what happened to the big whinge about the banner a while ago and all that time wasted sending in photos ?? then for the person that spent the time editing and uploading etc etc????

this banner should be rotated automatically so when the page is refreshed another banner opens up.
so many members,so many hot vdubs...... and one banner....:duh:

nothing against you ausgolfer,,your mk2 rocks!

11-12-2008, 07:26 PM
I liked it when there was a different one every week, i'd prefer a different one every day but i don't think it can be done automatically/easily ??

Yeah, alot of nice cars here now, maybe some of you guys should post pics that could be used ...

I think only Static has access to change it.

gpk_gti
11-12-2008, 07:33 PM

there must be a programme or box to click that would alter it automatically..how do other sites do it????

OEM G60
11-12-2008, 07:44 PM
Yeah lets post pics again, there are more members, more cars, and more cars have been modded and looking good now since the last lot.

I think the format of this forum is not quite up to that, not sure? The UK Corrado forum changes banner everyday.

gpk_gti
11-12-2008, 07:52 PM
we have a huge amount of hot vdubs here and a great many amount of new and old members. the last time this was a issue,alot of ppl wasted alot of time posting and chasing hot shots,,, what ended up being used? and in the 7 or so months the banner has changed ,how many different MEMBERS cars have been on the banner?

I agree with you carpoid that there are many new members with even hotter cars than some older members,but if we are to start this over again,then the banner should change regularly and not left,making ppl feel that their time was wasted .

Golf Loon
11-12-2008, 08:00 PM
So post us your pics then, but edited ones in a banner format, be creative. Otherwise it just turns into a pic post thread and we have to make that into banners.

There is an issue with the forum software changing the banner automatically, but a bigger problem was the time taken to turn photos into banners the right size.

Thus if you are keen, lets see some designs you guys.

If we get ten good ones, I reckon Admin can cope with the rotation manually if we cant do it any other way.

I have added in some more images from the suggestions, I have also added a new style for those who don't like the rotating banner, it's the same visual style without the rotation.

I have also had to remove the DubDub003 style since it isn't compliant with the version of vBulletin we run and was causing a few minor issues. If I can sort those out I will bring it back.

There's another MK1 and a beetle in the Garage! :rolleyes:

I should line them all up one day for a photo shoot.

If someone feels like making a banner out of that shot I'd be honoured.

We will need a higher res version of it to be usable on the site, the banner dimensions are 800x170px so to trim the image up to be usable we will often need a higher res version.

Whats with the new banners? Some are pretty lame..... 2 of one car(silver mk3 with front badge missing??)......A VR6 engine bay(although pretty clean, still not the nicest thing to look at)?? A shot of a VW badge but nothing else and half the shot wasted?? Cruis shots with a Hyaundai and falcon...nice??

Honestly..... They were better in the last round, not just saying that because my car used to be in them.

The only new one that "I" like is the one of the poorly lit corrado. Otherwise all the new ones are Cac IMO....

Edit* the mk2 one with the water/mountain background is nice IMO ;)

then get in touch with your creative side and make some!

At the end of the day the reason the ones that are there now are there are because someone went to the trouble to make them to fit the new format.

Oh look, here is a thread in the general section with an email address to send user created banners to. Also included are sizes, file formats, guidelines and the logo for you to follow and use. Send them through and they'll get rotating. We had stacks by the end of last year and there's no reason we can't have lots more with any type of Watercooled VW.

As I said earlier, if you want a banner made up but dont have the skills/nohow/programs/patience then send me some pics (suitable size/res/composition) and I will make them up.
I made up a heap from pics I have and have been given, just to get the ball rolling, be great to see a heap more up there or newer and older VAG.
