No problem! It's good way to keep the thread at the top of the "new posts" page. (Learned this trick from Tron Chief over at the DSOC.)

That would be me! I live in the area of Sheridan and 112th. Ordered through Schomp, a week 36 2010 build. Mine was the first 2010 to actually show up in Colorado. What's yours, so I can be on the lookout...

RJ, I love the Oxygen Blue. I really debated between Oxygen and Horizon Blue. That is a fantastic picture!

Thanks Lacy...this pic. was taken just a few weeks after I got her, she is now wearing Union Jack Side Scuttles and on the 19th she'll be Tinted. Then, on April 19th (Our 2nd Anniversary) she will be U-ified with a JCW Grill and the Chrome Line Exterior Lower Grill adornment!!

Stay tuned for more pics!!

I'd post but my pix are so huge I have trouble downloading them to this site. If someone can give me some Cliff Notes guidance on how to post, I will, but everytime I try error messages pop up and I simply give up and go do something else productive.

(my week 39 2008 build looks like yours except black top, stripes, ordinary wheels, offset front plate, and JCW badges and JCW exhaust tips that stick waaaaay out. burn my leg all the time but I dont care. )

Resize down to an acceptable size, like 1024x768 or even 800x600, and make sure it's a jpg and not a bmp...then upload. Hope to see it!

I've had trouble posting pics on here (don't know how folks get their huuuge pics, but I'm givin' it the ol' college try) before, too, sequence. But, here's my baby just before the MINIs Take the Beltway run back in November ... ahhh, yesss ... when the weather was mild, and the ryde was clean ... how I miss those days ...

Better not let my wife near your car! She looooves purple, and wanted us to get a purple MCS. BTW, it is (was) called Black Eye Purple up here.

The resizing is what gets me.... I mean I dont have photoshop or anything like that and am clueless here.

Then maybe I'll just upload pics to my Flickr account where resizing is not an issue.

LOL! Thanks! I can totally understand her 'purple passion', as I'm afflicted w/the same! I've noticed that everywhere else but the US called it Black-Eye Purple--wondered why it's PH here, but I like that name, as well ... evokes the Hendrix memories ...
