    You guys should provide forum owners with some different size artwork that we can display somewhere on our forums that shows we are a part of the Tapatalk Network of sites, confirming to members that Tapatalk can surf that site.

    Of course, this will be optional to the owner, as I am sure it will be a template edit to add the artwork. For my sites, I would like something small for the footer. If you provided the owners with a PSD that allowed them to change some colors around to match their template better, that would be even better.

    Just a suggestion for the future.

    Hi all,

    This sounds like a great idea - what's your prefer size what's text you want to see on the little banner? like "This site is iPhone Native!"? "Powered by Tapatalk"?

    Hmm. A variety of sizes is going to be best, since each forum owner will have a different idea about where to place it. Sometimes a hi-res image that can be re-sized is even pretty useful.

    As for what it should say, maybe something like "Tapatalk Enabled"?
  5. Jman423 Super Moderator

    Yes, a high res image would be good, then we can work on it if you provide the PSD as suggested.

    As for the text... "Powered by Tapatalk" might get a little close to the "Powered by vBulletin" copyright in the vBulletin footer.

    I would suggest something along the lines of "Member of the Tapatalk Network" or " as mentioned by MyMedia- "Tapatalk Enabled"

    I personally don't want anything bigger than 80x80 or 90x90 for the footer of my sites, but as mentioned, we can resize if needed.

    I've not heard of Tapatalk prior to your iphone app so "Powered by Tapatalk" may just get a "who are they and why should I care" sort of reaction. I think some explicit reference to your iphone app would get more attention. Maybe something like: "The iPhone app for vBulletin - Tapatalk.com" might work better.

    I can't seem to come up with the right phrase, but here is a rough idea of what I had in mind:

    Did anyone have an opinion about this logo or the basic idea?

    Hi Jimmy,

    I like this one! but of course i am biased. I will work with my designer to see what we can come up with. But are you guys okay to keeping the basic orange style?

    Hi!!!

    I was waiting to ask for one button as soon the international version comes up, BUT, looks is a good time for ask for it.

    Like the one Jimmy made but to send the user to the to the Application on the Apple Store. (Apple App Store, Surf Now or a psd file to edit it and promote the application.

    I think a direct way is better, as soon he realize, he will be on the app store on a click to buy it and install it.

    About the color... My forum skins are orange so I'm OK with the color.

    Thanks!!!

    What about reusing the Apple unified "Available on app store" button? We have signed the agreement with Apple and you can put it on your forum - that way it makes your members feel your forum is on the app store (which indeed so).

    Here is the logo:

    Also attached is the full PSD file.

    Great idea winter, file downloaded.

    By the way the Spanish version will be great, in case Apple Have it. :p

    Thanks!!! :D

    There is a PSD file maybe you can translate it yourself :D
  14. iPika New Member

    Looks like the letters layer is a object so I'll have to match the fonts. :D

    Maybe was done by Apple to prevent some text modifications. :eek:

    Is not a big deal, Should be on the standar Apple Fonts.

    Best regards!!! :)

    Downloaded but graphics are not my thing. I have no idea how to make transparent. Can't you provide us with something we can use without having to pay my graphics guy an hour for what is probably 2 min worth of work for him?
  16. Froggy New Member

    I like that one, although maybe "iPhone Enhanced"? Either way looks great.

    so much for my idea...

    I was thinking something along the lines of this,

    but I like the app store idea better... besides... Twitter is already using the T I guess.

    Perhaps you can help design one for us here? Our designer are really occupied by other work and I haven' seen a light in getting it done the way we wanted to. :D

    The above logo looks good except it's like Twitter too much. but maybe it's a good thing? :confused:
