For the avatar, host a pic 150x150max somwhere and copy the link in the "link off-site avatar" field in the profile. Then no need to be less than 6kb.

You ought to either modify the front arms or straighten the front wheels before you take photos cause it looks really really really really really stupid like that...

Nice car other than that.

Do you mean the camber of the wheel looks stupid ?

I've noticed on this and other threads a lot of disagreement about what looks stupid and what looks cool. That variation of reaction is good, but negative and patronising response makes the forum less fun.

Surely the essence of Snail is a compromise between originality (completely stable) and the style of mods (completely unstable) ?

Advocates of any mod, surely realise that tastes and fashion come and go as society moves along. youth will always seek alternate style, the wisdom of experience will usually seek a measure of practicality.

While Snail is a forum for all ages, all experiences, all climates, all cultures, it will naturally encompass a wide variety of tastes. Variety in taste is why we each seek our own expression within the Snail framework.
There will naturally be variation in the reaction of others.
A positive suggestion about possible improvements to consider would make the tone of this forum much more pleasant.

Who's patronizing now ??? Laughing Laughing Laughing

All I'm saying is that because of the lowered chassis on non modified front arms, it makes the car look like a broken toy when the wheels are turned. In any case if Groovy wants smooth steering he will probably modify the angle of the wheels. A correctly set up front axle isn't a fashion, I'd say it's a necessity Wink

again, other than that, it is very nice.

personally, when you turn the wheel inwards it looks great, I like that tipical 2cv look, huge camber. When the wheel is turned outwards it looks flimsy ? I mean what Jozef is saying, like a toy car.
