 Topic: Where Now?
Posted: 28-July-2006 at 10:32 |

What direction do you want this to go?
I plan on adding an adverts forum in the next few days (maybe for members with 10 or more posts).
What else would you like?
I also know the top of the pages are a bit empty. Any design suggestions?

Congrats Killian, and to all concerned. sweet! 
Had withdrawal symptoms over the last couple of days 
Looks ok at the moment. BTW I was a Graphics designer so, if you need anything for the BMW Board forum just ask! I'll be able to knock up some vector graphics for the site.

I guess something about 150 * 150 but it will depend on the pic also.

Im entirely open to ideas and would like everyone to take part in the thought process if possible

What are the guidelines regarding BMW logos, as I understand and correct me if I'm wrong we can't use a copyrighted picture/image.
How about if I were to take a photo of a BMW flag flying in a field or a photo of the roundel on my car, can we legally use those. Don't want to upset anyone or risk legal action because one of us has posted an image we shouldn't, there has been more than enough threat of legal action as it is.

I will make contact with the relevant authorities about roundel usage and will let you know. For the moment we cannot use them.

Right, in that case, everyone wipe off the roundel emblem on photos of their cars for the time being...

The hockey-stick is also copyrighted, I expect the kidney grills are as well.

Ps. BIG SHOUT for Killian for the quick "restart" of the forum

With a little change in the wording, we could make it the forum statement.....

What about using the Bavarian flag for the logo in some way as it is the same colours as the roundel but I don't think there is any copyright on flags
