finally bought a new memory card for the camera today, so I went a little hog-wild and took some photographs.
As she sits at Idle.
Vanity picture.
My new favorite. It'd look better if I could get that gold body stripe off there.
Mister Blowby himself.

just so I can put them in the garage. I'm a dork when it comes to using MS paint.
I'd like to do a new signature picture with overlapping the front-rear angle shot I took (a.k.a "my new favorite") and the existing one I have now with the motor and nose. _________________

| so you want to be able to print them and have them fill the page and not overlap onto a second page correct? |

Nice to finally see a picture of your car that looks like a car! now I want to see more. Just put a nice set of GFX and a spoiler lip and that thing would look hot!

well since i do not have a printer paint won't even late me into "page setup". but i was going to look for the box that says " fit to page" or some suck. there should be an option for that .
here is what i would do
save a Black and white version of the photo, in the same resolution as the one you want to print. then turn your printer on draft mode. and then experiment. this way if you screw up you are using as little ink as you can. or put them on a CD and take them to a photolab and have them make you some prints  |

That seems like a lot. By "garage" just meant resize them so I could fit them in the "garage" portion of the crew site, it just limits the resolution of the photos, and mine are slightly too big.
are we talking about the same thing? _________________

Very sweet man!
It's nice to see that car in such good shape (considering how it looked when I sold it to you lol).
Btw, is that an e-brake cable hanging down for the RR wheel? May want to re-route or ziptie that up unless you want it yanked out by a stray branch or something
Good job Chris, you da man |

Yeah, I actually need to replace both cables, and I still need new pads/rotors.
It seems to stop ok as is. It'll be enough to get me to and from Cows this year. _________________

pictures aren't too bad considering its a samsung camera
that gold stripe is just a decal after all, nothing a little heat gun or goo gone wouldn't fix (just be careful with goo gone some versions of it don't care for clear coat too much) |

why not just go 20" on front and rear and turn it into a hooptie?
Good Taste --> <-- Demon
*if you were joking in your OP i apologize. |
three things.
first, it's somewhat of a jab at somebody else.
second, chrome anything in larger than 18" on a 3rdgen sucks (especially in the front haha).
third, i don't want to see any 4x4 thirdgens running amok.
of course I was joking. |
