Well I played around with the program supplied, and wasn't all that pleased with it: not enough parameters to hook it up like I would want it. So, I made my own templates, via my PaintShopPro, copy, pasted and what not and this is what I cooked up.

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

Thanks gang. Far better than what Filckr offered IMHO. I've always thought that would be a great name for a New Beetle magazine; this thread reignigted the idea.

I wouldn't mind making more Beetle Nation magazine covers. PM me some photos or where on your photo I can find the pic you'ld like, along with some subjects, and I'll cook up some covers for ya.

That is too cool/funny.

Kinda sad that VW Trends or Hot VW's didn't come up with a magazine for us. At least a quarterly mag.

Well, being that you're the first request, I guess your Daisy will be the featured Beetle on the next edition.

Thumbs up

Awesome cover--and this is coming from a true magazine junkie. How much for a charter subscription?

Al, I think you've missed your true vocation.
