I know it looks like ass because I used GIMP and my touchpad, can't find my mouse right now... but ya...
Here you go.
If anyone whose vehicle is displayed does not wish it to be there, let me know and I'll take it out.
I just pulled random images from users that have uploaded... that and it was really what came up after I hit refresh on the main site that show random images. Plus some of the skin a scion images from the competition that was on DA.
Again, I apologize for my shitty photo editing skillorz.
From left to right top to bottom: (Artist renditions are listed as "title" - artist on deviant art)
newagestar, Cylon XD, "Shell Shocked" - jonsibal
Lucif3r, Five Axis, khans
"Scion xDi"- adam4186, SnuGG, Ragingbull78 (ScionLife)
xDizzle, "Scion xD: Wet Paint" - AmericanCure, LittleDeviant (not sure on this one)
Let me know what you think! I can edit size and change images around if you want it to be banner sized like the current one is... but it would take away from some cars... it's up to you guys, I can do whatever... but I only do a little dabbling in photo editing... if someone else is a pro at this kind of thing feel free to step up cause I am a beginner at best.
Chris you seem to have a good handle on this. I would say to keep experimenting with the ideas you have presented, and maybe we can have a vote when we get enough ideas from you and everyone that puts in a design.
The only thing is it needs to be thinner, almost the same size as the banner we have now. Can you do something like this? HOw about taking a few cars, the url text and cutting them out with a white background so it fits the existing one for now?

White BG? lol... too easy, would make it easier if it was black or something... But I'll work on it.
Everyone else feel the same way about the graffiti logo?
I could make up several different things.
i can try more things but since my last OSX update my pen tablet is being an arse and some settings won't save. so been doing lot's of work via the mouse.
Katch's isnt bad but can we tone down the extra colors?
as for the vinyl, can someone do sometype of outline of an xD and include that with the graffiti writing somehow? kinda like how infinity had the commercials with the FX where it was an outline of the car only...
rofl, what no colors in graffiti? jus' playing. that was my only artwork i could find last night. but i'll try more later this week or if not try sneak um at work.
hey, if anyone wants to incorporate this xD outline into their design, maybe for a vinyl window decal like I was working on, you're welcome to it, I have it in a high res image about 4000 x 2000 pixels, so I can scale it down to any size you need and send it to you... I was envisioning putting the scionxdforum.com text across the body of the outline, but have the text stick out on either side of the outline image by an inch or two... would be good for a one- or two-color window decal... I just don't have the proper editing software or fancy fonts to work with this any further...

^^^ outline is good on that guy Troy, maybe skip on the windows? That way it is just the outline of the xD? Then some graffitti styled text and we have out vinyls.
