you might think i'm an idiot for asking this... but are you the guy who makes crazy detailed models on sc.net?

if not, just ignore me

a lil quick google search revealed..yes it is him.

compare links in his sig to the one he posted

oh..imagestation sucks.

yeah that's me

here's my $4,000 F40 model

anyone like my car pics?

that thing is fucking incredible. make a thread dedicated to it, in like alt. binaries or something. i'm not sure what category it would go in, but it definitely needs a thread.

i'd like to see em.

alright

what's wrong? do you not have an account at imagestation?

hey I put it in the car garage

You have enough for a 5 grand model, but not enough for web hosting? I say this 'cause ImageStations is a pain in the ass.

im a cheap bastard.

i had a killer photo album in the user galleries of fast-autos.net but he took them all down

say i decided to pay for web hosting, what would you recommend?
and how expensive is it, what amount of storage, etc

u mean that ferrari didn't come with webhosting? damn you get ripped off.

The pictures are ok in small bursts, but all together its a mess. Feels like you just snapped as many as you could and just uploaded them all. I'd normally just pick out a few good ones and post those. I wouldn't expect too many comments/critiques on your pictures because its really difficult to say anything specific about thousands of images.

Made2own is a good host (the one that hosts this board, I believe). I also use it.

I'm hosted with HostRocket.com. You can find cheaper, but they have some damn good support.

1000 MB storage and 50 GB bandwidth a month for about $12/mo (depending on how far you pay in advance).

I love 'em to death and haven't had a single problem with them.

As for a domain, I suggest GoDaddy.com instead of getting from HR. It's cheaper.

On a side note, if you do go with them, let me know. I do get $ for referrin' people. Even if they didn't do that, I'd still recommend 'em though.


Then, once you have some hosting, I'd install Gallery or something and set up something like mine:

http://gallery.viper007bond.com/

I remeber SupercarFreak, I've always hated him because he spended so much money on models.

i can understand what you mean. my gallery on fast-autos.net was awesome, i had it organized by make and model, with my favorite pics of each car...

thanks for the info man, im new to this stuff. would it be possible for me to obtain a domain name like www.supercarfreak.net or something? if so how much would that cost?

check that domain site he just sent u
i''ve registered both my sites under http://www.namecheap.com and it costs me $8.88 a year..

i also highly recommend a program called 'express thumbnail creator'..its an amazing program in which u can create thumbnails for ur pictures (fully customized from size, borders, shadows blah blah) and even does the HTML for ur galleries for u...i love the program to death..it will resize ur originals if u want as well..it sets up ur gallery..open in new window..open in same window..navaigation bar blah blah..u'll thank me when u get it

I prefer Gallery myself. It has cool stuff like slideshows:

http://gallery.viper007bond.com/slideshow....ortlandAutoShow

supercarfreak .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz and .us are all available.

I use GoDaddy.com as do many of my friends. Price depends on the .whatever. Check their site:

www.GoDaddy.com

cool beans.

i registered supercarfreak.net for 5 years for $90 with godaddy

you can tell hostrocket i was referred by you
i gave them $316 for 2 years of 50gb bandwidth/mnth and 1000mb storage

viper, you should go in togther with a few people and get your own server.

i keep a server with 800hosting.com and they give me 400GB transfer/month for 99/month. 40 gig drive, half gig ram....it's all good stuff and of course godaddy is great for domain stuff....heck, they're 4 mins from my house. nice folks!

Can I have some money?

-Jesse

You should see the house him and his brother got from his parents, he has a beech house bigger and nicer then my house also.

well my site is under way
here's the gallery for now
http://www.supercarfreak.net/gallery/albums.php

So did you go with HostRocket or did you decide to go with someone else?

godaddy for the domain and hostrocket for hosting, tell them you referred me man!~!!1

Actually, I was just about to say send in a TT for me and say that I referred you (Alex Mills - Viper007Bond.com).

You might want to put up a front page for the site.

yeah we're working on it, this is my friend's design (quite a few typos)
yes that's me in the red M3

I've seen those wheels/brakes before... I think it was on a Ferrari 355. Do you have the picture?

yeah i stole them from that pic,
hard to see but I turned the Mov-it logo into brembo,
turned the ferrari centers into bmw centers,
brother took a pic of me at an autoshow sitting in a blue m3 cab, so i put myself into the coupe

did i do a clean job or what? cracked up my parents when i showed 'em it

full size

Front rim is WAY off center.
