Default Do you want a Banner for your Signature...

Bring something back from the dead...

If you want a Signature Banner for any forum or anything you use, I will make you one. I have made several for other forum members. The process normally takes me a couple hours to do. But depending on how much busy my work schedule is, it may take a day or 2 for me to get it back to you.

Just do the following and I will get start as soon as I can.

Send me a PM, and I will respond with my email address.
1. When you send me the email, I will need the following:
2. Desired photo of you car(s)...the better the image quailty, the easier it is to work with. Over 5mp is prefered.
3. Any design or text ideas you would like me to work in there. i.e, your username, the car name, wreath and crest, wreath and skull, etc.
That is all...

You will get the signature sized image (500x150 pixels) and the full resolution banner. Full sized will be 3000x900 or 2000x600 pixels, depending on the size of images inserted (stretching small images will cause the image to distort).

I can also make you a custom Avatars, if you would like one too.

it is a little stretched out, and i can fix (i hope)...i am working on getting things sized right. its pretty hard when work with photos that are 4/3 aspect, and the sig pic requires 2.67/1 (8/3). but i am sure with tweaking, it will look better.

Edit: and size limit of 500x150 pixels makes it harder too, haha.

In order to make it look good, you'd have to shrink the size of the entire layer all together and not just the background. This will shorten the width of the picture dramatically.

I think it looks pretty douchey....ahahaaaaa...Just kidding Cole, I noticed you had changed it on another post. I like the way it looks, I'd like similar just without the gold.....maybe a transparent silver or grey. If you hook me up, I'll send you a Roll Tide t-shirt to replace those God-forsaken Horrid Hookem' Horns ones you have.

I don't understand the C6R Jake skull but that's just me. It has no relevance to the cts-v

This is what I meant, the pic is stretched way too far so you resize the layer to an acceptable level while keeping the background within the size restriction.



You can either fill the background with the same color as the forum so it blends or setup a background shot of something.

lets see...

#1 are cars came from the GMPD.
#2 the have LS6 (04-05) and LS2 (06-07) from the Vette
#3 the CTS-VR is made by the same people that do the C6R.

there is a connection in the fact that we are a Corvette drive train wrapped in a Cadillac. i wrapped the Jake Skull in the Cadillac Wreath, i.e Corvette Wrapped in Cadillac.

go for it...there are some great pics of your V in the pic thread, so i can pull some from there. i will make a couple, all i need is an idea of how you want it to look (ie, colors) and i will throw it together.

Bama, i am sending you a PM.
