The Member Write Ups on this site have taken a little bit of a back seat for a while now, but we are now planning on getting them up and running once again. For those of you who haven't been on the site for long I'll just briefly explain what happens here.

What will happen is that every two weeks a member will be picked at random from those who have said they wish to do this, and you will be required to take pictures of your car what ever the weather is. Lots of shots of your car to post up and maybe also a short description on it.

You must only take the photo's the week you are asked... what ever the weather is. We can then see how the pictures develop through the seasons and how people take pictures in the sun/dark/gloomy/rain/snow.

You will also need to do a short write-up as well. Basically giving a short description about yourself, your interests etc. Also writing a bit about your car, how you've found it, what your dealership experience has been like, any modifications you've made etc.

There were quite a few people who weren't drawn out of the hat the first time we did this:

FiestaRS
ben_st
Nick02
Andytran
LegEnd
Si_Had
Tony
DeKris
Jonno
Steve1981
STozz
Calv_st
Micky
TheMinstrel
Richt
Fordie
LizzyG
Scooby626
iDan
Julie
Stifler
Jo
linco23
gnasher
Ste
ESS_TEE
daddyp

If anyone else is interested in this idea then please just add your name to this thread and then I can add your name to the draw.

It will be a completely random selection, and the next draw will take place on the 1st of October.

Regards

Chris

Right...

Unfortunately Gnasher is unable to do the write-up, due to lack of time at the moment, so I've just gone and drawn a new name out of the hat. The next name picked out is...

Fordie

o.O that will be interesting!!! I bet Amanda will do a good one...

I'll add a Global Announcement about if anyone wants to be taken out... the whole point is not to spend 8 hours cleaning your car and waiting for a sunny day.

It's about creating your own shoot... Make use of nature... keep your car dirty and use some run down areas for a shoot... make it look Rally Style... Do anything!!!

Take photos of your car stuck in traffic in a city... anything and everything!!! I'm going to try my best to think of a great idea when it's my turn... at least i have my car lol... would have been quite funny me doing it when my car was 150 miles away last year!!!

Hi Amanda, it would be good if you could get it done in a couple of weeks, but if it's takes a bit longer with the problems you've got with your car at the moment then thats fine, no trouble at all.

I'm sure it will be a good one when it comes, especially with some of the scenery that there is around here.

Next Monday will be fine.

With regards to what to put... obviously some description of where you've taken your photos, and maybe why you've chosen those locations. Then after that... it's up to yourself, but just as a few suggestions... in some of the previous ones the main points have been a little bit about yourself, and your interests etc. Also, a bit about your ST, how you find it, what your experience has been like with your dealer, and about any mods that you've made.

The write up is entirely how you want to do it...

The best choice is to set a date... and no matter what the weather... sunny or rainy... go the shoot and work with the conditions!!!

I look forwards to it Amanada

There's no bullet points Amanda, just follow your heart.

Maybe something like this...

Since you first bought your , the difference it has made to your life etc.

Hey, you would'nt be reading this otherwise .

ok well aparently my car is sorted now. Dad says it should be fine. It has sat a week while i was on holiday and it decided it wanted to not start this morning and have a sulk, it wasn't even trying at all, just made a tiny whirr. so i had to get a lift to work. anyways dad says its sorted now - its wouldnt start for him either, then it was only firing on one cylinder, then it decided to start, so hopefully it should be ok tomorow. Funny thing is my mams car was dead this morning too...

i have started my write up and i think ive ot a bit carried away, ive wrote loads, maybe too much? ive wrote about myself, how id decided on the ST, ordering and delivery of it (why i refused to accept it etc), what i think of it now ive had it, what i think of my local dealership, future plans for the car etc. it will take people ages to read it all. does that matter, should i cut it shorter?? I really can't stress how long it is! lol

Right...

We were planning on doing a special draw at the Christmas Event. Unfortunately with everything else that was going on that weekend it got completely forgotten about.

But with it now being the 1st of the month, as well as new year, I've just drew another name out and I know that this person will enjoy doing it.

Micky, you'd best get cracking at getting some nice photos for it as you're next.

Then... get it really dirty and take some pics down a mud track... Rally Style!

I washed 3 cars yesterday which only took me around 50mins in total... I love pressure washers, they make life so much easier.

Louise was pressure washing and I was sponging the cars down... team work!

I'm sure you will help out a little Kev.

