If it will actually be considered, I can make one up one night after work. It's pretty much what I do all day, and it would be in flash. If people don't have flash, it would revert to a gif / jpg. The offers there!

Personally i think with the huge range of cars that ford have produced and the amount of them that members have personally improved or put there little touches on, there should be a rotating banner of past and present cars from this site,on display..

Not a bad idea, the only issue is who and how. Also no matter what there will be some that cry "foul, why wasn't this car or that car selected".

If you guys havn't made a decision yet, I don't think you ever will!

Yes nobody, because of course as soon as the new model is released the old ones are traded in and turned into scrap metal to re-make the new models.

Most of the suggestions are about FG's, BF's, and other falcons. Being ford forums and not Falcon forums, I'd think that other cars would be worth throwing in as well if your using different banner rotations. Explorer, Territory's, Mondeo, Focus and, Fiesta. And if your looking at cars from other era's, then theres escorts, cortina's, lasers and probabbly a few others I have no idea about. Even some of the old school Fords.

I have to agree, this is a great idea.

Thanks

The how is the easiest part whether its images / swf's, or just one swf that pulls in random images each time you visit. There's no reason you couldn't have every car, but then an extra 10kb each time the site loads might not be so appealing.

It could always be left to a vote or something on which get picked.

Don't throw rotten fruit and vegies at me but an F truck would be nice too.

: Possibly not Australian Ford Forums enough to make the banner.

Hillbilly F Truck · 13-11-2008, 04:38 PM

Fair enough. By the way, some of that juice got in my eye, and it stings!!!!!

Scott · 13-11-2008, 04:44 PM

Needed something to go with the Tomato, I'm not fussed if it has F-Trucks or Macks.

Why not, some of them were assembled here, have Falcon bits and no yank effy ever had a factory 351C.

Laminge · 15-11-2008, 03:56 PM

F-truck would be nice in the rotation as such

Scott · 15-11-2008, 05:31 PM

Just needed an excuse to throw rotten fruit ;)

StookEB · 15-11-2008, 09:16 PM

I know this isnt helpful but, ITS JUST A BANNER!!!

All that matters is the site keeps going, is easy to use and the admin staff keep doing a great job.

sgt_doofey · 19-11-2008, 01:46 PM

I guess what would probably be good to see is a rotation of current model cars, including Falcon, Festiva, Focus, etc, etc. A least that way, the site would be promoting Ford Aus and the current lineup of available cars for Joe Public to see.
Chuck in a few of the classics/performance as well, E.g. GTHO, Force, Phoon, GT's, TX3's, X4's, X5's, ESP, LTD's, Fairlanes, etc.
A couple of hot rods if available and some really old ones too for something special.

Jason[98.EL] · 23-11-2008, 03:52 PM

ORSM-XT · 23-11-2008, 07:05 PM

Does anybody notice it has already been changed??

Looks great now but its probably not a permanent thing, nor do I think Craig would expect it to be.

Not just because the pic in the banner is mine, I believe it should stay as it is......................................

I know that i will be hated for saying this, and that emotions on the subject are high, but I don't think its appropriate for it to stay as it is forever. That's all I'm going to say.
