Default Would you like your small Ford in a screensaver ?

I know of at least one person who has done this for another group of cars. Just wondering if anyone on the forums would be interested in having their favourite picture of their pride and joy put in a screen saver which i will be making, and putting on my site for downloading.

If you have a Fiesta/Ka/Focus/Escort/small Ford of any type and would like it put in the screensaver, please send me a couple of your favourite pictures to mrcrackers@gmail.com and i will compile the screensaver. Please also note i will be by default airbrushing out all registration plates unless you tell me you want yours left on. Also please let me know if you'd like your AFF Alias put on the picture.

I'm looking at getting as many pics as possible, to make it last a while!

Anyone interested ?

If you want to include medium sized Euro Fords then I can dig up some shots of my old Mondeo ST24 (which I sold last year).

I'll have a mockup of the 12 cars i've received so far by tonight or tomorrow, but i'd prefer to release the final version when i have a registered version of the software i'm using. Having said that the only thing the unregistered version does is when you move the mouse to cancel the saver, it pops up a message saying to register "YES" or "NO". If everyone can get past that then i'm happy to release it earlier.

The only thing that's taking time is resizing, airbrushing rego's & reg stickers out and making some colour adjustments to some of the pics.

If people want to test a copy of the unregistered version, and are happy with clicking the "NO" button when the saver is cancelled, then there should be a first release of the AFF screensaver available to download from my signature by early next week.

Ok i've got a full registered version of the screensaver now. Just one catch, i've lost a lot of pictures due to my old laptop (where i started the projects) crapping itself, so i had to start from scratch :(

It will take me a while to go through my emails and re-edit all the photos.. so far only the following people feature:

AdzELxr
crannersEL
davro_xr6
Deadman
fantz
fiery
Full Noise
john_xr6
Juiceman
Mitch_lx
MRFIESTA
superpursuit83
XR6_Gal
XR8fela
zetec20

Still got the BF XR in there too.. might leave it in, add some nice pics of the new car tomorrow.

Please remember to UNINSTALL ANY PREVIOUS COPIES OF THE SCREENSAVER prior to installing this one. If there are any issues please contact me, otherwise enjoy. Next update will be done when i have a few more people send their pics. This version of the screensaver is cancelled only when a keyboard or mouse button is pressed.
