Not sure; but I know Gimp can, and that's free.

Photoshop CS2 is a free download that will work.

Just did what you did. No problems for me. Maybe a corrupt download. Try again.

Something to get in the mood for Season 8. I'll miss the reverse grid mayhem that we enjoyed for season 6! Those were the days...

 

[Caramidaru Andrei Bogdan]

Nvm, resolved the problem. Thank you

 

[Nox]

Can anyone help me with the template from the rims? Thank you

Please use the Skins thread, thanks!

I have an interesting question for everyone, and nothing more than a creative idea @Andrew James. First, (again, just an idea for discussion, not asking/requesting anything) if we should have a few more sign ups for the league, would there be two separate servers? Maybe two separate conferences (example; server #1 conference and server #2 conference)? Then at the end of the five 5 rounds, we could take the top 14 drivers from each conference to square off in a championship finale @ lets say......... Nurburgring?

Now, my question for everyone. I know we could discuss car setups and helpful tips but I hope this one is OK to discuss. Because we are driving the Mini's (manual stick shift as per real life), will you be driving manual stick shift, paddle shifters, or sequential shifter and why? Personally, I will most likely be using my paddle shifters. I have been practicing with stick shift (grinding tranny mod) but after a short while my knees and my ankles begin to feel sore. So I started to be more gentle when engaging the clutch like how I drive my car in real life, but unlike driving the real thing, I end up missing shifts! I used to use my g27 shifter as a sequential shifter (spring mod, simply the use of two springs), but now I have been using my new wheel stand for almost a couple of months now, and the shifter is lower than how it was before on my old wheel stand. So having a low shifter position is perfect for stick shift but not ideal for sequential shifting, and that is why I am using my paddle shifters (but I love and miss sequential shifting). Also, I cannot heel and toe for the life of me!

@Dean Solomon an interesting idea, but experience tells me a few people will drop out, so who knows who many will be running at the end. It might be something to consider for any future leagues though, thanks for the idea!

Also, I will be using paddle shifter as that is all I have. ABS will also be available in the league, on low (just as the real minis have)
