    Just wondering, when you go to auto shows, do you go on press days or on the days when the show is open to the public? One thing that I could maybe do is take photos for the Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, which is usually in February. I want to make a strong contribution to this site, and maybe this could be it? Maybe one of the mods could let me know about this?

    Spastik Roach:
    Those programs can only rename batches of pictures, not specific images.

    L-mafia:
    Rob usually goes to the CIAS for us. We always visit on press day, the public days are way too crowded to get any good shots.
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    Just a small update: halted the renaming and went on to write the report, busy now on the first of two 100 shot slideshows.

    I can see why you would offer to shoot at CIAS, since we didn't do a feature on it this year. I went to the second of the two press days and found that there wasn't anything new that I hadn't already shot a month earlier in Detroit. So I still shot quite a few pics but we just saved them for individual car updates like the Phantom Corsair.

    The forums are a kind of freebie
    We get them with very few intermediate advertiser pages - you know the one that's susually for screensavers
    Clicking on the red highlughted words will help a little as he'll get a (tiny) fraction of a cent for each one.
    The MAIN UCP page has standard banner ads.

    Rob spent the last couple of days at the Meadowbrook Hall Concours d'Elegance, where he met up with forum members Matt and Nopassn. I for one am various anxious to see his work!! They had a special class for Bizzarinis and a whole concours dedicated to Italian cars. Expect to see a new report and slideshow up later this week. Better yet, keep an eye on the main page, because new updates might be added at a higher frequency than you are used to (with three in the last seven days).
