Cool.  BTW - just checked out your OLV - BREATHTAKING MODEL!

I would say 200 pixels wide, required.  Min height 100, max height
200.  .jpg format.  No text over image.  The image will get a caption and a
link to the owner's site (or model of month site, which will review and
link there).

No text, that's tachy, right.

(...) Yes, good idea, Terry. I think we should go that route. Right now I'm awaiting the delivery of a rendering of a truck for the first image. We can proceed to collect images for this slot at this time. A good 10 or 15 of them would be nice. I (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
