this site after doing a google search. Ya know... it shows what this site is really about... not just a stock XK photo. Might peak interest to keep looking further into the site.

MAYBE even have the header pic be a link to the voting thread... so you can click the header and see what other pics/nominations were in the running.

LWM
06-06-2011, 04:24 PM
Todd, the guy who designed the current header had an idea...


What about a photo of the Commander driving across the "XK" letters and then if we add the WK we could do matching letters with a built rig on those letters too.

Sal-XK
06-06-2011, 05:19 PM
That sounds interesting

Matt
06-06-2011, 06:18 PM
Sounds like a good idea!

So are we adding the WK's?

LWM

So are we adding the WK's?

I am not sure we ever made a decision one way or the other.

I have nothing against it as long as we don't dilute the Commander interest.

Matt
06-07-2011, 05:50 AM
We're going to need at least 5 active WK members who mod/wheel to make up for the loss of Sal....

Come now.... 5 really? :)


I meant to say... You can never make up for the loss of Sal (or at least his XK), but then I hope he sticks around anyway, he is always welcome.

Using the idea of an XK on the letters, on the left side put an XK climbing the XK letters and the right side have WK climbing WK letters, both pointed toward the middle..

XK/ \WK

Let's face it, he came here because it was a better XK forum. He stayed here because he liked the members.

Don't see you LOL but while looking to see what you're talking about I noticed some things. Pack of new-port 100's did you see the box of 3M 7" floppy's OMG LOL The ancient phone lines you don't see anymore and the awesome wood panels. I can't tell what is on his monitor it looks like a web site but based on the era of the decor and equipment those type of pages didn't exists.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page. On the left hand side click the selection box and choose "black stealth". Its a different color scheme for the website.

There are many options in this forum software, you just have to know how to download them. I am not skilled enough in this area so I hire out that kind of stuff, maybe someday I will have figured out enough to add a few more.

That vB support forum had a lot of good info on it.... but I know you're busy with a few other ventures right now so spending time there probably isn't much of an option. :)

Scroll all the way to the bottom of this page and click on the arrow on the left side of the bottom bar, it will give you a drop down to select Black Stealth and you can see if you like it (Yours currently says "Default").
