Hi all,

After receiving a suggestion, thebeachcats.com created a new photo album titled 'Share Your Graphics'. The album, which is contained within the Beachcat Identification album, was created so that anyone wanting to have new graphics printed for their boat could use files already created and/or used by others.

Please, feel free to share your files in the album.

I have seeded the album with the 2 files I used when refurbishing my Nacra 5.0. Click below for the result!

If there are any graphic artists out there who wouldn't mind volunteering their time in the event that someone wants a color change or some other simple edit, I think it'd be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jimmy

Sounds like a great idea. I'm not gonna put these there now but here is a concept I've been playing with that I would love to put on my P18 someday.

If you follow the first link in the first post you can get files from the actual album.

Some nice stuff has already been added to the collection

I've made some changes to the album so that more file types can be uploaded. It's best to upload vector graphics if possible (Illustrator .ai and Postscript .eps) but high resolution Photoshop .psd and Gimp .xcf files can be uploaded as well.

and Gimp .xcf files can be uploaded as well.

Damon, I uploaded my gimp files and they did not appear to work. No thumbnails at least.
Anyway, same as the png, just editable.

They worked, it's just that there is no automatic thumbnail generator for the .xcf files, but they can be downloaded with the "Download photo in original format" link.

Thanks for adding them.
