Yeah we definitely could do with some more.
The key to a usable photo is that it needs to be a very 'wide' shot and I mean wide in the photographic sense, with the car being small in the shot with lots of background. 95% of photos most people have of their car are no use.
I have to make them up by shrinking the car to fit height wise and then making / cloning extra background artificially to fill the rest of the width. The more background around the car gives me more to play with. If I have too little scenery to work with it looks artificial.

@nutnutwelshman I reckon that last picture would look ace on the banner!
Im a huge fan of that shot...........
The irony of course being: Kev posts 100's of pics of his cars at his playground......and now might make the cover shot with his car parked-up in a "car-park" in Essex

Ha! Don't worry mate, it's for us design geeks to get things right if we can.
Kinda the equivalent of me climbing in your cab and you telling me to back it round a corner. I wouldn't have a clue!

Guys, while we are on it, i think you could get away with a deeper header graphic. It would open up much more possibilities for the header image and it wouldn't affect the user image as it's a forum so the first thing anyone does when they get to a page is to scroll down.
Just a thought.

Cool, thanks Nik!
How's this one??
It's not that wide, but it's fairly dark so I imagine it could be faded to stretch?
I'll keep in mind for any future pictures to take a few from a longer distance
I reckon you could make that work mate. It just needs a bit of cloning to the left to stretch it out full width. Would look bloody good on the banner.
These any good? I do have more but not in front of my desktop with the rest...
