New IPB4 skin preview

Oh yes I do like the Mr Skizzer effort. Personally I think the "autoshite Your Motoring is our Concern" should remain the same but I do like to idea of some shonky old motors in there too.

That looks gr9

27,786 · July 3, 2016

10 points to Skizzer I think! Not entirely convinced by the SD1 and XJS; Sierra Base and Regata might be closer to the truth, but a very pleasing graphic even so.

22,159 · July 3, 2016

Is it possible to have a line/grid of side profiles (like that of Conrad's P6 in Skizzer's image) of AS (users?) cars with the AS logo over the top/in the middle?

something like this (example of structure):

I deffo think it should feature the Sierra Base of ultimate shiteness and another vote for the SVM Council Estate

I hear you, Brother Ramrod. Happy to do this (and the Council Estate) if people like this style. I might also turn the BX into the blue estate AS bike.

If you can finalse the desired design i can get it to the skin designer along with any instructions.

27,997 · July 3, 2016

Yeah, I wasn't saying leave the forum software alone - I know that needs updating.

It was the logo I was saying should be treated in the Autoshite way, which is to leave it alone whilst all around is being replaced and refreshed.

I really like the Skizzer one.

Is it possible to do a few different ones, and call it as a script rather than a picture so it loads a random one out of a handful so you get different cars each time?

12,574 · July 3, 2016

keep the old logo, add some oily spots and a few scratches to it if you like, but keep it.

7,218 · July 3, 2016

shirley it should be a kettle series/lagooooona with open bonnet?

7,218 · July 3, 2016

How about this?

This is a .png file but the original is done with vector graphics so I can resize it, change the background colour, whatever.

Different cars (or colours) available on request.

maybe a puddle of oil under the bl chod and green blood under the bx?

28,535 · July 3, 2016

OK, here's version 2.

I like the idea of changing it from time to time, so we can do refreshed versions with different cars and stuff when we get around to it.

DaveB - I'll send you over some files tomorrow, or you can just scrape this down (http://www.toonacy.com/thumbnails/2016/7/3/Cartoon_133_autoshitecom-header.png)

^ Even has the blue plastic on the SIERRABASE number plate. Love the attention to detail!

8,937 · July 3, 2016

Skizzer, that is 154,000,000/10 for brilliance. That is bloody spot on

32,100 · July 3, 2016

Good effort Martin, i really like that!

56,130 · July 3, 2016

Skizzer for deputy prime minister . 14 out of number 10.

22,737 · July 4, 2016

Okay, so let me get this right

What you mean is it looks same but the forum now starts every morning. Even if it's rained the night before?

I don't know if I trust that. You'll want to keep them jump leads, mark my words.

Fuel injection, psh. It'll never catch on. I know a bloke what bought himself one like that, 'ee ain't never had so much trouble before then. Yeah, another pint of bitter before I go home, landlord

I am honoured that the Council Estate is deemed worthy to appear with the Buttery Biscuit Base on the new headery thing.

I am going crazy or did skizzers banner appear at the top for a few seconds? (On the front page not this thread)

Just sent this to Sherri at ibtheme.

Wih new logo sample attached.

Morning Sherri,
Wonder if you might want to have a quick read of this thread on my board where skin is being discussed.
http://autoshite.com/topic/25066-new-ipb4-skin-preview/

1/ Can we somehow have the "shineyness" of the skin turned down a tad
2/ Yeah it looks a bit too 'new' and a bit American for me...
Think it needs to be a bit more retro, and the autoshite name is just plain wrong! It should be the current orange one, or autoshite in a muddy tyre print as if its the tread. And it should be rusty at the bottom or something...
3/ You might need to explain to the developer that the reason you are paying for a custom skin is that you don't want the board to look new and shiny. Normal people seem to find this a difficult concept to understand
Can you please do something with this logo/header on plain header as original forum


Maany Thanks
Mike

Is there enough room in there for the big yellow bus of much Shitefest wowness? Lol

That looks the fucking tits

Version 2 is BOB ON! Though Volvo 740 estates have higher rooflines than that if I'm being really twattish. And it appears I am. Sorry.

Or maybe they don't now I look at them. Hmmm. I think I need a lie down...

8,937 · July 4, 2016

The added puddle of Spock's blood under the Autoshite bike makes it even more WINNAR

28,535 · July 4, 2016

Yup, deffo in the pipeline. The Samara of much legend needs to feature too, and the beige wedge, and...and...I can see us having a few different versions and switching between them periodically.

A teeny bit higher, I think. The Council Estate needs a bit of tweaking generally aft of the A-pillar - it's not quite giving me essence of Volvo yet.

7,218 · July 4, 2016

^^^ and while we're at it the sierror is too shiny.......this place etc

28,535 · July 5, 2016

Bus level achieved.

(It's been a slow day at work.)

7,218 · July 5, 2016

about 5 of them in rotation would be somewhat cool

6,270 · July 5, 2016

Top deck window is a bit squint. Don't remember hitting THAT many trees on the way down the lane! Hahahaha. Great effort though

23,744 · July 5, 2016

These are awesome Skizzer! No idea how you do then but they're great!

And Daveb/Mike (whatever your real name may be) thanks for passing our comments on to the designers, much appreciated!!

23,744 · July 6, 2016

I'm thinking maybe could the be a version with an MX5 in? There's a few of us on here with one, me, CavCraft, gm, newPOD, xtriple maybe more!

Just a thought... ðŸ˜Š
