Here is a 1920x1280 'http://vvforums.hqforums.com/' wallpaper. Seems more like war-paper :D

I got Jesus in my fax machine. I saw Ho Chi Minh down @ Burger King. I dated Vinnie Vincent as a Drag Queen. I still don't understand a f**kin' thing.

Didn't think of that. I was trying to get two Vs that looked like a signature.

Nice work Dannii, it's very cool you do these things.

Maybe it would work ok just one VVV, so using the two V's.

I don't think this place supports background wallpaper, is that what you were thinking of?

Actually, a banner which incorporated a Jackson DoubleV in it would be cool.

Hey, Vic..what size do u want the banner?
Just made the wallpaper for anyone who is interested as having as wallpaper on their computer.
Also do you remember there was a Arty section on the Pyromessiah site & it had drawing people had done & computer graphics...Like the one where Vinnie is wearing Ace make up & it have the Brady Bunch in KISS makeup

Actually the two Rhoads guitars overlapped is very clever and BRILLIANT !! Out of "RESPECT" for Vinnie's design of the VVV, I honestly think we should steer clear of anything that may OFFEND him . Why cause trouble for ourselves.

Rich, you read my mind, ah...that why I picked the Roads, as the VVV is his design. And the two V Roads (reversed [leftie] made the two v in VVFORUM). Man I'm easy, what ever you guys like. I've got an idea, I'll try out see what you guys think. Sort of best of both worlds. :D

Thanks Rick...This was going to look good cause the original image was super high res. Hard to find any VVV pics that are high res & easy to mask out the background. Plus it's not really a VVV so 'he' in theory should get pissed.

That's pretty cool and I know what you mean about high res shots of a VVV, hard to find.

Something that incorporates a design like that for a banner would be cool, just saying were the VV Fan Forum maybe?

Because it's a Vinnie fan forum it's cool to use the DoubleV, it's just a picture of a guitar, nothing to get your knickers in a knot over.

See what you can do, it doesn't have to be big for the banner. The page expands with the browser and I have monitors at 1920 pixels wide but not everyone is the same.

I think if it's around 900 wide will be cool, and if the background is black it will blend in with the rest of the board.

You could always ask for permission to use a pic of my ultra rare custom shop Doublev guitar from 1987. It's a true gem :lol:

i really think an american wearing the ankh is pretty offensive to Egyptians. But, hey, its only rock n' roll!!

Guys, I think some of you know what I mean, please play nice.....

I am trying to work out some stuff to make a front page and an annoying side effect of transferring to a proper domain is that the option for a forum logo at the top of the screen is gone!!!!

Personally I don't see a single Egyptian giving a crap that a US citizen is wearing an Ankh.

It is only rock n' roll, and stuff happens.

Did the Japanese get pee'd with Kiss in their Kabuki style make-up? Nope, they embraced them into their culture. So much so that their second album had a heavy Japanese theme.

Oooh, not really sure, we need to come up with a page layout and then I may need some help upgrading the board to V3 phpBB software, we are currently running V2.

I was thinking of this maybe for an intro page, which then takes you to the forums?

For the logo I was thinking/hoping for something that was longer than it was taller, to run across the top?

Ideas/suggestions people?

like the Ratt & Tigertailz logos. Is that what you mean by longer than it was taller?

Tigertailz logo is a good example, and good font too!

For the forum itself I was thinking of just the words Vinnie Vincent Fan Forum along the top, in font like Tigertailz is cool, something like that.

So that you don't have to scroll down a lot to access the forums.

A pic like the Egyptian one would be cool as a front page, once I can work out how to do that.

Currently I can't even have a forum logo it seems, but I'm looking into converting to V3 software, which is the latest. I only have tonight to do this before more work takes over for a few days straight.

Thanks Chris,

I am about to put up a poll to see if we want to keep the new layout on this software version, or try another one, then we'll know what size/shape of forum logo we are looking at.
