1LE "CD" opinions needed!

As some of you know I am working very hard on a 1LE front brake upgrade "CD". Plus a lot of other content that people have asked to be included, "the rear brake conversion" for example". So I have decided to title it "The 1LE Plus CD". It somehow seems appropriate.

But, I have encountered an unexpected problem. The "1LEPlus" portion of the "CD" only uses about 10% of the available free space on the CD, and that is over 300 photos by itself!

I still have many pictures that I do not have the time to catalog, or annotate. They are nearly all of car stuff. Or things that would intrest car nuts like me.

So here is the question I need some help on;

Do I add these cool photos to the "CD" to fill up some of the unused space? After all 700MB is a lot of space! I could put them under a heading "Bulk images" or something like that. In this way you could browse the thumb nails, and you might find something interesting to you. Like you might find looking through a box of old car stuff.

Or keep the content 100% technical?

This is not intended to be a sales pitch, I really do need some help on this, and who better to ask than the membership?

Thanx,ANDYZ28

The more the better, unless it increases the price (by taking more time to make the CDs). How much are you asking for these things anyway... to make a profit or just break even?

Andy, are u planning to sell this cd ? If you are not, I'd like the idea of it kept small so people can send/download an ISO to eachother and burn it on a cd themselves.

If your selling it, i guess add the extra stuff so people will get more for their money

I vote to "shotgun" it...throw everything you have into it. I agree, the more info the better. I love to have a bit more knowledge than is required or needed.

Thanks for ALL the work!!

I like the bulk image idea. I don't think you'll hear any complaints if you go with that.

I don't think you can go wrong with adding extra stuff, Andy.

Remember - (think horsepower)
Lots is good,
More is better,
Too much - is just right.
