Lately, I've taken a liking to the "retro" look (as about 75% of advertising has, too). I was bored one day and made this one, I think it's kinda neat. Sorry it's so big, but I like to run in a high resolution.



Kinda reminds you of those old ads from the 50s...

How do you guys get pics of your cars on the net? Do you have to have a scanner or what? I'd love to get a pic of my Formula for my wallpaper and to put in reader's rides but I don't have a scanner or anything else high tech like that.

If you don't have a scanner or digital camera, take some pictures of your car and take your film to Wal-Mart and have them put it on CD.

This is my background right now. I can't remember where I got this picture from, whos car is it? It is a beauty.

As for Counter-Strike, I'm [SsP]Malachor I can be found at either 216.69.195.10:27015 or 216.69.195.15:27015.

I've been playing a lot of DoD lately though.

Sorry for the lack of ThirdGen material in the later.

Yep, I just switched to a picture where the is a tree overhead and you can see every thing off my hood that is in the tree as well as the sky. Looks great to me. I love to see black reflect everything off.

Malachor, was your front clip wrecked and repainted or anything?

Don't your cars get jealous of other cars that are on your desktop? My car may not be much to look at, but its mine...



BTW if you want to get your car in a post you need that picture on the web (is there another way?) in other words, you need to purchase some webspace (or find it free like me) and upload your pics there... the easy way to get digital pics is to get a CD of the roll from a photo place or use a digital camera...
