Here's what we need... who's good at this stuff?

[Timmer]

The WIVOS... Wisconsin Illinois VTX Owners Sumthin.... have a gif in their Profiles that scrolls upcoming rides. It would be cool if some smart (might be asking too much) Indyucky could do this for us.

It was created using an "Animated Gif" file. There are utilities that can be downloaded for free to create these. Basically the way it works is that you create several images and then combine them together with a timer for the transition from one image to the next.
I am new hear but I could help with this sort of thing. Although I have no idea when your next ride is scheduled since I just joined this board last week.

A little insomnia and whalla...I created an example of what you were asking about.

You can create Animated Gif files, and do a whole lot more, with Photoshop Elements, I know it is less that 100 bucks. Great program. You probably also need some webspace to save the gif!

[batlou]

I used Elements for the one I created there as an example and your right, it works very well animated gifs. If you do any sort of Digital Photography this is a "Must Have" application.

Me thinks batlou has too much talent to be a true Indyucky. To be a member of this group you need to be pretty pathetic and useless ............. hey, just look at Racer!! :D

[Timmer]

Batlou- You are da man! Here is the Indyucky logo(thanks weekly). Understand that the banner needs to be no larger than 400 pixels x 100 pixels to comply with the board requirements. Our first ride is April 8-9 to Southern Illionis. Racer, Hoovey or I are the contacts for that one. You and your significant other are more than welcome to come along. See the other posts on the SI ride for info. Also the second ride of the year is the scheduled to the Red River Gorge.... Date is May 20. Race04.... Racer is planning this one.... We're hoping for some kind of divine intervention on this one... you know- burning bush.... parting of the seas etc... Or we may be wandering in the desert for years....

As I posted on the KY board, we are neighbors and I would be happy to help you with this or just get together for a light libation.... I can be found at BW3's in Springhurst during basketball season... come to think of it I can prolly be found there no matter what sports season it is watching games... PM me if I can help.

I would need the original artwork to use the logo from the patch. Otherwise I would be spending forever smoothing out the threads to make the image a solid color.

BW3's sounds good to me, just as long as you arent wearing any of that 'Big Blue' attire. Red Blooded Card fan here and I try hard to disassociate myself from some of those KY bluebloods. LOL :lol:

My wife loves to tag along on the back too but we still have young children and it makes our days or nights out few and far between.

"Louie, this could be the beginning of a beautiful freindship"


Weekly- Do you have artwork available from your Tshirt project?

Batlou.... I PMd you with my contact info. Glad to get together any time. My wife stays off the bike as well, not because we have small children....ours are mostly grown.... She stays off the bike cuz she hates spending time with me... When you meet me you will understand.

Actually, perhaps I did not say that correctly. My wife loves to ride, in fact she gets upset if she has to wait a couple of weeks or more between rides.

That's fine with us. Send her along.... Nice of you to offer to stay home with the kids....

[WEEKLY-RIDER]

Sorry guys i don't have any artwork from the patches or shirts. Just don't forget we are all brands of bikes not just HONDA. That is why the patch has no brand on them.

[Timmer]

Heck it's just a banner why not just use the patch photo?

I will work on it this week sometime and send post it here.

[Timmer]

Might have to offer to buy 2 beers (no motorcycles) for this one. Seriously, I would be happy to maintain this if you can show me how it's done. Have photoshop... Big mistake... Too complex for a dumba$$ like me... Should have bought elements like a couple of you suggested.
