Animated Tach Statusicons

[hotwheels]

Here are a few animated tachometer icon's for automotive forums.

To install, just ftp these to forums/images/statusicon and select overwrite..that's it.

I added a shift light per request. You will find with the animated tach for new forums, that the needle still move's and the shift light work's in green. Then i changed the forums old so that the shift light flash's to red. These change's are in the Tachlight zip file.

Let me know if you need anything else. Hotwheels

nice!

I installed it on my board and it's a little difficult to distinguish between old and new with just the needle moving. Any way to show a blinking green shift light for new and a blinking red for old?

Lovely, I'll put those up as soon as I get home. Thanks a lot.

[hotwheels]

Yes........i will update em right now.

[Biek]

If I'm not asking to much ... could you also have a set for a dark background? The dials now have a little white sparkling around them and I'm not sure how to fix that myself unfortunately.

[hotwheels]

The area around the tach, like i put in this attached image? If so, what color are you wanting?

[vinny5oh]

Hotwheels, I just noticed your sig.....
Insanemustangs.com??? I've been seeing that site name all over the place! You're a busy guy! LOL!

Thanks for the switch, looks great.

That's what I meant yeah, and if possible I'd like a plain black background. That would make them blend in just perfectly at my site.

Thanks in advance m8.

Biek, it will take a day or so......I am on graveyard's right now and won't have alot of computer time at home....i will make the change's for ya though.

[Biek]

Thanks a bunch maestro, really appreciate it. But please do take your time. It's not that my life, or that of my members, is depending on it. ;)

Hi HotWheels,

I was wondering if your going to make some tech designs for the treads inside the forums?

Thanks,
Kyle

RIP Vin. :(

Vinny passed away back in Feb. '07.

I just upgraded our board to 3.6.7 and lost this feature, so I had to find it so I can bring it back again.:up:

thank you SO much, this is EXACTLY what i was looking for

[rageedo]

thanks man :):)

Those are pretty nice! I think I'll stop the flashing on the forum old icon though.. lots of animation and flashy stuff on the page might be overstimulating :P

[TROLL]

pretty cool... like what was said above, is it possible to keep the animated needle but not have the flashing green or red, just have a solid green or red instead?
thanks...

[Polo]

great for websites about automobiles! lol thanks.

[Vindicator]

Like these a lot. Any chance they could be designed for a black background?

Cheers

I like that idea.

[Vindicator]

Just download the images in to a free animated GIF editor... it should be an easy update.

[Tsubasa?]

thanks.. they're very nice :)

[Seattle_Mike]

Anybody have any luck getting the animated tach status icons with a black background? I tried editing in PSP and had poor luck and the animation quit working as well so I gave up. I sure would like to use them for a site that has a black background.
Thanks

Perfect!
