I'm pretty sure you haven't, as I just did a huge update to the site 
last week...over the years I've put up many pictures of people with 
their
rides, what ever they've submitted actually.  Have you sent in anything? ;-)
I also remember you saying you've never seen a picture of me...?  There's
at least 3 pictures of me on scirocco.org, been there for a long long
time too.  Have you looked under the mailing list section of the site?

There's a spot under there for list members & their cars.  I don't get
too much stuff for that particular area, and it's pretty much exactly what
you're talking about.

Would you like to help maintain that page?  You collect info and pictures
from people.  Clean up and crop the pictures, create a thumbnail and a
click to enlarge version, do up the HTML and send it to me.  I'll post
it in that section of the site.  If you'd like to add more it, like instead
of merely a 'click-2-enlarge' picture, a page of pictures, that'd be
great.

Go download the source to the page, work it over a bit if you want, or
just send me your info and I'll add it.  I understand your desire to
contribute and encourage you to do so.  Sounds like you're really
interested in doing something that would help an under developed portion
of our communal site, and scirocco.org is all supposed to be a site for
all of us.  What do you say?

scirocco.org will be around for a long time, how long will 'freewebspace4u.net'
be around? ;-)
