If that is the case, and want to stick with the Cyborg design. Would this one work? I don't know much about these templates. or can the background color be changed of the "dark" version?

I'm no pro at this either, but I think if we can come up with a template, our graphics guys can tweak the colors to come up with a color scheme that works best for all.

I've sent the link to this thread to our graphics team, they're really very good at the creative thing.

They can't start on this project until next year.

Does the new version include thread preview (mouse over the thread title and you get the first few sentences in that thread) and the edit function that stays on the same page?

Both these features are very handy... more so for the "Quick reply".

One more thing, could another photo gallery for just your vehicle be added? Similar to other sites, my gallery is filled with other vehicles/stuff I have worked on, might be nice to have an area just for your vehicle.

I agree, the Cyborg-Dark looks pretty cool,

How about the Cyborg-Dark tweaked to incorporate some Meguiar's colors?

Take these colors and add them to the Cyborg-Dark design?

I like it, I like it..........


Mike,

How hard is vbulletin to deal with. I work on a site that is set up with an older version of Php and pretty much hate it.

Yep plus more.

Just hacked away for a little bit at it....
It's not perfect, and the tops needs to be better, BTW this is a photochop version...

[Desertdawg]

I should have looked at it better before I posted it...
It's now pink...

[Mike Phillips]

I think that's looking pretty good, at least it's a good start. I sent the link to this thread to our graphics guy and I'm sure he'll look at this thread and your concept idea and draw from it at a minimum.




By the way, what skin is the above one?

[Desertdawg]

Its a sort of combo of the cyborg skin and the Meguiar's RX page that you posted on page 2 of this thread...

Let me know if you want me to hack at it again...

Thanks for the ideas everyone! Now that everyone is back from vacation we are moving forward with updating MOL.

I gotta say I like this color.. not to bright, good contrast, easy to read.

I just dont know about some of the ideas, they seem a bit too all-black, or just gray and white.. I dont know if that is as pleasant to read, and friendly feeling.

One more thing... how about adding a link to www.meguiarsonline.info similar to the www.meguiars.com link currently at the top of the main page.

Maybe a thought..but why don`t we add the most beautiful skins in the directory so users can pick one they like i saw some great creations here.

Thanks Witwit,

This is a great suggestion and something I was planning on asking for. Once the graphics guys get the skin thing down, perhaps once in a while they can churn out a new one and will upload it for our members to decide for themselves.
