    what's the point of keeping so much moovies on your hdd

    you can burn them on dvd and watch it on the tv, that's what i'd do

    Well, for car nuts, it's easily understandable... If you'd like we can stop sharing all the fabulous pictures...

    Even if you were to pay for the pics, you probably couldn't share them here on UCP without legal ramifications due to copyright laws and distribution restrictions.

    Moreso than anything else I post? Doubtful. I take great risks in providing for my people!

    matt i have a question. How many times do you look back upon your images? or do you just keep adding to them.

    I can't speak for Matt, but as I have a number of images approaching his, I'll comment anyway... I look back through mine with some regularity, for enjoyment as well as for reference... I'd say a browse a given car or manufacturer at least once a week...

    Well, I could say why do you waist your time posting on a automotive forum? Nevermore, I share them with automotive enthusiasts, my screensaver randomly scans my "My Pictures" folder and displays them (not just automotive), so my LCD screen is a nice "art piece". It's a hobby.

    Same, but more frequently.

    This shows once again why UCP is such a special place.There must be something like a 100,000 pictures in the main page, hide-out, Henk's odd-ball corner, etc. combined (I have no idea of actual number, so I'm just guessing ). All of them are organised, with additional comments or press releases...And all of this is for free!

    Big CHEERS to the group behind it!

    I'm sure it's more. I estimate there to be 40-50,000 in the hideout alone. I've posted nearly 23,000 myself.
