It would be nice to easily connect a screen name and a real name with the same user when they post, rather than having to refer to the list that we're all adding our names and screen names to in that one thread on here...

It should probably be the first line under the Avatar picture, a line that just says "Name: Troy" just above the "Join Date:" line. That would be a very helpful addition if it is possible to set that up...

Bryan, I know you're working on the name below the avatar thing. Any progress? It would sure be easier to respond to other members posts without having to go to "Who's Who?" all the time. Although it has served it's purpose well.

Cylon_xD 07-07-2009 03:12 PM

yeah, it should definitely be possible on here , it appears this forum uses the same software engine that Scikotics does, and they have a name field setup in the user tags... names would really be a nice thing on here...

Shaggy 07-10-2009 01:55 AM

I am having issues trying to find out how to set that up. I keep thinking I have it, but then it doesn't work. I will get it soon :p

Cylon_xD 07-10-2009 04:14 PM

Hey, thanks for your efforts so far there, Shaggy! We all really appreciate it!

Shaggy 07-10-2009 07:31 PM

I think its a mod that I need to install. I will keep you posted. I like to also see your names and it makes it more of a personal site then just calling each other by our user names. :p

TheLittleDeviant 07-16-2009 02:57 PM

How about decals for the site? eta?
I for one would like a new sticker or two :P

SciFion 07-16-2009 05:24 PM

I dont know about stickers, but if there is a design available I would sport it in vinyl. I have a friend that does anything in vinyl graphics, and could get them made up.

Maybe we could have a contest to come up with some cool designs and select the best one. I am not sure what the computer program is called, but have seen some awesome designs for Scikotic stuff. Anyone?

Shaggy 07-16-2009 05:30 PM

Sci, what is vinyl? Is that a different type of decal? If you have a friend that does it, how much does it cost to get one made up?

SciFion 07-16-2009 07:02 PM

Vinyl graphics are a higher quality way of displaying an image or whatever on any given suface, ie, a car window etc. A "sticker" usually has the the image, logo, or print on a single rectangular piece, you peel away the backing and stick it on to some surface. Think bumper sticker.

With vinyl, it has "backing material" on front and back. You peel away the back part and locate the graphic where you want it, and push it in place by squeegeeing it on. Then you peel off the outer protective layer and you're done. In this way you only see whatever image you want instead of some unwanted background as in a sticker.

I can probably get some made for $5-$10 each, but will need a design to get a quote. Something 7-10 inches long and an inch and a half to two inches high in a single color would be doable at a reasonable cost. If we want multiple colors the price will undoubtedly go up. Stickers can be made for less, but they also look cheaper, and I seriously doubt anyone would want one on their car.

Rip Graphix on the Scikotics forum could also do this and is very reasonable and reliable, with shipping already set up. Again we will need to come up with a logo and decide on size and color/s.

Shaggy 07-16-2009 07:57 PM

I am not a graphix guy so I need someone to make out up. Also, that sounds just like a decal. I am all for making on up, but I need to get someone to make up a logo.

TheLittleDeviant 07-17-2009 09:20 AM

So lets have a design contest.

Bryan post up a design contest and have the members create the logo, then we have a vote for which design we like the best and we use that logo for the vinyls...

Shaggy 07-17-2009 02:26 PM

I might just do that. Do we have any artists here on the forum :p

Chinkylulu 10-16-2009 11:32 AM

not trying to be negative here but we barely have ppl who contrible in this forum. there would probably be like 1-3 members in each region

Chinkylulu 10-21-2009 01:17 AM

yeah that's true... grr i wish things for the xD would start speeding up.

TheLittleDeviant 10-21-2009 09:18 AM

I think its only a matter of time, if we stick to this forum for long enough then we will eventually build a big group.
