bump Posted June 15, 2005 Report Share Posted June 15, 2005 If you'd like to enter the photo competition, please post your entries here. Until we decide the best way to store them, store your photos wherever you like. We'll link to them from here. Just use the "add a reply" button, create one post and add the links to your photos, let's say a maximum of 4 per category for the time being to keep things manageable for everyone. Put a caption or a description for each photo so that members can use that caption when voting for your entry. So your Photo Comp entry may have one or more photos and look like: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Standard photo category: Ninco Audi Modified photo category: Nino Vaccarella on the way to win Targa Florio There are 10 types of people in the world.

Eno the Wonderdog Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Guys - Pheono reminded me of my favourite slot car picture since my Dad bought me the "Ironingboard" March back in 1702.. but didn't take the picture. The Luke-a-Monster loves cars!!! Actually I think I told the story before but it may take telling again (for extra points).. I'd bought Luke a car for his third birthday 'cause I thought he needed it.. and it wasn't that well taken by Wen. On the night before his birthday my mum called and asked him what he wanted for his birthday.. he wanted "a car to race on David's track.." I'd bought him one!! This was the photograph.. and this is my entry Captain's log: We are enroute to some planet whose name I cannot pronounce to do something really complicated that I don't understand.

manic35 Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Wife was at work tonight so had some hours to kill. Here are my 'Enhanced' photo entries, I wasn't much of a fan for this category but I had a lot of fun playing around with editors. I have edited all my images at 1024x768 and then shrunk them to 66% for posting so the text is not quite as clear as I would like. First image is a LE Panoz Esperante GTR1. I have posted something like this before but have changed it quite a bit; This is one of my favorite cars, Fly's Ford Capri; Ok, this one is way out there but kinda looks funky. The car is a MRRC Toyota; Had a bit of fun with this one, LE cars racing through a construction site; Hope you like them.

DAVENIC Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 They are awesome Manic. What type of editing program do you have? I don't know which one is my favorite but for orginality the MRRC Toyota one wins hands down. I love it!!! They are going to be hard to beat. Well done Manic.
