You can add extra impact to any of the sites by adding a flash animation to the home page.
Importantly, where these animations are used, a static image is also created which is automatically displayed instead of the animation when the site is being viewed on a mobile device.
Available Effects
The effects below are just general ideas of what can be done but we create these individually for each site. We can use your own car pic if you have one a suitable one or we can use a suitable generic image.
If you want to supply your own images, I have listed some tips at the bottom of the page to help you get the best results from your photos.

General advice
for taking your photos
The following are general
tips for taking photos of your car
for use on your site
• Make sure the car is as clean as you can get it.
• If possible, don't take the photo in front of houses etc. if need be, drive
somewhere more 'picturesque' and take it there.
• make sure there are no obvious shadows or reflections such
as lamp posts, houses or the photographer on the car. This can
ruin the desired effect.
• Taking the photo in brilliant sunshine can cause real problems
with very dark shadows and bright spots. Best conditions are a
bright but overcast.
• Take photos at various angles and from different heights to
give as much choice as possible.
• If your photo is to be used in a special effect where the car has to be removed from the background, it is very difficult to remove the wheels from the background because of shadows so it is especially important not to take this at Midday in bright sunlight as the shadows will be especially dark underneath the car.
Suitable Image Formats
All photos need to be sent in digital format and it is best to send the original file rather than a reduced version. This gives me the most flexibility when working with them.
Acceptable formats are '.jpg', '.tif', 'png', '.psd'. These are the most common formats but I can also accept others including '.raw' but please check before sending with alternative formats.
