I am as surprised as anyone :o

The dashed are quite different, I would love to have a dash done by 'black02ss' to replace my standard dashboard, they simply just look AWESOME :!:

Mine is just a "show me a load of numbers" approach (although there was some aesthetic consideration, but lets face it, I'm no artist).

Should be very interesting as the week progresses.

The contest is long... I would be very :shock: if you didn't win :!:

If you feel like doing one with all the gauges on my effort, I'd be a definite convert. Would just be had to fit them all in, and make it look as cool as yours already do.

I'll see what I can't some up with for ya! Got a theme or certain idea of what you are looking for?

My car is a Holden Commodore, so I guess it would be cool to have that as a background. Holden (http://www.holden.com.au/) often have some good backgrounds you could work your magic on. Looking at your other efforts you don't have any problem with the artistic elements. You're not in the design/graphics industry by trade are you?

I just can't imagine getting all the information on a single page while still looking any good.

LOL, actually, I have no computer certs or anything. I am a Fire Specialist Supervisor for the local DaimlerChrysler plant. One plus on with my job is I get to see all the new DaimlerChrysler vehicles before they are released and get to hear what a POS some of them are. :) I work midnights so I'll see what I can't come up with tonight. Do you have any pics of your car itself? If not, what color is it?

Wow, that is a surprise. I was fully expecting you to say something like "yeah, I am actually the lead graphic artist for <insert large advertising agency in the US>, and I work on the Coke account".

Just had a quick look, can't find any good pictures, that is a said statement. Will have to clean it and go and get some good pictures.

So I guess it comes down to colour... My car is red (how common of me).

I really appreciate this...

Cheers.

Not a problem at all! Let me see if I can't find some Red Holden pics. Anything else that you would like as well??

Just had a look at LS1TECH again, we are even again...

It appears that this contest is over, according to posts on LS1TECH. Isn't it supposed to run through to the 3rd July (1 week)?
