A New Corina?

[Propfam 2,306]

Hello,

I've seen @CorinaMarie includes a pink tractor below the post rank. I don't know this is intentional or not...

I imagine that occurred because of my post here. In much the same way this post (and the following replies) led to Dog Catcher becoming a rank.

They are called CMLs or Custom Member Labels most sites have them

Slight correction: In this case it is actually a Rank and anyone else with the requisite post count will get it too. It could be turned into a true CML later tho.

Must confess, was attracted by the topics title. Hopefully Corina never change.

But now, as I got here:

to me the tractor is red, not pink. A pink tractor, I doubt, it would be recoganized as an international.standard.

... and if it was yellow, Corina could sing along a very kitsch and old-fashioned popular Spanish song. It plays at least once in every town and village festival, normally when people have already ingested severe quantities of alcoholic beverages.

That's a catchy tune tho I can't understand it. And I love my pink tractor (even if it is red).

It's much sillier than it sounds:

You looked at me with gazelle eyes
when I went to visit you on my [Fiat] 600
You gave me a panther face
when you saw that car, so small.
You know well that I'm a countryman
and that I only have a convertible.
When next sunday arrives
I'll bring it to amaze you.

I have a yellow tractor
that is what is used now
I have a yellow tractor
'cause is what is fashionable.

You have to buy a tractor
my mother always said
'cause is the cheapest way
to have a convertible.

Fine lady from a good family
you prefer a carrer boy
that has a foreign car
good pay and a chalet on the suburbs.
But as I live in the country
I can only travel on my tractor.
Never gets flat tires, has A/C
and has a swing that puts you playful.

Yes, I spent 10 minutes of my life translating that

The video was blocked for me due to broadcaster rights over here (Channel 4), but I'll take your word for it.

With pink being mostly red (in RGB terms), I guess it works both ways.

Or there's always this slightly less subtle paint job:

Looks like an alternate version of a CML to me! Congrats!

Still, it would be very exciting to see some colorful ones with drawings and logos and such, SC4D style.

Along with selected others, I can confirm all Trixie & MOTM winners will be eligible to receive a new CML of their choice. Including any 'catchphrase' text if wanted, icons are also very easily added in the same field. In fact, this allows CSS properties to be added, so there are limitless possibilities in terms of styling, text glow/shadow effects, etc. Of course, we wouldn't want anyone to have one they don't like, so you'd be contacted to work something out you're happy with.

Also it is about time some of the ranks held greater visual significance. Because let's face it, the incrementing dull grey stars & shields aren't exactly the most inspiring or interesting. With this in mind, the plan is to add a wider range of ranks to the database for both low and high post counts, taking feedback from community suggestions. The same as well for reputation levels, making them more Epic.

So yes, stay tuned. The arrival of Cori's tractor is a small sign of things to come!

Not to mention the return of the Trixie medals, and without forgetting the Trixies themselves...

That's some huge news!! Can't wait to see what ideas has everyone in mind!
