Had not been on there for a little while and must admit it all seems to work well now, my only comment would be on the size of the print on the subject page, fortunately I have a fairly large screen moniter but would be hard put to read it on a lap top - and my sight isn't all that bad :D

Looks nice, reminds me that we really must get round to doing some graphics etc of our own that we've been threatening to do for the past year :lol:

Whatever happened to those classy banners you created Andrew? I know there're around in a thread somewhere...

Maybe some colour in the Xm car image may set the style apart now from the "other place" :D
Moody and arty possibly... :?

Noz explains in this thread how you can change back to the old skin (appearance) if you don't like the new look....... http://club-xm.com/forum/index.php?show ... entry38831

I haven't tried it myself yet, so I don't know if it works.

How about "The Citroen XM forum"

Don't change it too much Andrew, it looks great :D .

I'm only suggesting changing the subtitle copy to say the same thing differently! :? :lol:
It's obvious this is a forum so why signpost it? Resource is about right for the collective
wealth of knowledge/experience on here too.

:D

I've tried a coloured version of the side profile and it's not a patch on the one shown above.
If that looks OK to everyone I'll pop a umlaut on the E for a finished version but did wonder
if the copy will change a bit? It takes some sad trickery to sit the "CITROEN" square under the
large "Xm" above it! :ugeek:

Nice, and there's nothing wrong as such with either. But what if you retained the (rather less pompous?) T H E ...F O R U M ...F O R...etc. and made the Citroën logo full depth? Then, I reckon its jobbed.... Also I agree - why introduce colour, because it's so specific and frankly detracts from the lines of the XM - which is what I guess was the purpose. Otherwise you'll get people asking for blue estates et al... :D
