Wow... that looks damn good..
Id like something a little different to that though.. let me give some ideas...

I like the map image being on there LOTS

Id like some text suggesting we remap/tune/build etc etc

Also maybe use similar font to my website?

Too much of my boring looking saff in that particular one for "my personal" taste

Sorry to be so critical after your hard work
But i guess someone had to go first.. i always make sure its never me for that very reason


PS:
Heres my website too incase it gives ideas... www.remapping.co.uk

Aww guys!

Gus and pikey - no sorry. Reason I ain't done any gif sigs on here is because they are incredibly hard to keep below the 25kb limit impossed on sigs. To do it they hav to be VERY small and the colour is very poor quality... Pike - got your PM will have a bash at a sig for you soon mate, but will be static for reasons outlined above

Agreed that Matts is fantastic but given we have a 25k siggy limit i fear its not actually going to be possible to use it

However.. maybe if i have a banner as well we can have 2 prizes

Stu, get pet to come up with a clever bit of HTML/Javascript which randomly chooses one of the four
Come to think of it, I might be able to help if you are interested.

Stu, personally I'd have a mix, of the four lined up.

I'd have the grey band with the logo in from Thrush's design, add services in the rest if the band in a simple clear type face, uses the blue clocks and add the ford badge the saff and tinted 3d graph to build a montage and knock it all back in a blue and black tint so it's still strong but not to over powering, then add boxes as in noks idea, where he put the saff I would place an image of a n engine (out of the car). In the boxes I would show the items you want to promote, Engine bay, track car (more of a statement about performance), a mapping session and perhaps a motor on the road (showing work is carried out on private road cars). Then have a grey band along the bottom that has you details (address and tel number).

Matt

Sounds damn cool to me....

Ive decided that we will have a banner compo too...

So a siggy that follows:
550 x 150 and max size of 25k

And a banner that follows:
468 * 60 and max size of 100K

Closing date will be when i cant wait any longer
