Yes, please. :laugh:
 
alright, im off to bed finally. i feel like a zombie :help:

ill try to get the rest of Day 0 pics posted in the morning (about 2 hours from now, lol). including the badass Volvos and the worlds biggest brake calipers :crazy:


ps can anyone offer up any hints on how to resize my monsterously sized pics..? so they upload faster.


and please feel free to post links on any other forums you attend. itll help drum up some traffic for my website :cool:
 
Those are amazing pics. Keep an eye out for Factory5 and the GTM. It looks like its going to be a great show, although it always is.
 
I use Photoshop Elements 2.0 and under 'File' there is an option for 'Batch Resizing'. You just open a bunch of photos, select the size you want to make them, what the destination folder and blamo. It zips through 20 files pretty quick (but the problem is sucking up the RAM to load that many 10 meg files LOL)
 
ok, the rest of Day 0 pics are up and now half of Day 1's as well.

see the Ford GTTT, 32" and 34" rims, and guys and ladies....

the rest of today's pics should be up tonight.

i figured out how to resize my pics so ill take the originals in 10mp and then resize them for the web. if you want a full res pic please paypal me $10 per pic :laugh:

enjoy......


ps sorry for the crappy ass lighting. not pic friendly..
 
THIS is what you're babbling on the phone over?!




Just messing... nice pics. Though my blood pressure is still through the roof from John's little stunt... Heart attack. Seriously.
