The Cars Of V3M

Post by volvosneverdie » 22 Jul 2010 02:48 pm

Heres an Idea.
A thread that displays everyones cars in one thread.

Each pic in this thread will also be a link to your Project thread.
Which means anyone visiting the site (or members) can see the cars and look up more info directly, and easily.

How to, and Rules:

1. One picture of your car per post.
1.5 Resize your pic to LARGE if Photobucket or similar, as the board here still doesnt do it automatically.

2. Picture is a clicky to Project thread.
eg:
[ url= http://www. thelinktoyourprojectthread ][ img ] http://www. theurlofyourpicture.com (DIRECT LINK CODE from photobucket [ /img ][ /url ]
Copy the above into a new post in this thread, substitute the first and second URLS to ones specific to your car, take out all the spaces.

3. Change the subject to of the post to yourusername - Yearandcar
eg: VND 1988 Variomatic.

4. Post!

Its a teeny bit technical, so if anyone wants to PM me a photo, I'll link it and add it to the thread. :D

This idea is ripped straight from Retro Rides but I think its a good idea, the Project car thread is out there, but lacks pictures.

If mods think this is a good idea, can we get a sticky?

Cheers all.

sorry digital cameras were not really available or any good when I last drove a 360. Graphite Grey one will of course be captured after fitting turbo and respray.
