darin,

i just got an email from your lawyer,
stating that i had 24 hours to remove yruo phtography.
i have removed all pictures that i belive orginated form yrou site.
it's a shame that the comminty can;'t work togetehrer.

alli wanted to do was create a real portal...
that send people to the right places....
tech by s-cars,
big galleries of collected works,
videos,
links to the top forums on teh web.

i have the ability to get great google response,
i can help send the less than cnnected people to the right places to
help educate them,, and show them what is avaible.

a portal does that effectively.....
there are no real audi portals other than link sites....
and i will still create it.
mark my words.

i want to be able to send you hits, and i can do that.
but you take it as iof i am attacking yoru sirte,
or you have a fear that i wil ltake peopel away.
on teh contrary, i have teh abilty to send peopel there.

its about ease of information,
not having to look.
if you arent on s-cars list and not computer savy, you end up buying a
chip from TAP and looking at s-cars or urs4.
i mean c'mon lets help people see and get what they need.

if they need advice on tuning and tech send em to s-cars.
if the want news lets have it syndicated form the big auto news sites.
galerries...
well why not have a collectin? who cares?
i'll put s-cars on teh picture.
i am not trying to hide where i got them...

if everyone helps in teh portal it can be an easy place to get a quick
overview of what is going on, and then you can click to gfo where you
want.

anyways.
i'm not getting discouraged.
i have heart
desire
and a serious staff behind me shoudl i decide to drop the site on them.
so lets work togtehr?

or tell me now...
and i will rmeove all s-cars stuff.
and i'l fid someone to fill that niche
but it woudl be a shame
because i stuill use s-cars...

well
i love audifans teh most
this si genius
and i wil def promote audi fans no matter what happnes.

i want to promo9te you guys
and you gus rthink i want to take biz away.

what a shame.
anyways
i'm going to enjoyt my weekend.
maybe update teh site a little bit
;)
