Can we add to the Wallpaper gallery? If so, how? Also, are there going to be any new commercials? Those have not changed since I joined the club.

If you have suggestions for new wallapers, I can add them.

Also I do have plans to add more movies to our site, but I haven't gotten to it yet. Hopefully soon though. Apparently the webmaster of the Houston VW Club is a little upset that we too are hosting VW commercials on our site. Herb and I have decided to continue to post the movies, since the HVWC doesn't own the rights to them anyways.

Do you have any preferences for commercials to see?

Commercials

I'd like to see all of them but I think one or two new ones a month would be good. As for wallpaper I'd like to submit some sometime that I designed so when I create it I'll send it to you.

It's true that the Houston club doesn't own the rights to these movies . . . but they ARE apparently the ones that got them into the format we now have them in.  We didn't "steal them" from their site, but I have a strange feeling that the person who furnished them to us did.  I don't think they are upset that we hosting VW commercials . . . it sounds like they are upset because we took their content without permission and re-published it without even giving credit as to where it came from.  Again, they don't "own" these commercials . . . but how would we feel if the shoe were on the other foot?

I suggest that we discuss this topic further in our club members only section. :-k

Russ, here is my first wallpaper design. It is one I did several years ago. If you think it is worth posting feel free, if not I won't get my feelings hurt.

I did this one for the VolksFolks News and thought why not go ahead and make it available for wallpaper.
Don't know if I'm doing these in the right size or not. It is 72dpi, but I don't know if the dimensions are correct. Feel free to manipulate it.

Here's the link:

Russ,

Here's a picture that from the Birmingham show that I am using for wallpaper.  This one is re-sized, but there's a 1600 X 1200 version in the gallery.  If you decide to put it on the web site, give the photo credit to Will Hendricks.
