Yo dudes

I have looked at some of those cars, and damn!

Mine seems so ugly...hehe! My name in the comp was somehow entered as "b>" and not "b><treme", could it maybe be fixed? Ah well, i wanted to add in pics to the current pic i have, but i thought it may not be done? Never mind, you'll get the idea, Good luck everyone, i allready picked my favourite!!

Post by **Bojan** » 21 Apr 2004, 11:28

Hey, thanks for reporting this. It has been fixed.

M_S · Post by **M_S** » 21 Apr 2004, 11:45

sorry but you put in the wrong car

can you please change it to this one

b><treme · Post by **b><treme** » 21 Apr 2004, 11:59

Hey no problem bobyx, thank you for fixing it.

One question I still have though...in the normal show room of nfsunlimited site, i uploaded my one car, and it said it was successful, so now i want to just check how it looks online, and when i do a search by "author" namely b><treme, i dont get any results, and it shows "b>" again where i typed my profile name in the search box....why?

Post by **GT3x24x7** » 21 Apr 2004, 16:14

Ah - sorry about that MS - I thought I had updated it. We're trying to fix it now, but it's a manual process... we're doing our best

EDIT - Master_Supra - your car is fixed now and I've reset the votes.. thank bobyx for fixing the car cuz it was outta my hands...

b><treme - your having this problem because > and < are special characters in html - so your nick messes with the site. bobyx should be able to fix it tho - the man is supremely skilled...

How do i join?

I sended a car trough the Show room

How do i send my car?

Your pic was rejected because it was too big for the showroom. It was too big in here too - it's been removed.
The BlackChallenge is now closed to new entries. Details of the next comp will post around Friday.

hi, i've been told my car was too black, lol, and i guess it does look like it in the screenshot, I thought I adjusted the Brightness, but apparently submitted the old picture.

So just wanted to show you the car and how it REALLY looks.

Hope it's better now, the rims are just silver and the quad pipes are chrome.

Supra-man · Post by **Supra-man** » 22 Apr 2004, 15:00

nobody really seems to like my car too much, lol.

lol - how can a car be 'too black' for BlackChallenge?? I thought that was the whole point....

On the opposite note, it turns out the Dubster's entry is not black enough - the wrong colour was used...

BlackChallenge design rules wrote:You must use a black base colour. More specifically you can only use two colours for the base: Gloss Row 1 Column 7 or Pearlescent Row 3 Column 4.

A closer inspection of Dubster's car (than the one I made originally) reveals he's used Pearl Row 2 Col3, which is like a dark purple or sth. Upshot: I gotta kick ya from the comp mate - sorry...

Here's the car so y'all can check for yourselves...

UrQuattro · Post by **UrQuattro** » 22 Apr 2004, 20:24

yup... And about too black? Beats me man, I didn't know what to say to that!

Supra-man · Post by **Supra-man** » 23 Apr 2004, 01:23

lol, too black, thats the stupidest thing ive ever heard espiacally since its A BLACK CHALLENGE!

The comp is great, my car is doing rather bad, but i don't care, it's fun to vote and see how your taste in style compares to what other people think is real style!

Anyhow, somewhere in the rules it also states that: "Picture must also NOT be edited in any way (profile name must be seen)." - i dont like to do this, cause i actually like the car that does not comply to this particular rule...look for it, (very yellow), the one that's profile name does not show...imo, if a person can be kicked out of the comp for using the wrong colour, he can be kicked out for this 2...right? If not great! If so, sorry, but i felt i had to report it.

Like i said, peace, did not mean no harm by this!

bx - i take it you're talking about DrewBoi's car? Look closely and you'll see that the real (crossed out) profile name is mine. I made the car on my machine under DrewBoi's instructions because he has the game on a console and can't take screenshots.

This is a way that ppl on PS2 and XBOX etc can still be in the comp - I do it to be fair to non-PC gamers. The entry stays.

We have only half of the entrant votes in so far, so that means most people are getting like 13 'phantom' ten votes on their cars from the missing voters. If you want to make your vote really count, get in there and make some real votes you slackers!!!...
