    The photos look great Chris, lot's of things I can work on and use.
    One little problem is that I have to register with Yahoo to download them, and there is no way I'm gonna do that regarding their terms etc.

    It's a pity that more and more people are getting shackled in this way by big corporations, who want as much of your personal info that they can (legally or not so legally) gather before you can have the 'privilege' of using their services. Bah!

    As long as you don't need the original size, you can use Windows' snipping tool.

    I believe you need to register only if you want to download one specific picture. I could download the entire album (.ZIP 210 Mo) without registering.

    By the way, very nice work done ! It is already one of the most beautiful tracks for rF2.

    Getting the tarmac tighter, and more tree work which hopefully will look ok for the early summer.

    THANKS - I keep bubling up new work on this and it's great to hear comments on it, and great to work on it!

    I'm continually giving it my best shot to try and improve things. Sometimes it works out ok. ;)

    Don't hesitate to package-up and release an update. As long as you note that it is incremental improvements, those who don't care can skip it. Those of us who enjoy seeing the implementation of the improvements you are making can i) enjoy, and, ii) give you some better feedback based on seeing it in action rather than just screenshots :)

    Thanks,

    Marc

    I'm planning on being back at the track Sunday. I'll see what more pics I can get. Weather is going to be cloudy so again not much on the color side

    Point taken Marc. I do tend to hold back until I'm happy with the results - which is never!
    I will get a new pack together soon though.

    Chris's photo's have been really helpful, so I'm looking forward to his upcoming new photo work at the track (thanks mate)!

    I'll try and pack something up in the meantime.

    Thanks

    Davidd

    ps - nice to see you Luc (SLN) - it's been a long time! ;)

    Hey man, I was going to re-do the verges, because I didn't like how they turned out, but never got around to it. I learned a new technique when doing barber, so I can re-do those of you want.

    Thanks Alex - this would be a great improvement if you could do this. I've struggled to get the edges looking anywhere near looking ok, fudging things at best.
    Good timing as well as for getting a new update finished and on the shelf!

    Cheers
