so what was your overall opinion of the place? do you think it will be good for our forum visit in Feb?

 

[redgate]

It was 100% brilllant

 

[OmniCognateNeutronRangler]

High praise indeed. Thanks for the pictures and the feedback. I'm looking forward to the group visit in Feb.

You would have thought that they would have spent a little more time applying the biturbo badge on a show car.

Redgate, pls could you resize the pictures so they fit better 1024x768 is about the maximum.

Good point Blobcat. Nice if the powers that be could limit the size that will upload to A4. Big photos make loading the thread a slow process aswell as hard to see.

By the way I think you can drive your own car round the track for about £30. Rather more if you want to drive the AMG's! Don't know whether insurance need to be told if you drive your own??? Or better still borow Malcolm's??

That would be no fun with Distronic.


Wish i could upload pictures rather than thumbs sometimes.

thumbnails are better for slow connections as you can load the page then decide to download the picture.

Here are 2 sites that should help malcolm!!!
Just browse your comp for the file in the resize site then save it back in a picture file on your comp then browse on tinypic for the new resized picture and upload it. Copy the middle url with IMG on either side and paste it on your reply to the thread!!!

Easy way I use to resize within Win XP is to slect the pictures then click on File and Send to Mail Recipient, you then can select the size you want from 640 x 480, 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768. After selecting the required size your email program opens with the resized pictures. Save these back to your PC and either place them on a hosting site or use the manage attachments option to add the pictures to a post.

Try this Malcolm, I have used it for years its a picture viewer, organiser etc.But much much more it plays music and videos all from the same folder. Its free easy to use and makes trawling through lots of pictures a breeze (With a scroll mouse no clicking on each picture. Or just hit spacebar to get next picture)
It will also convert pictures to any type or size you require.

Dont forget to get the addons pack from the same site
I have just noticed they have the newer version up. Downloading it now
Theres a forum on there too if you get stuck, or give me a shout on MSN.

I went along to Mercedes Benz World today. It was like being a kid in a sweet shop. All these cars to play with and no salesmen in sight trying to prise my wallet out of my hand

To top it all though they were holding a draw, first prize (well four first prizes) a front seat passenger ride with the Silver Arrows display team. Guess whose name came out of the hat . Me and young Stig in a CLK 63 AMG.

So I think I can top Redgate's 100% brilliant. Well done MB.

I'll try again to load the imges.

 

[NJones59]

Me praying before we set off...

I think I have found the Stig breeding colony. The one on the left needs to have a word with his tailor

At some point me and my new best friend were coming in the opposite direction to these two!

Trust me, I was smiling from ear to ear.

And this is just nice.
