Thanks. It was frustrating, because I had the Paint window up and a Netscape window with different views of the real S7, and I kept seeing it a different way, and I'd have to re-do it. But I'm still proud of the end result. :)
 
That's what it'd probably look like if I did it. Its hard, and amazing to see how these artists use all these different colors of orange or red, to give the car a more realistic feel.
 
Well that built up S7 could fair to be alot smaller.

As of the whole issue of permissions and credits, it's rpett ymuhc beenr esolved.
 
OK, well he mad ea big apology on the Pixel Car Community:
On behalf of all of the members at DriveStreet.com. We would like to apologize to all the people that we used bases and parts from. We apologize for taking and using them and then not correctly crediting you for them. All of the members now have to put credits in their shops and signatures. We also would like to apologize for giving the impression the we were making money by using your creations. The only reason we did memberships was to help pay for our server and domain. We have removed the memberships to end further confusion. I hope that you will accept this apology and forgive us.
-C7B
And
go look www.drivestreet.com . we have made the crediting thing very big. We are going to mass e-mail everyone and fine or whatever it takes to get people to know that we actually mean business when it comes to crediting.

I am really glad I saw this thread. These guys would've gotten away. :)

I'll second that!

Yeah, you should really do something about that, Chaos. It isn't right. Plagiarism is plagiarism. Sorry to hear about it. You're not too shabby. . .actually, you're great at it, as is Pimp Racer, compared to me, that is...

I didnt do the base. I just added the kit and all. it was really hard! I think I am gonna quit that for a while! :lol:
 
I am so Pissed Off!

I made the idea for getting more cars, they did, and no one gave credit to me about getting more.

That's it. I quit. These guys suck, the 1 mod overuses his power, I don't see them giving any credit anywhere. 👎 :grumpy:
 
Here's my car. Just slight, yet clean modifications.

Very small differences in the body. See if you can spot them all.

Hey, if you wanna donate some things...:D

Chaos, I commend you for doing what you did. 👍 Like I said, it wasn't right, and you brought it to their attention. I'm sure a lot of the artists, and you, appreciate that.

Oh. I agree, it is hard. All I've done is shortening a frame (easy), lowering (easy) "big-rig" exhaust (medium), re-painting (hard), lift kits (medium), a trailer (medium), and wheel changes/resizing (medium). Plus I tried to build a car from the ground up, which is incredibly hard. That's why I agree that the artists deserve all the credit they can get.

Wheel change...lowering...front bumper makeover....rear bumper makeover...seat replacing...and that's all I could see.

Here's my lifted Silverado, I call "Godzilla". All done by me, except for the base, that is...:D

Well, I'm also a little PO b/c I clicked collect interest and didn't get any cash.

I PMed an online mod (The one who overuses his power), and the idiot tells me, we've already fixed that. :grumpy:

That happened to me too. I'm not going to complain though, because it's only a game...And on top of that, I saw I was able to collect interest yesterday, but I figured I'd wait a few minutes (I don't know why) and in the meantime, I made a few posts. So I deposited my cash and now I haven't been able to collect interest for two days now. (I guess because they don't want people depositing money to make a few extra bucks in interest...)
 
Who knows.
I just want credit for giving the Admin the idea to get more cars. He thinks he got it instead.
 
All-in-all, it's a poorly-run site. Half the members are fanboys that don't know actual English, and the mods, are jack:censored:es. The only reason I'm still using the site is because I enjoy customizing the cars. And buying and selling cars. Other than that, like I said, it's a poorly-run site.
 
They can't speak proper English at all. This how the Admins speak.

"do not apply I'll have it up and running."


Ever heard of a period? I'm only on just to buy the cars as well.

Close, aftermarket wheels and seats obviously. Exhaust was modified to a larger diameter. No bumbers really changed, but were slightly extended. The front lip, sideskirts, and rear bumper were all extended 1 pixel for a slightly more aftermarket look. Car was't actually lowered though. Not sure what else to add to it though. I'd rather keep it subtle and clean looking. Only mod I see being added is a cage for now.
 
Eh, I got some of them...I guess the wheels made it look lower to me...

It does look good though, and I would put a roll cage in it if I were you. Make it a real sleeper - "stock-looking, before an ass-whooping." :D I read that at a website once, and thought it was too funny not to use... :lol:

Ditto.
One thing I can't figure out is where they get their money from. The job system doesn't work (and even if it did, it would take a while to save up for a new car), and they can't all have shop jobs. Yet everybody seems to get new cars all the time.
 
Well, if you notice, it seems the there's really only 4 rich people. The richest member deal show 4 peopl with over 180,000 points and the 5th with 9,000.
 
Site is down. With little to no explanation.
I guess this gives me time to:
-Forget about that stupid forum and get on with my life.
or!
-Finish drawing my sand rail, and try to figure out some way to get it in the game when it comes back up.

It feels wierd to go on all these other message boards and make posts because I really believe I have something productive to say. As opposed to just saying anything because it'll get me money. :lol:
