This is the 'spy' video taken at the 'Ring when the car was still camouflaged. I'm sure this was pulled from a lot of sites...

Is there a picture thread for the Evora's? If not, lets make one! Any owners fancy posting up some pics?

I'll be posting plenty when I pick mine up

Hello @ all,

as soon as my red canyon Evora is here (first half of June 2010) I will post a picture or even two...

Greetings from Germany,

Alexander

[bingoking]

Mine will be added next week.

Okay to get this started instead of a lot of promises. Remember there is also the Garage section as well if anybody needs to see a particular colour. (This is Aquamarine)

Dozens more but enough I think

Very nice Al

[RJB]

Beautiful Alan - lovely scenery too!

[Al]

Thanks. The location is on the A93 around Balmoral somewhere last October in early Autumn obviously.

This road is on our suggested route for the 1st August run out for the Scottish section if any of our Southern (i.e. borders and further!) cousins fancy a weekend away in lovely scenery withlovely roads. Come and join us. I'm sure the Scottish contingent will come up wth plenty suggestions for hotels and other things to do etc.

how do I post pics?

[Justin182]

Have you got a photobucket account?

Looks great Al!

These ones from PH made me look more into Evoras..

[Bibs]

how do I post pics?

In the 'Forum Info & Help' section there's a pinned topic called 'how to post pics' which will help.

I tired too, but after reducing pics to "microscopic", there is still "this file was too big to upload"... A.

[Justin182]

Try uploading them to a photobucket account. Much simpler!

A useful tool if using a PC on XP is Google Microsoft Powertools. (I can't give you a link from here I'm afraid as it sees I am in Brazil at the moment and blocks me in English sites) In there, there are lots of useful accessories. Image reszier or similar is a quick download. If you then open a picture in a folder (or click on dozens) and then right click you will have an option for "Resize Pictures" near the top. Click this and you will get 4 options of resize. Click again and they appear in the folder with the size in the title and do not touch the original. The ones I posted were all using "Small" about 5Mb each and reduced to 70kb or something with little discernable loss. Ideal for e-mails hence our company instruction to use this as we send in photos a lot professionally of bits of broken ship..... lots of broken bits!

Does this not cause problems later? When they eventually get deleted or moved then threads are useless. Witness quite a few older ones when you look back. Okay if a thread that was topical only for a while but not so much if technical reference or something like this. (Also small point that I'll have to work out what to do to open an a/c - old fart can't be bothered learning syndrome)

[Justin182]

That Burnt Orange looks great!

Al – Not really, only if you move them around in the Photobucket account. If you upload them to an ‘Evora’ folder, and leave them there, the links to the pics will stay the same..

Some others I’ve been sent

Chrome Orange

Burnt Orange (not great pics)

Persian Blue -

[anubis1]

tryed again... message: "used 990 K of your 1000K global upload quota" ... I'd better drive Evora than download pictures. A.

[Justin182]

Both look cracking! ^

RJB - Did you have your one detailed? Did I see it on DW?
