Does anyone have hi-res versions of those pictures?
Thx man! How did you do that? or where did you get them from?
I'm currently building a digital encyclopedia of cars for my son when he grows up (he's 3 at the minute but is already mad about them) so i've become fairly adept when its time to 'Google' for info / pics.
lol, I see.
I really want to get access to Aston Martin's media site. I've got access to many other car media sites, but Aston refused me...
Your lucky to have bagged access to the ones you have , so far i've tried and failed all but once (that was just for a press pass to the local Motorshow at the Birmingham NEC in '07). As i understand it they only let journalists who can prove their credentials have them , is that how you managed it ?
That said i'm more than happy with the vehicles featured here on UCP among other similar sites and although its nice to find the hires photos they're not that high on my priority list (especially since my sons encyclopedia stands at 76k worth of photos totalling just over 15gb).

Thanks for the pics
"Kimi, can you improve on your [race] finish?"
"No. My Finnish is fine; I am from Finland. Do you have any water?"
GM (which includes Saabs, Hummer, Chevrolet, Cadillac, and a lot more others), BMW, and Rolls Royce gives you free access. KTM will allow you access although you need to fill in a form.
But having a 15 gig encyclopedia of car pics is very very impressive! May I ask why you have this encyclopedia for your son?
It started out just to be a collection of photos to help with making 3D models prior to my son being born but by the age of around 2 he started taking an interest in watching Motorsport on TV with me as well as racing computer games (he's currently learning to play Race Driver 3 on my girlfriends PSP) and he'd quite happily sit looking thru my small library of car books i've picked up over time.
Seeing as today's youth are more attuned to having everything in digital media form it seemed like the next logical step to create him his own "little" library built from sources i could find on the web. He has his own PC now and when he doesn't feel like running around and playing he can sit and browse to his hearts content , before long he'll hopefully start reading the reviews himself too although its never a chore to read them to him.
I've posted some slightly higher resolutions of these pics in the Hideout.
Also due to ill health preventing me from doing my regular work it's become an enjoyable pastime for myself as well (hence the fact its kind of gotten out of hand and grown as large as it has ). Whilst i continue to have internet access i'll keep adding to it but as and when i don't there should be more than enough to keep him satisfied.
Currently i'm building up the histories of his two favourite marquee's Alfa Romeo and Ferrari , seems he's aquired a taste for classic's rather than modern. Who could blame him tho.
Indeed those photo's you added to the hideout are much better, nice find Roentgen.

That's really cool RSOWNER, I like how you have him a PC at such a young age and are encouraging him to read - how is he at going through the pictures and the like?
How lucky... I got my first computer 2 years ago, and your son got it when he is 2.
I've created a simple html based index so that he can navigate easily using IE , he just clicks on the thumbnail image of the car he wants to look at using the mouse the same way we do here on UCP.
The nursery he attends also has a pc for the children to take turns in playing activities on so he's had more than a fair chance to pick up the basics. That said we try to encourage him to be active more of the time than not , all things in moderation of course.
