    Ryan has created two "special" banners and I've loaded them into the rotation, but it will be very rare if you actually see them. Ryan, be sure not to send the banner to anyone or post it, we want it to be a surprise.

    The FC banner gets about 125,000 views a day total.

    Rare Banner #1: Drawing of 250 LM by FerrariChat.com user BugattiArt will be displayed only 10 times a day.

    Rare Banner #2: Photo of jimpo1's white 328 with 3 lovely ladies will be displayed only once a day!

    Be the first one to post a screen shot with these banners and win absolutely nothing! However, in the future we may do this as a contest for prizes.

    Keep clicking!! Perhaps Jim you could offer a bounty of an Fchat tshirt (bought from Rob) for someone to find it and post it quickly.

    Aye aye Rob on the 'no emailing.' This is good, I was hoping to have a selection of 'hidden gem' banners that would be rare.

    In the future for contests I'll create a form and only that special banner will link to the form. That way users don't have to take a screen shot and I will know for sure that whoever submitted the form didn't cheat.

    I can limit the views a day to the 10 and 1, but looks like the software doesn't spread out very much. The 250 LM has already been displayed 3 times in 40 minutes. The 328 hasn't been displayed yet.

    246 Dino 57 5.090

    250 GTO 63 9.970

    250 LM 67 3

    328 GTS 69 0

    355 Challenge 49 18.961

    360 CS 55 5.358

    40 61 7.699

    The thanks should go to you for allowing us to use your art in the banner. Hopefully it can give you a little commecial exposure. We'll talk down the road about other contests.

    The 512 TR and 550 are the rarest of the common ones. :)

    I must have reloaded the home page about 100 times before I got bored. I guess I'll just have to wait for someone else to post 'em!

    Trust a moderator to find it. The damn competition's a fix :D

    For a prize, how about the finder of the 328 gets to choose their own title until the next recipient claims the prize?

    Try again! Cheater, but very funny, you did your searching for the original pic. :)

    The 328 pic still hasn't been viewed yet.

    Very clever. Maybe that is why it had been viewed so many times. :)

    Dang it Mark, would you stop messing with the contest! Good you find the little work arounds before we do the REAL contests.

    I tested and doesn't look like following the direct link to the banner is counted.

    8 showing for the 250 LM.

    0 still for the 328.

    Hey Rob delete that pic and the links so it's still a surprise...

    No, anyone could have done what Mark did, he was just the first one that clever. I already know how to keep it happening in the future.
