Ok, guys, been AWOL for a bit, was in Dallas without access to a computer over this past weekend.

Looks like Johnny made it in the nick of time. You've retained your point, Mr. Danger, but you need to supply us with a new challenge to continue. You may either edit your post containing your picture of the highly customized, removable hood ornament you placed on your car, or you may post separately your next challenge. We'll get things back on track.

Very tasteful, btw. Very.

Should someone count the points? That could motivate competitors...

Workin on it, ketsa. I've got to make sure I go through and count properly.

And Johnny's latest challenge sounds like an interesting one. Let's see what people come up with.

Here goes ... boxster with a mural (albeit a faded one) or graffiti in the background .

Some say it's an effigy of the Virgin Mary, while others believe it's the secret love child of Alice Cooper and Chaz Bono . Personally, I think it looks like one of my ex-mother-in-laws.

Easy...



Just found this thread, fun idea.

How about, A Boxster with a child seat, occupied or not. Lets see some family Porsches!

Hey hey! Another CT resident, awesome! Unless your first picture's playing some tricks on me, it looks like you've got your own challenge covered as well should the need arise, 986rgt. Is that the top of a child seat I'm seeing?

OK, folks, this post will be edited shortly with new point totals since we've got plenty of newcomers since the last one. Stand by...

EDIT: Allllllllll right, here are the current standings, full of new contenders, some of whom have managed to challenge and overtake what was originally a pretty soild, early lead!

The highest scores are listed first in descending order with a little gold/silver/bronze treatment, and any ties alphabetically from there:

ProjectM96: 7 points
Tommy986: 6 points
ketsa: 5 points
Mark_T: 2 points
Sasha055: 2 points
Spinnaker: 2 points
thstone: 2 points
tonycarreon: 2 points
986rgt: 1 point
Johnny_Danger: 1 point
Lobo1186: 1 point

It's a Knight on a horse, but I pretty sure this counts.

Next up: A Boxster next to a water fountain

Well, looks like no one hit up the casino in the last few days or has a pic on hand, so hopefully you've got one to post up in about the next six hours or so Highlow (Robo-Top) to meet the rules of the game.

Site problems?

Is it just me, or are all of the attached pictures in this thread gone?
(which would be sad, since, you know, it's a thread about pictures)

I see some, of the "embedded"variety, but the majority of the pictures stopped showing up for me.

The site was being maintained and upgraded last night. So I tried to log back in an hour later and it said "You have been banned from this site. When will the ban be lifted: NEVER"

So that was kind of funny. Then I was able to log in this morning with no problems, but I also noticed forum pictures changed around. And then this thread is reversed. Earliest post is on 1st page, latest post on last page. Now its unreversed itself when I refereshed the page.

Looks like you guys are right, I thought it was just the last few not showing up for me because of my work computer, but even Johnny Danger's color-matching hood ornament is gone.

I suspect that there was some update to the forum (I suddenly have a percentage status for my PM box after logging in today), so perhaps when the change(s) occured it wiped out some links/attachments?

I've been saving virtually all the pictures from this thread so far, but I didn't get these last ones yet...

Any mods out there who can chime in about this situation?
