Exactly and someone has now photos, just need to boot some Linux box to get them out, then mail pics to myself, trying then to judge which is best with 256 colour display and so on ;)

Had also time to diagnose one Lada (Headgasket had gave up) and peek inside of AMC Hornet's engine bay (engine was blue, too cold?), this has been great day, very warm too (perhaps +30 haven't checked) :P

I'm also certain that my idea for photo is unique, but you will see it (winning) later :lol:

Ok, my photo has been sent, so you can count me in too :D

I'm not sure how it will look with full colours, but in tv it looked ok, just some areas got too much light and 1,3Mpx of course causes some problems. Anyway I feel it is good photo.

How can I sleep? :lol:

All done! Not sure what will happen with voting, as peeps can probably vote for themselves... ah well, just hope everyone else votes, and that that doesn't matter!

Or, could use V3Maniacs honour, and vote for someone else!

Funny, MJ and I had paper boats but we did not communicate at all about this :lol:

Great photos there everyone :D

At least I will not vote my own pic, maybe someone else's pic ;)
