    Hey, has anyone ever had a virtual car show?? How about we post pictures of the Mavs and vote (maybe use the poll thing for the voting). It is winter now and most of the cars are put away but why not have a little fun with them. Pretty women pictured with the car adds points of course. I suppose the women can have guys pictured with yours (just remember, it could subtract points!!). Just an idea.....dont hurt me.

    :bananaman :clap: :cool: :rolleyes: ;) ( :) :eek: :cry: :mad:

    ...the crowd goes wild!!!!!!

    Every time something like this is suggested, our fine moderators remind us of the incredible bandwidth that this gobbles up.

    This is a cool idea and we can do it. :)

    Bandwidth is not a problem, it is the size of the forum database that is reaching its limit. It is close to 200 megs, making it hard to manage. Members can email me their photos and I can post them and then we can all vote on the cars. Lets do this in January to give members enough time to take/scan photos. :bananaman

    I can handle snow (four letter word) as long as it's 60 plus outside. I can't handle the cold.

    I think it's a good idea

    I see nothing wrong with the idea, and like riporter said, we will get a chance to see everyone's cars. Sounds good to me. Country

    I guess one catagory will have to be "Dougs Cars" He's a self contained mini meet.
