Yes I do. And you know I usually have some criticism when pics win because of the car and not the photo. But I like this photo because the scenery is very nice. It's not a hard shot to take, but it's good anyway.

I have entered at least one pic with my car covered in snow.... (Remember the Civic rule, it does not need to be a supercar to get a good picture. Winter offers some special opportunities.

I hope you do remember to follow the rules accordingly:

• Your image must be a resolution of 800x600 or lower. If it is not, your picture will not be in the voting thread.

[PininfarinaPIMP]

Yeah, i know the ****ing rules, ive just got the problem of resizing it, its all new software to me. We never used the resizing tool at college...

[Rebirth of Xar]

Yeah, i know the ****ing rules, ive just got the problem of resizing it, its all new software to me. We never used the resizing tool at college...just go to imageshack.us and upload your image to it. then save the image it gives you and upload that, itll be resized to meet specifications.

[PininfarinaPIMP]

If you work with windows XP you may have the programme Office Picture Manager. It allows you to resize anything you want,

[Cotterik]

PininfarinaPIMP use microsoft paint to resize your photo to 800x600 or i cant enter it
