AggieDave 6 #1 November 4, 2003 I'm trying to figure out how I want my next canopy to look, since I'm planning on ordering in a couple weeks, I thought I should start now. Take a look at what I've played with so far, feel free to add designs if you like. Green and black are my colors, but I want the canopy to not have a lot of black, just to help with finding it if I have to cut it away.

CanuckInUSA 0 #4 November 4, 2003 Dave I voted for #1 and believe it or not, I have exactly what you've listed as #2 (the Icarus Signature Colors with neon green as the predominate color and black as the rib colos). But the black isn't seen very well. Just thought I'd give you a little heads on in case you didn't know. I wouldn't copy the Team Extreme colors, but I do like their design and if I had a chance to order another Crossfire2, it would be to use a similar scheme but different colors.

champu 1 #5 November 4, 2003 I picked 2, but kinda like Ivan I feel kinda "meh" about all of those Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #6 November 4, 2003 You can't see the black very well? I was really wanting to go for that "glowing ribs" look, without having to have white on my canopy...white looks like SHIT after a while.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

AggieDave 6 #8 November 4, 2003 For everyone that doesn't like my 3 choices, color something else out for me!

CanuckInUSA 0 #11 November 4, 2003 Maybe you could get the Icarus people to do something to help the rib colors, but it's hardly noticeable from the limited videos I have of myself landing my new canopy. But I love the performance of my Crossfire2 and really don't care about the ribs anymore.

sunshine 2 #15 November 4, 2003 Where's the pink? If you don't like pink go with hot pink, or neon pink. If you don't like any of those, you suck!!! ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samurai136 0 #16 November 4, 2003 I'm non-plussed about your color designs. Pick your shade of green, each of these three designs have ribs 1 and 19 green and all the internal ribs black. Top n' bottom skins matching. 1: Grn,Grn,Blk,Grn,Blk,Grn,Blk,Grn,Grn 2: Grn,Blk,Grn,Grn,Blk,Grn,Grn,Blk,Grn 3: Grn,Blk,Grn,Blk,Grn,Grn,Blk,Grn,Grn Number 3 is asymetric and could be switch L/R for an alternate look.

Patman 0 #17 November 4, 2003 Took one, but I have to admit, I don't care to much for the colors. How about mixing another green in there? Your container is a darker green, how about using that? I really don't have a clue, I have only had the pleasure of buying someone else's choices. Let me know what you decide! Patman Don't tell me I can't! I already know that! Haven't you seen my x-rays?

Brains 2 #18 November 5, 2003 Dave i'm thinking you need to go with white top and bottom skin with a darker green for the ribs. Maybe alternate dark green/black ribs.? Try that out and see how it looks. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katzeye 0 #20 November 5, 2003 I'm partial to WhiskeyChick's canopy. Her's goes from light to dark, asyymetrically. You could do somethign like that, starting with black, going to dark green, then to neon green... Is a chicken omelette redundant? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #25 November 5, 2003 Ok, here's a couple different ones. http://www.paragear.com/canopy_app/APP.ASP Here's the link for the designer I'm using (Sq1's seems to have crapped out for some reason), feel free to design one and post it. Infact, if you design one that's cool and I use it, I'll give you a jump. (put it on your account at your DZ or whatever).--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."
