November Issue-"Reader's Rides"

Your welcome guys. I could make wallpapers of these too but I bet your already have your desktop background set to your vehicles.  

I'm currently using a pic of my motor as a wallpaper. If you were to make up a wallpaper of it, would it include the CHP logo? Needless to say, I'm quite proud having anything CHP beside, on, around, near, my car etc. Could be interesting... Thanks  

Of course it would. It would be big, bold and right on top of it. JK, but it would have the magazine logo. I've wanted a wallpapers section for the longest time but since our navigation on top is so cramped I don't know where to put it. Plus I have to go though development and they love to take there time.

Anyways what screen resolution do you use?  

It says 1440x900 - 60HZ. Does that seem correct? Don't know squat about computers, but got that from the monitor menu. It's a 19" HP flat panel. Hope I didn't just make a fool of myself, but if I did, go ahead and have a laugh on me, it's ok. Thanks in advance for anything your considering doing. Cool....  Mark  

You know to turn it on, that more than a lot of people know how to do. 1400x900 sounds right for a 19. The reason I ask was because when I have some down time I was going to whip something together.  

Thank you. Look forward to it.  

Your welcome, if anyone feels left out let me know. I think I just opened a big can of worms.  

Here is something I whipped up before lunch. It's not much but it gets the job done.

 

yeah i want my car in mpayne, but its not even close to being as nice as marks. very nice car mark, i would sleep in that baby.  

Well if he has a misses and she tells him to sleep outside at least he would be convertible.  

Thanks man. Looks nice and sharp, I guess you guys would call it good resolution. Fits my PC perfectly. Cool. 69Nova, just keep pluggin bud. Although they're never really done, in time they do get 'purdy', and I thank you for the compliment. I still feel as though it was just pure 'luck' that mine got in, but still proud either way.

The 'misses'? No, no dog house here. After 28 years of raising my family, and never being able to afford the really good stuff (hey, family first right), it ended in divorce 8 years ago. So now I can do the whole car scene, now that it's just me, my Elky, and my Dobermans. Although my Granddaughters like to 'cruise' in it now and then.

Anyway, I'm rambling. Thanks again MPayne for your efforts. Are you a computer design guy? I'd be really interested in any ideas on various art of my car and willing to donate to your favorite charity for your time etc.  

I cropped it to the exact size you told me your monitor was. I didnt have to add to much to the photo, it was already a clean shot. I just added the logo and a camera glare to add some flare.

I am a computer geek all the way. I build them and fix them too, I hate places like Best Buy charging $75 bucks to run some anti-virus software and tell you your hard drive needs to be replaced and add an extra $150 to the bill. With the economy all I charge is either a tank of gas or a hot meal...lol. I do have a degree in multimedia design building website and editing video. The only charity I have right now is the feed my family charity. Wow kids are not cheap to feed, babies are the most expensive. The baby companies know and they get you.

Now I'm rambling...lol. Anyways I do have a couple of ideas that rose once I saw the huge readers ride section. I'll keep you guys all updated when I have some sort of a plan.
