Monthly Photo?

Gary Lewis
Administrator
Guys - I put the picture of Big Blue at the top of the forum just as a place-holder, hoping that we would get a line-drawing of a Bullnose to use there.  However, that hasn't happened and I just saw a pic that stunned me.  So, what do y'all think about changing the picture out on a monthly basis and having a monthly contest to decide?

Here's the one I vote for as our pic for January, 2018.  And, with Jonathan's approval I'll do it.  What do y'all think?

What do you guys think about the rules including that the truck has to be a Bullnose and owned by a member on here?

Now, if we just had approval by Jonathan, ......

I pass the resolution that the truck must be owed by a site member.
Anyone second?

I like that pic, but of course I am biased! 😉 And of course you can use it! I would be honored. I like the monthly pic idea and agree it is more fun if we stick with members' trucks.

Well, I just discovered that the theme I've chosen for the website, including the forum page, doesn't give many options on the header.  I'll explore what else I can do, but we do have a new pic.  

Ok, I took out the "header" and inserted a picture.  Now we can have however big or oddly-shaped pic we want.  Hope it works for y'all.

Yes, we are due for a change.  However, I've been asleep at the wheel, so thanks for reminding me/us.  My excuse is that I absolutely LOVE that pic.

So, please y'all, send the pics in.  After we've had a few I'll put up a poll and we can choose.

Gary, would you perhaps archive the monthly pics in a locked topic in the picture gallery? And what about nominating someone else's photo from their gallery pictures?

Jonathan - Excellent idea!  I've created a new gallery in the Picture Gallery entitled Monthly Pictures.  It is pinned to the top and locked.  

As for nominating someone's picture, have at it.  We will want to get his/her approval before using it, but that shouldn't stop you from nominating it.

Kristopherdb "second chance" 85 flareside with chrome and lighted headlights is a nice pic, I think...
