Would you like to add a Poll?

Cool designs. I like em' all.

Glad to hear it! Please cast your vote for it by selecting that one above. So far no votes there so I can tell you didn't check that one. Posting a verbal vote here below isn't the same as checking the box of your favorite.

#2 is the only one impartial to any year or model.

Click harder, If that doesn't work, then hit your mouse with a hammer.

csstrux · May 6th, 2009, 01:52 PM

Like all of them. #1 is the most eye catching though.

Oldskeeper · May 6th, 2009, 08:45 PM

I would like to know where my 62 starfire and 63 olds 98s are represented in the banner on line 2? It goes from the 50s to the late 60s early 70s,this era was represented by the emblem found on the trunk lid of the full sized car (not the starfire deck lid).Can this be added to the banner?
Banner number one is an A body banner and banner number three has a fifty fifty representation. Just a thought.

Thanks for the input Steve. If you get us a copy of that logo we'll see if we can get it incorporated into banner 2. But banner 1 is currently in the lead, so it may be a moot point. Nice couple of cars you've got there tho!

oldsonharmont · May 7th, 2009, 01:29 AM

I like #2, it's simple yet clean, and doesn't leave anyone out.

easytobedead · May 7th, 2009, 08:23 PM

if you take number 3s back round an puts it for the number 1s back round that would be nice?

redoldsman · May 7th, 2009, 09:59 PM

They are all very good but I like 1 the best. I especiall like the globe in the center.

sworthy555 · May 7th, 2009, 10:03 PM

#2 from me.

Yellowstatue · May 8th, 2009, 03:53 AM

I thought the original idea was to get rid of the goofy new logo and put something real in that vacant spot...and another brilliant flash is why not rotate the banners every three or four months so we all win...and you still haven't told us where the winner gets to vacation for two weeks, preferably with a nearby auto wreckers...

isn't the '57 emblem almost the same as the '63...gotta keep everyone happy...

LOL - no prizes here, other than seeing your pick in the header.

The rotation scheme did occur to me, but I'm not sure we can implement it. I'll be talking to the site's Unix guys to see if it's possible though.

Omicron · May 9th, 2009, 08:04 AM

So Option 1 is in the lead with 60.00% of the votes, followed by Option 2 with 26.67%, and finally Option 3 with 15.56% . Keep those votes coming folks!

rane · May 9th, 2009, 12:00 PM

I wote 2. All historic logos...

OLD SKL 69 · May 9th, 2009, 08:04 PM

I like all of them too but I thought #1 was the best.

hamm36 · May 9th, 2009, 09:09 PM

I kind of like this one. With that soft blue back ground with the names all the way across. Just trying to help.

jlowery · May 11th, 2009, 10:36 AM

Option 1. More cars the better.

BosMobile · May 12th, 2009, 11:03 AM

It's our pleasure.

As for the rotating cars scheme, that would require an animated gif (banner), and unfortunately the forum software won't support that in the header. Good idea though!

My vote is for header #1
