Default Would you like your small Ford in a screensaver ?

I know of at least one person who has done this for another group of cars. Just wondering if anyone on the forums would be interested in having their favourite picture of their pride and joy put in a screen saver which i will be making, and putting on my site for downloading.

If you have a Fiesta/Ka/Focus/Escort/small Ford of any type and would like it put in the screensaver, please send me a couple of your favourite pictures to mrcrackers@gmail.com and i will compile the screensaver. Please also note i will be by default airbrushing out all registration plates unless you tell me you want yours left on. Also please let me know if you'd like your AFF Alias put on the picture.

I'm looking at getting as many pics as possible, to make it last a while!

Anyone interested ?

Ok i've got a full registered version of the screensaver now. Just one catch, i've lost a lot of pictures due to my old laptop (where i started the projects) crapping itself, so i had to start from scratch :(

It will take me a while to go through my emails and re-edit all the photos.. so far only the following people feature:

AdzELxr
crannersEL
davro_xr6
Deadman
fantz
fiery
Full Noise
john_xr6
Juiceman
Mitch_lx
MRFIESTA
superpursuit83
XR6_Gal
XR8fela
zetec20

Still got the BF XR in there too.. might leave it in, add some nice pics of the new car tomorrow.

Please remember to UNINSTALL ANY PREVIOUS COPIES OF THE SCREENSAVER prior to installing this one. If there are any issues please contact me, otherwise enjoy. Next update will be done when i have a few more people send their pics. This version of the screensaver is cancelled only when a keyboard or mouse button is pressed.

Ok version 2 of the final screensaver has been released, it still has a few little things i need to tidy up but all in all it runs solidly. I spent most of last night editing all the pictures again, as i lost all my edited versions after my other laptop said bye bye. The result is, i'm now crosseyed, but there are some nice looking machines in the SS. I still haven't optimised it for a particular resolution, it's mainly aimed at 1280x1024 at this point, but will function on any resolution. If you have a widescreen laptop like me then you'll lose a bit of the top and bottom, sometimes being where the names of the users are on the pics.

Anyone not listed, i don't have your pics any more, so send them to me again if you'd still like your car featured. I've relaxed the restrictions to 3 pics per car, but up to you if you want 1, 2 or 3. If you'd like pics of a car you used to own featured too, that'd also fine. It won't count against your total, it's 3 pics of each car. Good to see so many cars in the SS, but having said that there are a LOT of nice cars you guys aren't sharing with the rest of us :P You know who you are!

You will need winrar to unpack the compressed file. You can download it HERE . Click the link below to download the latest version of the screensaver. You can always click on the link in my signature at any time too. Feel free to keep sending in pictures, it will be updated indefinitely. There are still around 900 spots left ;p Send the pics to mrcrackers@gmail.com

Hope you guys enjoy it.

continue to email pictures to mrcrackers@gmail.com - including your username please! Still got a few pics that have no owners ;p Let me know if you want your plates in or out too, your choice. THE BIGGER THE PICTURES THE BETTER! The 'random' feature of the ss can be a bit sticky.. tends to dwell on pictures sometimes, so just because you don't see your car within 10 minutes, doesn't mean it's not there!
