That's a sick idea. I don't have the skills either, but damn I like it.

what do you guys think?
yeah, i hear what you're saying, especially when look at it from a designer's perspective, the above banner looks like junk... and the typeface chosen for "CBRforum" seems like any high school kids w/ no real graphic design education can do it... it's a forum for cbr, at least give us a feeling of "speed", it doesn't feel fast at all... the only feeling that i get is "artificial" and the shadows of the bike made it seem like it's going backward instead... the background is like whatever...

i hesitated a little to make sure i was in the right forum when i first saw the banner... it really doesn't seem professional enough, and the reason i care cause this forum represents us as the cbr riders, and i wish it'd be a little more professional...

That would be cool, but the issue with that is how many models there are. I know it's a 1krr up there now, but to show the morphing of one model seems less "right" to me. (if that makes sense). And if you tried to use all the models, it would get messy and busy real quick, me thinks....

I honestly don't mind the way it is now.

It's a good thing you annoyed me enough to check your post history.
First you complain about the sales rules in the official rules thread....THEN you post 2 for sale ads inside other people's threads.... then you come here and bash the site designers.

Enjoy your "time out".

And for the record, we don't care what you think of the rules or the site.

Your behavior doesn't seem professional enough, and I don't like the way it represents us CBR riders.
