Jalopnik!
Hey guys! So the news editor for Jalopnik contacted Kieran (enzokid) and I about the blue carbon Super Sport, and he wrote an article about it using our photos and my video that's posted here. Here's a link:

Yellow car contest pic
Hey guys, can someone upload this pic (below) for me since my uploader isn't working?
Send me a pm on Flickr and I'll set you up. Oh, and someone who wants to jack my account, don't try because it really isn't worth it. The worst you can do is write something inappropriate, which will then be removed..

Quality Control
Hey guys,
I'm not trying to be a d-bag or b**ch about this (even though it's going to come off like that), but I need to address this.
*A disclaimer, I am NOT saying go out and buy a nice DSLR, I'm just saying that the quality of pictures can be better. Also, I am not trying to take shots at anyone in particular.*
So when I first came on this site 2 years ago, I saw some amazing shots from everyone, not because the photogs had really nice cameras, but because they picked their best shots to upload and took time to actually pick/edit those shots.
Now, it seems like some people just throw up whatever the heck they want regardless of the rules, whether it's a cell phone shot that's blurry to pictures of cars INSIDE malls/shows. I saw a picture recently of half of a Panamera inside a mall, and after someone told him that it wasn't okay to post that, he posted 2 more pictures of a Bentley that isn't even that rare in the same mall. Doesn't this website stress street spots? YES. Another thing, if there isn't a category for the car you're going to upload, then why post it?
I am not saying that I'm perfect or anything because I DEFINITELY am not, but the quality of some people's shots here could improve, and hopefully you know who you are.

Trouble Uploading
Hey guys,
First off, I hope everyone had a safe, merry Christmas/Hannukah (sp?)/Kwanza...well, you get the point. Anyways, when I upload something, I get the file and click 'Send.' The little sending window pops up and then it stays grey. So I try to upload it again and it happens again, except there is a big blue error message below it. I hope this gets to an admin so they can correct it, or if anyone knows how to get through this, please let me know. Also, I have tried different pictures from different folders, and the pictures are in .jpg form.
Thanks a lot,
Drake

Views on pictures?/New Flickr
Hey guys,
So this is a really stupid question, but, how is it that some pictures have 30,000 views+? It seems like there have been only a few hundred members of this website. Whatever...just curious.
Also, I got a Flickr...DLMphotos, check it out.

Good photoshoot locations in SoCal
Hey guys, I need to scramble to find a location for a photoshoot with 7 Diablo 6.0s after a hotel (Pelican Hill) wanted to charge me $20,000 for a photoshoot. Crazy, I know.
Soooo, I need locations that are near Irvine, California. No hotels, please.
Any opinions are great!
Thanks,
Drake

Cars on this site
Hey guys. I'm not mentioning any names, but some people aren't posting "site-worthy" cars. I think that lots of Porsche categories should be eliminated, such as the 928, 944, Carreras, etc. They just aren't rare on the site. Also I think there should be a quality standard on this site. I really believe that no one thinks that a picture on this site should have a lady's face in the foreground (you can just crop it out! it takes 5 seconds!). But seriously, everyone should manage their photos and determine what is rare BASED ON SOME OF THE SITE'S PICTURES, not YOUR judgement. What could be rare in someplace may be as common as a Toyota in other places. I hope that this didn't come across as a rant, I am just mentioning a tiny problem.