Just on another note, here's a list of the members that are still in the draw:

LegEnd
ben_st
V1ctoria
Nick02
iDan
Richt
Stifler
Fabrix
Ste
Tony
Scooby626
Calv_st
TheMinstrel
DeKris
zenicman1
JB6
JJST
Jo
LizzyG
linco23
Si_Had
Andytran
Niburu
FiestaRS
ESS_TEE
fluffy_sheep2
gnasher
STozz
Jonno

I haven't asked for a while, but just to remind people as to what happens, every two weeks a member is picked at random from those who have said they wish to do this, and you will be required to take pictures of your car what ever the weather is. Lots of shots of your car to post up and maybe also a short description on it.

You must only take the photo's the week you are asked... what ever the weather is. We can then see how the pictures develop through the seasons and how people take pictures in the sun/dark/gloomy/rain/snow.

You will also need to do a short write-up as well. Basically giving a short description about yourself, your interests etc. Also writing a bit about your car, how you've found it, what your dealership experience has been like, any modifications you've made etc. Basically though it's up to yourself as to what you wish to write though and can be as short as long as you like.

If anyone else is interested in doing this who isn't in that list above then please just add your name to this thread and then I can add your name to the draw.

It is a completely random selection, and the next draw will take place on the 1st of February.

Regards

Chris

Right... unfortunately Julie is unable to do her write-up at the present time, so another name has come out the hat and it is...

Tony.

You'd best get some more good pictures for us!!

Just to give a little insight and to show that it is all done fairly, here's a picture of how it's done:



It's done electronically, I just press the button to randomly shuffle the names up, and whoever comes to the top is picked out.

If it's snowy then so be it, good to hear that you'll do it no matter what it's like. It would really good to see some in different conditions.

Who cares, use the dirt to your advantage... I see loads and loads of cleaned and polished car photos on this site but the most interesting ones are those that are natural and use the landscape or surroundings and the car in it's natural state...

There was a few pics in black and white of the ST in the snow... these are really nice pics imo... but any thing would be good to see how that sort of setting can or could be used.

Obviously shiny does look nice, but I know what you mean about it sometimes being more interesting having pictures in the dirt. This I think is one of my favourite shots I've taken of mine and it's anything but clean:

Lets hope do a U-turn and bring the out in 4x4 Chris... you'd have no problem then... I don't think 300bhp is going to be much use otherwise in conditions like that!

Just to show what sort of things you could do...

This is Chris's car simply parked in a field with a light on it



This is my car in the fog with it's hazard lights and fogs on



Just to show it can even be done on your driveway with a bit of an arty shot.

Lol, I'm not sure even a 4x4 would get you through that! That amount of snow was crazy, especially the way it seemed to come along all of a sudden as well. It was snowing lightly on and off all morning and then just went BANG and put down a foot and a half of snow in about an hour. I was still at school at the time and it was quite good since I got nearly a week off because of that.

People I work with have told me tales about what happenned there. Some had no choice but to literally live there for a couple of days as they couldn't get home. Someone else who had a 4x4 did manage to give a few people a lift as far as Whitehaven, 10 miles away, which was where it was worst and then had to give up as they couldn't get any further - and even that had took him 8/9 hours to do! Crazy.

Wow, was a long time ago now - even though it doesn't seem like it. For those who won't know, that was taken at this site's very first ever event back in 2005. You can see all the water on the side of my car, and it was pouring down that day at a campsite in the middle of the Cotswolds. A brilliant time though.

Mr Chris is the operator for this.

Hopefully Vicky will get a write up done and some pics shortly.

I think another name should be picked

There will be a new name picked very soon. Vicky has done her write-up and has promised me that she will try and get her pictures taken this week.

I'll pick out a name this weekend which will be the midle of the month.

Yes, I've PM'd him although he hasn't seen my PM yet. Jimmy, he hasn't posted for a couple of months, but he did log in last week. I'm sure he'll see it, just give a day or two.

If he doesn't view they you can always pull up his profile and e-mail him to see.

Whaayyyy!! No problem, will get on this as soon as I can! Timing is all off though, the sun was shining up until today and now its raining, followed by more rain, which apparently, will be followed by a splattering of more rain. Hope you all like dull photo's ......
BTW - how do I insert pics into the post rather than having them as attachments?

That is one of the great things about these write ups. Mine was done on a bloody cold rainy cloudy day. You can get some really great pics regardless of the waether

If you have trouble uploading pics email them to kite_nutter2003@yahoo.com and i'll up load them for you.

You don't have to clean it. I din't lol. the write ups are so you can show off more of your car and let us know more about you. Like i said above pics in the rain are no problem and neither is having a dirt car.

Go and have a shave Craig.

On a serious note, it was said that we would like peoples write-ups to have all of the seasons incorporated in the pics; but i know what you mean, it is sooooo hard to post a pic up of your in a sorry, dirty state.

Looking foreward to reading your write-up and viewing a nice clean .
