I want to continue growing my skills as an amateur photographer and meeting other automotive like minded entrepreneurs and enthusiasts!

I would like to ultimately promote and make MadWhips.com the #1 photo sharing website for CAR photos in the world.

Any feedback about either of my sites CarZi.com or MadWhips.com is always greatly appreciated! CarZi.com will be getting a new facelift in the next couple months and Madwhips.com will be receiving some GUI and functionality upgrades early in 2009.

Have a great long weekend!

Great looking site and some fantastic motors on there too! Easy to navigate and great looking two things that don't normally go together on most blog based sites. Great work.
