Also, you have to go inside of them and clean them out every year. It is also EXTREMELY dangerous to climb inside of them because the grain can be like quicksand. It will pull you in and you suffocate. My great grandfather got stuck in one when I was a kid. He was in there for several hours and finally they got him free and pulled him out. Very scary stuff being sucked under by a sea of corn seed. Sorry for the farming lesson...... way off topic...

KEEP POSTING GUYS!
I was actually in the FFA as a teen, made it to "Chapter Farmer" and rode in the FFA rodeo.

My FFA project was raising two bummer lambs, "Debbie" and "Donna".

But, I digress...

How's about alternating them weekly? Probably too much work but if there was a program to do it, that would be nice.

That's what I meant to rotate them. That would get equal exposure.

I had thought of getting a second gen and painting it the exact same color. The day I went to the dealership with the CASH, he had sold it about twenty minutes before that.
So, I spent the money ($1500) on my 83 and a GTO. Only got the GTO for such a good deal because it was my boss, and he got a new GTO, and promised I could buy that one off him dirt cheap

I'm a 2nd gen guy. Got 2 of them, but I really wish my vert was a 1st gen. Next car I get is gonna be a 1st gen.

Not that it would matter, , but I don't mind if you put a 1st gen in the middle bigger than the other 2. they were first. But I might request a different 2nd gen, or at least chang eit to a pic of the front (keep it s5) s5 has those crappy mouse belts, but they look better.



Do you think the other rotary is making a banner for their forum section??

What if instead of having a link to each section in words (on the main page), that we had the current banner as a link to the 2nd gen, one of yours for the first gen, and a third gen for the third?

About mine, someone asked about the rotor being only in the third banner, I tossed it there to see if anyone notices it, and if so, if they think it looks good, I can easily put it on the others, or even remove it.

For all you guys making images, make sure they're sized to be a drop in replacement for the above. That would be 752x85 pixels. If they're sized right then that'll be one less push-back that we could get for not using our voted pick. See what I mean?

I've split apart my banners, and resized them as per Innitab's post.














EDIT: If any of you guys have any ideas to add to this, or even to see it with a few colours changed, let me know.

Blasphemer! That's like taping a paint by number over an original Picasso! j/k

I do agree, the postediting on the 'midwest' looking picture is a bit tacky. But, that's just me
