    when you made it a little larger, it lost it's resolution and doesn't look as decent...

    Cute, I like it! Now, 'we' were reprimanded for using Bill's picture in Photoshop projects, right? Because I would love to see him behind the wheel of that patriotic car.

    you'll have to do a poll :lol: I vote to bring back the coffee-robot!!!

    maybe it's me or it just looks cluttered, and the coffee-robot blends in too well with the red/white on the flag...

    It'll work Jack - I'm just messin.

    If you decide to play around with it more, try to add a slight drop shadow to the robot to see how that looks....

    Okay - sorry to have hijacked this.

    Jennifer, I think you car is pretty neat in Black. After seeing yours and Tracy's car, I'd actually consider black in my next vehicle.

    Thanks! I think the Prius looks quite sleek in black. I've always had a thing for black vehicles anyways, so it was pretty much a given that I'd end up with black (although I was definitely considering Seaside Pearl too). It looks sexy in red too.

    I like rancid, but I do so miss the Dancing Napolean avatar you had for awhile. Can you bring him back just for the weekend to let him dance for your new car?

    (Congrats btw!)

    Thats sort of like thinking mystery squid is a chick, or windstrings starred in Young Frankenstein based on their current avatars.

    Of course, I still imagine you looking like Zapp Brannigan. That's different. Don't spoil it for us.

    Geez, why don't you snap those silly trim rings off?

    I now estimate that there are more than 100,000 unused, useless, non-aerodynamic, ridiculous trim rings sitting in garages all over the world. Can't we beat them into little plastic plowshares or something?

    I've thought about it. I think I might actually like them though. :blink:

    I'm with you. I popped one off and thought the wheel looked better with it on.

    I agree. Some things are better left to the imagination. For instance, most people I know look waay better with their clothes *on*, which, sadly, is quite different from my earliest recollections.

    As for my own avatar, well, only parts of me look anything like a horse... :p

    No. Now if he did the entire Napoleon dance, I totally would. But the clip is like 3-4 seconds long and just keeps looping and gets annoying after 20 seconds.

    How do you get them off? I did a brief search on here yesterday but then got a bunch of work that needed to be done and never did find out how to remove the trim rings, nor could I find any before/after trim ring removal pictures to check out the difference.

    It takes one sec. each! Just put the tip of your index finger inside the ring at almost any point and pop it toward yourself.
