I dig it. Do you have the capability to randomly cycle through the images as each page is loaded? Crooked H style?

That is my plan, I just need to find the mod that does it.

Also phorq, can I ask what they look like if the car has a 2px white border instead of 1px? I ask because you get some jaggedness with the 1px line.

I think those banner pics look great. The only suggestion I have is to remove the white border from around the cars.

Site is looking good! fing02.gif

Caj, believe it or not, it's from the photo like that... must be mirror tint on a cloud-less day. I can fix it if it bugs ya though! wink1.gif

And as for the lines surrounding the cars... it's a 1px black line and a 1px white line surrounding that (modified on Cottonmouths & F2 Rally)... I did it because the certain parts of certain cars blended in to the backroung weirdly without it... Photoshop doesn't always handle 1px strokes too well, but it wasn't offensive to me. Lemme try a glow instead of a stroke.

I may like the glow more then the small stroke, but the big stroke is worse. What do you think?

the glow is ever-so-slightly less jaggy. But I do agree the larger stroke is too... exaggerated "web 2.0" for me...

I can make those changes.
