The front page to the site is awesome, but it is getting a little old.
For those who want to submit them I will get you to send them to my e-mail address.
The pictures will then be resized and posted up anonymously, they will then be voted on by you.
What does the winner get, a free 12 month membership pack to the site.

So is anyone keen?

good work, though

-if you're going alphabetical with the names then shouldn't Calibra be before corsa
-there are members here with opels that you don't have a name for (eg. Combo/Rekford etc.)
-The Arden Blue Astra has a HSV number plate; not exactly Opel.

Yeah that was the font used. People may need to download the font as it's not a standard.

More Recent one done. Will work more on it and send it in later on.
Cheers for the help. Will do more research and hopefully will make it more appealing.

Thanks.

id love to do something but im no good at designing pages.
can i just suggest though, having pics of all opels, so if someone stumbles across the homepage, they will realise "hey the vectra (etc) i have in my garage is an opel"
instead of just seeing an astra only.

good work, though


-The Arden Blue Astra has a HSV number plate; not exactly Opel.

Nor is every Holden Badged Astra Barina Calibra or Any other Opel/ Vauxhall Sourced product Holden have imported. HSV product is just as much an opel Product as the Holden Soruced Products in this country .


Getting back to the topic at hand. Can admin post the designs up for the members to see as the are submitted into a locked thread?

poita
17th January 2009, 11:25 AM
there is a thread with a poll in it shaun
with the only 3 designs that ppl bothered to design and submit
