ok, download this , install it, and then you'll be able to right click on any picture and resize it.  Resize it to 800x600 and then upload it to photobucket and then you'll be able to post pics by using the [img] tags..
[img] the url of your picture here [ /img]

Photobucket automatically resizes uploaded pics so you dont have to.

I think ANY sticker (except "I Dumped Jessica Alba") is, well, you said it, stoopid unless the company is paying you for the ad space. Right. dry.gif I see these Jeeps running around with their spare tire cover loaded with the dealer's name and phone number, and I ask myself "dubya tee eff?". As far as cars with their brand name on their w/s etc., if someone doesn't know it's a Volvo, for example, they couldn't care less about the sign, and if they know it's a Volvo, they don't need a sign to tell them.

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes.
That way, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Timing has an awful lot to do with the outcome of a raindance.

Making up that stickers is not hard at all as long as you have the font they used to write Volvo. Also what kind of rims are on the red 850 in the picture? I like them alot.

I would have thought you would have a vinyl sign makers near you that could make up any sunstrip you want. This one cost £10.00 ($17.00) off Ebay-UK


All the vinyl I had made only cost £85.00 (Approx $150). It's just your imagination that limits what you can do.

That's not bad at all. But, most people know it's a Volvo, and if they don't know, they don't care...

Now I do agree with whoever said the above ^^

Not a fan of stickers, unless you're sponsored. Then you can put small ones in the rear quarter windows. I was thinking of using the side bits (Volvo racing checkers only) of the IPD windshield sticker and putting those in the lower front corners of both rear side windows...

I wouldn't put the big VOLVO sticker, I don't mind them but think the VOLVO is writting a little to big. I like plan vinyl stickers better matching your car colour. Such as:
