Hey someone changed the banner

Well the banner has changed. Needs more Tu-Tone cars :hick:

If you'd stop taking photos of two-tone cars in shadows, that could be accomplished. :hick:

I'm using a new program to supplement (and eventually replace) Photoshop for daily duty, and wanted to give the banner a facelift, and I had a little free time...so there you go. You don't know how tough it was to find photos of all those cars at the semi-correct angles like that. It's still not perfect but close enough.

I'll have to take some dusk pictures. Morning pictures the shade is needed otherwise the silver is washed out by the sun.

It would be cool to do every year 83-88 for both body styles and swap between cougars and birds.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Nice upgrade!
I can imagine it was quite a job patching in each one at the correct angle.

EXCELLENT Job!  I also do graphics work so I KNOW how hard doing anything with vehicles can be!  I used to do a lot of limo and party bus websites around Nashville :(

Is it just one banner, or will it auto-rotate a menagerie of banners?

They were rotating in my mind though!

The new banner represents the amount of active members left.
It's Gumby's fault.
