    Those are awesome!

    How to copy pics from emails:
    1. Right-click on the picture.
    2. A little menu should appear. Click Copy. If there's no little menu, do Edir/Copy from your menu bar. If you can't. hit the Print Screen button on your keyboard.
    3. Go to your Windows Start button, choose Programs, then Accessories, then Paint.
    4. Edit/Paste. (If you paste in the entire screen, you'll need to crop off the rest of it so only the picture is left.)
    5. File/Save As.
    You can resize the picture in Paint if you need to by doing Image/Stretch-Skew and choosing some percent like 50%.

Some of the pictures have been cropped so that you get more or less of the background.

    Cool ideas, tho.
    It tells you in the beginning they are done in photo shop cool tho!

    Thanks for the link. I opened it at work, and I don't know what made me open more links on that page. Before you know, an hour had past and I had 10 windows opened.

    That is PhotoShop, every truck has the same cab, same wheels, same bumper and tire flaps.
