ITEK logo needs a change, definitely, but the 500 logo... hmmm... yes and no.

Right now your logo is more like a banner style and not exactly a logo that would (or could) be used in many places. Because the only drawback is that you have the long tail off to the right and it only looks good if you abruptly cut it off with a square box like you have there, and on the site. It is decent design considering there are numbers in the logo (500), and using numbers isn't always easy. But because of that long line on the right, it can be pretty hard to put it on other forms of media.

In order to do some logo competition, you have to give some people more insight on what you might like to see. Just leaving it up to some people to get creative will not always give you the best and most desired results. I'd suggest mention any ideas (that you couldn't make yourself) you might have had for the 500 Servers logo, and even the ITEK logo.

Some really good points there m8....ITEK has been together almost 1 year now and in this time we have tried to get something to work as a logo and the only things we get are logo that look like they are stickers and came out of a cereal box. The main reason for this problem is they have always been within a box or a circle etc.....I dont think a logo works well like that with us. So i am stuck for ideas for a logo so i am unsure on what i want myself apart from it not to look cartoony and for it not to be in a circle etc. If i had to pick colors i did want for the logo it would have to be black, red, silver. I am hoping to have a possable new design for ITEK skins within a day or 2 depending on how busy my good friend is but if it works out the way i hope then i will show a screenshot of the skin so who ever is interested can get a better idea, But like i said im not 100% sure if its going to work out so i hope i give enough info. And if there is any questions then just ask....And thanks for the help tweaker

Thanks for that...seems the matrox box is the way to go.

Been a while since anyone posted on this....But i was thinking about doing this myself and wondered if anyone has tried this matrox box out yet? Or is there any other ways around this now?

Cost me alot of tears :P

I WIN!

U da man....Looks like that took some time there. But its not over till the fat lady sings eh

Quote from ORION :

I wouldnt change the 500 logo tbh

For ITEK you should give some more info about the "style" of the team. Also, you want some red/silver/black/white thing I guess, so it makes sense to say this aswell, unless you want a pink-greenish logo

Well the logo does not have to be the same color as the colors we use at the moment because if the logo is right then we will be changing the skin to suit the logo so we will be building the skin around the logo instead of the other way around like we tried in the past. We are just after a modern looking logo that does not look cartoony....

Sadly we cant afford to give out a cash prize or we would not be offering this You could do it anyway just to show you could win it

plz plz plz post a video of you drifting lol. i want to see how much faster the wheel is with 900degrees or at least 720

as krane said, there is a place in both global and specific game settings to adjust the steering lock if you check "use specific wheel settings" at the bottom

if you want to fully use 900degrees for roadcars. you have to set it to 720 ingame. I'm guessing you would set up the g25 the same as the DFP. links to those settings are in my sig below

Here is one of me drifting with the DFP on 900 deg mode. G25 would be something the same i think only that the wheel is little bigger...And yes i do sit that close to the screen because i aint got much room behind me :P And no i am not a drifter...This movie was requested by one of my team m8s lol

Good luck with this guys...We tried it and did not get a good turn out for it and also the guy who was ment to run it never bothered his ass lol...So gl guys

Nice work pal...Might have to try this out.

Quote from jamesrowe :

just get rid of the lazy people that dont help. grrr, hate it when they just dont bother. its happened in MG and we solved it, and its happening again
Time for a shuffle round again i think.
You will see, only about 4 to 6 or something will attend the rematch to itek, out of about 12 drivers. not really on.
Anyway, we will beat you this time ITEk... hehehe

LMAO illepall

Quote from Neokiller :

lol.. you scared me for a while B11TME

Every team has is bad moments and problems but with will and work everything can be surpassed, just never give up

I scared myself m8...I just hope the team start helping out and start being a team....And its also because of the lfs comunity is the reason we are staying because it can be a really nice place to be.

I guess this can be removed. Thanks all for your help, if it was not for all of you i would not of changed my mind....Can admin please remove this please

All you guys have been great....I did not know so many of you knew of us and some of the comments are really really nice and thats the sort of rep i always wanted with the team. You guys have made me change my mind for what i want with itek. I am going to try my best and keep itek alive and i am going to take onboard alot of what you guys said and think. I hope you all cross your fingers and hope that itek will stay alive because this is the last hope for the team.

Some of you guys are making it really hard for me to say good bye
You guys think i should give it another go?

Quote from traxxion :

I'd start off with waiting till the summer holidays are over and people get their lazy asses off the beach chairs and into the desk chairs for some good old online racing nights. I'm pretty sure this inactivity is just a general, temporary thing.

You mebe right but the fact that is has been like this before the summber sort of kicks thats out the window. As for kicking some of the member i am giving it some thought trust me.....I dont want to let the team i worked so hard for to go down the drains but some of my members are just not helping

Alot of you may be right about trying to keep it going but alot of you will know its hard enough trying to find more members that have the pace and are going to be online alot. If i was to keep itek running can any of you give me ideas on what i should do? I am still pretty new to running a team but i would like to know what some of you would do if it was your team? And thanks Orion you are right but all my faith is starting to run out

Quote from AppiePils :

Damn that is sad to hear/ read. Is the inactivity based on the last few months or just now during the holiday season? (I mean the activity of 1ST is also lower since most of our drivers are on vacation).

Anyway good luck and hope to see you all back on the tracks later on.

Its based on alot of things....I have also thought about kicking out the members that are very inactive etc but i am such a nice guy i would not kick them lol. I would love to keep ITEK running but i dono...Mebe we will take a break or something.

ITEK Racing created by me back in november 2005 has sadly came to a end. Due to alot of inactivity in the team and alot of drivers loss of interest in the game i am sadly going to close ITEK down. We were a great team while we lasted and i just wish things had of turned out better. I would like to make a post torwards other teams as well.....Alot of work goes into making these teams and all it takes to kill them in inactivity...Please be active for your team. RIP ITEK
