The Name Game

[Renesis]

OT but where does your avatar come from?

 

[Overheat]

Final Gear cos that would be uber-cool

Ignition has a nice sound to it aswell!

Final Gear is Viper's. You can't steal that.

well, I came up with the name of Final Gear actually, so I'll let you use it

 

[Renesis]

it's not like we have a copyright anyway

 

[Overheat]

I was quite surprised that you went for the name actually Ren. I seem to remember you being one of the ones against the name originally.

Mine or Ethan's? Ethan's is from an issue of Motor Trend. Mine is a silly photoshop that I did as a joke on another board. It's suppose to look like my car ('87 Sentra hatchback) is drifting...the real pictures are my car being washed by cheerleaders and a Datsun 510 on a dirt rally.

Yes, but the name I liked for the site wouldn't work for a car magazine, whereas FinalGear does.

Well, this is an interesting turn out...

Final Gear has passed Ignition for the lead...

I've been off in la-la land, but I thought I'd drop in and say me 2 cents.

Personally, I think Ignition is the best. Having the magazine named the same this site implies that it's run by the same people, which it won't be, plus Final Gear is a TG/FG fan site, not a magazine. Doesn't mean they can't be inter-twined with members and such, but I don't think them having the same name is a good idea.

Final Gear for me anytime..

Half the material could be supplied by us though - as long as you don't have to pay anything, you should appreciate the extra free publicity

other people outside us won't know our site, so.. and Final Gear is a proper name for a car mag too.

 

[YF19pilot]

I think the main problem that Viper is addressing is that when people come to the forums, and they want to bitch about the magazine, they'll direct their comments towards him or the mods on the board, thinking they are the ones responsible for certain articles.

Personally, I'm more inclined to use Ignition anyways.

 

[Renesis]

well ignition sucks but whatever, just friggin' do it NOW!

 

[BlaRo]

I now want to change my vote to Ignition...

If you need a website template, PM me. I've worked on websites before (like my own) and I'd be glad to help.
