As I said in the other thread I made a road trip just to hopefully get a good pic for the 2012 slideshow. I have the 2011 saved on my desktop and watch it often. It makes me sad my car isn't in it.

You aren't going to let all that 93 octane gas i burnt on that 850 mile road trip go to waste are you Bill?

I would like to Thank everyone for their support, I do enjoy doing the slideshows, It appears that everyone that has seen one of them really like my effort, I will give this some more thought as to weather I will be doing a 2012 slideshow, If I do decide to do another show it will be posted in the General section as to where to send the pictures and your info.
Again, Thanks everyone for your support.
Mr.Bill

Being rather new to the forum I was hoping to put my car in next year. Great job keep it up and if you want to post a few video's that you have done we all like those too. Good luck with this

I am confused as to why the decision to sticky vs no sticky should be any different for 2012. What rule or principal is suddenly being violated by allowing the slideshow to be a sticky? C'mon, whats the harm done versus entertainment value?. ... Not to mention Mr Bill's hard work and dedication to the project/forum.

Mr Bill: Let it go. War's over, man. CF dropped the big one.
ROUTEMAN007: What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
CatCam: Germans?
Mr. Bill: Forget it, he's rolling.
ROUTEMAN007: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough... [thinks hard of something to say] The tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go!

Save the Slideshow!

- Perhaps if the slideshow was sponsored by a forum vendor, the mods would let it stay a sticky.

Just sayin' since we know who pays the bills around here...

Well I must admit as well that I have yet to hear of this slideshow.
BUT...
I am interested and I would like to see Mr. Bill's slideshow become a permanent thing.
