I'm moving my website to register1 so I've got lots more space now. I've added in some more photos, some wallpapers and am adding a photoshop tutorial section...

Oooh and there's an image randomiser on the home page so it looks different each time you visit

I like it, the backgrounds are very good and don't detract at all like some do.
Only thing for me is I can't read the tiny dark blue on the black on the homepage. Light blue is not bad but the dark I can't make out.

I've always been a big fan of your website, where do you find those backgrounds?

I showed your site to a lad at my work who is just doing up a campervan and he loved it!

Will we see you at Volksfest near Bristol on sunday? Let me know if you are going, we should meet up.

Thanks, I'll have a play with the text and see what I can come up with.

Thanks Ben, really appreciate the comments The backgrounds were all sourced from free use sites, some have then been modded in potatoshop. Would love to meet up sometime but unfortunatley I can't do Bristol. Looks like it will be a good show though, there are a few Hot Rods going too

There's a good chance that may happen I would say!

Famously one of the big VW shows went bankrupt in '96 as it clashed with the England Germany game. No one showed up and the organisers had flown drag cars over from the USA, there wasn't any money to fly the cars back and all hell broke out. Alot of people were owed money and death threats were made against the organisers. One of them had to change his name from Paul to Josh. He then mysteriously turned up on Big Brother so he obviously thought he was safe by then
