I'm new to SoCal. Where do you all have your meets? I dont have my car right now (left it back home in Texas) but I'll be getting it by the end of the month. How often do you all meet up? What do you all do? And, is anyone invited?

Thanks for the info!

Nice pics! I just wonder why there are more meets down in Socal then in Norcal...

Because someone up there should start planning things more often then. I know I saw a thread about the D&B meets... not sure how often that happens. But someone needs to take inititive to have meets going... start one up HaloX, Have people in the North notice the thread, and people will go!! :)

You could also check the Torrance meet 6/4/05 thread. I posted some more pics there of these cars and more. Silly girl, there is a pic of the grey. I have some more at home that I took at a night meet in Tustin. Don't know whether I posted them in the OC weekly thread or not, but pm me and I can send you more if needed.....

Regarding more meets in Socal than Nocal...probably a couple of reasons...number of 8's, number of 7's, road conditions and numerous "drive/cruise" options, weather....well, its probably just numbers.

Generally the meets are just the usual meet and greet type and people get bored with them after awhile. I'm surprised the OC weekly meets still go on as they are just the usual meet and greets. (correct me if im wrong here) But on the planning side, I go on mountain runs on the weekends so that is just enough for me. ;)

You know what I just noticed....you got over 1200 views on this post (probably because you put "so cal" in the title) and the pics are crap j/k. Next time I come to a meet to take pics...I'm gonna post in a separate thread...so I can get more love. It seems that all the pics I have posted in the past get lost in the huge threads they are in and the only ones that see them are those that attended. Made me jealous, 1200 views...but great idea.

What can I say Keith! I'm a marketing post whore! Quick question though..how come your pix always come out somewhat pixelated? Is it cause the resolution was taken down so much?

The pics when I download them directly to my computer at home from the camera are above 500...and the posting limit is 100. So I am force to take the pics into Microsoft Paint and reduce them to around 45% to get them under 100. You should see the pics on my computer....just amazing.....

On a related note, my pics looked better about a month ago, when the file size could be 200....but the change to 100 which occured about the same time as the email notification went down, makes the pictures almost worthless in posting. But still, putting up something is better than nothing.

I've seen some people put up recent posts and they are able to get a bigger picture posted in their reply (without the thumbnails)...I'm still trying to figure out how to do that, and maybe if the file size could be bigger.

I can always email you pics at full resolution if there is one you like. I have them all saved in folders based on the event/date they were taken...sorry for the long reply to your short question...:)

Get Batchit Ultra from www.download.com...

I've been shrinking files down to 55kb or less and they still look good.

Or you can use Photoshop and resize the image to whatever you want and go under file to "save for web..." and you can save a 1024x768 image in .JPG format for well under 100kb
