Doodley Squat Memorial Paints and Vinyls

A number of people have expressed a desire to create paints and vinyls to pay homage to our dear friend, Doodley Squat. Dood has been a huge part of keeping Forza 4 alive and interesting for a long time now. It is only fitting that we honour his memory in this way. Please feel free to post pictures of your creations here.

I know Steve (Dood) is smiling down on us all and will enjoy and appreciate whatever you come up with.

thanks,

Gears

This is such a great idea and I’d like to post now that if anyone wants to know more about him, or wants a photo of him to do some design or anything let me know as a private massage with ur email and I’ll try to send out some good ones, if I can figure out how to post pics I’ll just post them here and you can take your pick. I know Dad would cry with joy to see all of you people coming together just for him. He loved all of you, just like family and I know he’s smiling down watching us, being so proud of everyone.

Here is Steve:

Of course he was smiling! But not me :()

I was thinking of this very same idea the other day, so it’s great to see it done. I know I’m not a designer, but when I joined DLK, Steve did his best to help me create my first ever design, and I couldn’t thank him enough for taking the time to help me. I still have that very design in my Storefront, so I’ll post some photos up of that on monday in honour of him.

If there are any of his designs lurking around in the club house, I’ll also look at photographing as many of them as I can to post in here over the coming weeks.

EDIT:

Amber, to post a photo, you’ll need to upload them to Flickr and then post them using the following

Hope you don’t mind. I took the liberty of fixing this.

Looks wonderful. Like something Dood would have done himself. :slight_smile:

I know. I almost gave up trying to sort that out. :frowning:

Here is the way to load images from Flickr into the forum

  1. To get the link


    Next

    Next - Select the size - I like 800

  2. Open the “Insert Image” icon - 6th in from the right in the forum message box

  3. Paste the Copy Link Location URL into the box

  4. Done

I say copy the link to the Original size, the new forums scales the images to fit!

That’s a great tip! After they removed the 640 px limit this forum originally imposed, it was increased to 800. I do wonder why there was no way to scale a pic in the post itself, though. Then, clicking on it would reveal the full size photo like it did in the old forums. Or, did I miss something?

cheers,
Gears

Gears, SMF, i use the square with the arrow to the left of the three dots in Gears’s top photo. Just change the size setting one time and the highlighted link will work for every pic after that

Posting a pic for DagNoFear of a collab between ChaostoeryCZ and him. It is tuned for handling. If anyone wants a copy contact me or them.
Going to take it for a spin myself, so expect more photos.

With all due respect for tuner(s) and painter(s).

But would it be possible to get the same paint on some other car.
I’d prefer any muscle car, but just about anything else goes.
It’s just the fact that I never ever use cars that are really high on the LB’s and you can find that car on just about every LB fairly high.

I had a “great” paint idea, but unfortunately I could not hire any painter to do it for me, and I’m rather useless painter myself. There would be way around it, but that would require few original Doodley’s paints unlocked, and I don’t even dare to ask anything like that.

ill def, take one of those

Thank you Tel for the pic! This car has a short story,it was the last one Steve and me used in a race together,easter monday around maple valley.
I got one of his PG painted 550 out of the saleout and we started the race. He kicked me (by accident) out of track,i asked him if he wanna win that way and
he answered: I’ve painted it-i ruin it! Then he let me pass him…
Will never be uploaded into sf or ah,just gifted by his friends to his friends.
