5th April - AutoSalon Meeting

[R31Nismoid]

Ok, things are getting nice and close now

If you dont come to regular meetings, you wont be in... save for special circumstances (ie. your from geelong)

Date: Tuesday 5th of April 2005

Venue: Bell's Hotel, 157 Moray St, South Melbourne (Cnr Moray St & Coventry St Melways Ref - 57, G1)

Time: 8pm Sharp

What do i need?

1 Pics of cars, or movie footage to give to Chris too colate it for our display.

2 Promo people. Anyone who has a friend/girlfriend or whatever that is interested in modelling pleae bring them along.

We need all of them there so i can go over a few things and work out just exactly what we have, and what we need in relation to the Ladies.

I might have a run of t-shirts, depending on if we get enough.

3 Car detail sheets. Paul will provide the critera (hopefull in this thread)

Please have a think about it so it can be filled out next week. We need a couple weeks to have these printed and laminated for each car.

Thats all i think.

See you all there.

cheers - ash

I have sent the PSD to Matt (gtrr34) and he should have it by now. The spec sheet has the following categories:

Engine

Interior

Exterior

Stereo

Power

Other

Andrew and a few others had mentioned making changes to the categories and changing Other. Which is fine, youll have to list them and give to Matt to change.

[Snowman]

My suggestion was to change "Engine" - to "Performance" so that things like Suspension, Brakes, Gearboxes etc could be added.

and also to change "Other" to "Achievements". So you can list 1/4 times, how many chicks you've picked up in the car etc.

[paulr33]

yeah they sound like more suitable categories, good idea

[Bec]

If anyone has/can get a high qaulity version (.eps preferably) of the "Skylines Australia" banner (the one from the top of the forum pages) - PM me please.

I need it for the posters.

I'm modifying the Spec sheet psd template now... just changing the heading text for the different mod categories, different photo's, but the layout will remain the same.

I also substituted the "autosalon text" at the bottom with the actual autosalon logo which I stealthily ripped from their media PDF file

Does anyone have a hi-res raster or vector based design of the SAU logo with the big Red 'S' to add on the top?

[R31Nismoid]

take the "AutoSalon" out... can it be done?

What we'll do, is we can keep em and use em for any other car shot style events that way.

Not just Salon.

[R31Nismoid]

anything mate.

[paulr33]

what other items are still oustanding? matt how did you go with the psd? any other items not taken care of? ps i had dinner at the palmerston best parma ever for $17

its been voted number 1 parma on superparma.com we should move there

although ive noticed not many people have dinner at the new place

and they always **** up our order, weve ordered 3 times and its been ****ed each time

sorry to chat

[Snowman]

Paul - before we chose the Bell's hotel we went to the Palmerston to inviestigate - was very very average. Parma certainly didn't deserve the No. 1 spot in our opinion.

ash with the stand do we have a layout of what we are doing with the car in the space we have or is this dune on the day?

[Bec]

If anyone has/can get a high qaulity version (.eps preferably) of the "Skylines Australia" banner (the one from the top of the forum pages) - PM me please.

I need it for the posters.

I still need this logo in high quality - i am not having any luck so far getting this.

If anyone can help, it would be good.

Also - the logo created for the top of the spec sheets - could i get that in an eps form - might have to use that as backup if the other falls through.

If anyone has either of these - let me know and ill PM email address.

RE PHOTOS: We are hoping to get at least 1 decent/nice photo of each car entered to display - if each person can bring photos of your car to next meeting it would be very helpful - CD preferably.

Also more photos in general for the slideshow

[Bepo]

I have a hand full of pics of my car, two things though:

Can you do something with the plates to erase them, I can mangle them in paint but thought you wizards could make it look blank as aposed to something that has been defaced by a 2 years old grafiti artist!

Secondly can I email them instead of CD, only got 5 pics

B :Bang:

[paulr33]

bec: shan had the logos and he said he was going to send it to me in one of the members threads but i never got it. find the thread and hassle him for it.

bepo: send us the pics (paul at dodo.com.au) and ill blur the plates out

[R31Nismoid]

ash with the stand do we have a layout of what we are doing with the car in the space we have or is this dune on the day?

positioning is always a last thing on the list
