Crazy Taxi 3 theme (PC)

[R083RT0]

Hi all, :hello:

Crazy Taxi 3 (PC) is my second Hyperspin theme, I hope you like it.

(SEGA logo is pulsing)
(the Crazy Taxi 3 logo is hoovering)

greetz,

The car looks sweet. I think the game logo needs a little work. I think it should be larger and more vibrant (it's a little washed out). Also, the edges have white jagged edges. A fun license plate frame might be cool for the video, too.

Haha, nice hint!

On the logo. Did you cut it out with the magic wand? The edges are so jaggy.


On the theme. The car is indeed very sweet. The theme's layout is all screwed up.
The title should be about twice the size and preferably somewhere at the top. Size wise the same goes for the video. Maybe let the video actually fill up the video border.
The Sega logo should be about half it's size. (maybe a less spoke out color)
Though the car is indeed very cool :D you should probably move it partly off screen.

I'd go for the car on the bottom left corner (cut the bottom off up to the bottom side of the front wheel & up to halfway the side mirror). Video filling up the right bottom side. Logo (Big) above the video at the top right side. Sega logo (small) above the car in the top right corner.

ok, thanks for the feedback

I will change (improve) my Crazy Taxi 3 theme very soon

[R083RT0]

i made a video border (sort of taxi license plate)

is it ok?

[R083RT0]

ok, i changed the theme:
a bigger Crazy Taxi 3 logo
a smaller SEGA logo (bottom left)
I made a checkered video border

:ciao:

The artwork is still all over the place. I've made a very high detailed render of what I'd like to see: :D

I don't think the Sega logo looks good on the video border (since it's already in the theme). I'd go far a similar but thinner border (is easy to recreate block pattern) with the video twice the size.

THK, I love that theme... Please upload it now!!! :)

I like the taxi frame, but how about one of these "classy" frames? :) Try THK's layout (maybe clean it up just a tad ;) ). Instead of SEGA on the frame, you could try TAXI.

Looked into your upload for approval, but things are still messed up. Did you zip this up with HyperTheme or just repackage? The 'video' overlay or border you used is named as Artwork3.PNG. The extension should be lowercase otherwise it won't read into HS, same with the Background image. I changed the extension and checked it again, but it doesn't have a video border then in the zip.

I recommend looking at this one again and maybe making some of the last changes suggested regarding the video border in a couple of the previous posts (the thinner, but checkered video overlay sounds good. If you build it through HyperTheme, then everything will be named properly and zip just fine.

Crazy Taxi 3 theme is almost finished, I think.

Do you have more suggestions?

@shimoda
thanks for the info
I was not using Hypertheme, but now i am!
when the CT3 theme is finished the upload will be good

@THK
thanks for the rendered image, it was helpful :)

Very big improvement! I'd definitely move the Sega logo all the way up in the top-left corner. And maybe increase the video just a tad. It isn't all bad if some of the vid is covered, especially with games were most of the action/characters are in the middle of the screen.

I would say to move the video up maybe 50px and left maybe 10-20px: I think it's ok to have a little overlap with the logo. I would also move the sega logo more toward the top left.

another update:

moved the SEGA logo
moved the videoborder
the Crazy Taxi 3 logo is hovering

plz tell me what you like & dislike about this theme

:wavey:

[mildanti]

my opinion would be move the title above the hood of the taxi and move the video up to the top right corner and put the sega logo under the video

The Crazy Taxi 3 theme is finished.....you can find it in the download section (games PC)

enjoy!
