Default The Virtual Cool Wall

OK I'm not sure if anyone has tried this before but I've put together a virtual cool wall (script from mad4 mobile phones) and was wondering whether you thought it worth adding more cars.

There is a small selection of the standard cars that came with the script at the moment but if you guys think it's a fun thing to have I'll add more - maybe putting up all the cars on the current Top Gear cool wall.

It's an arse to add extra cars at the moment as it doesn't have an admin interface but if you guys think it's worth doing I'll write an admin interface for it.

Cool idea, since Jezza has been wrong a few times on the real cool wall, we could make a more accurate one =D

I'll think about adding one - for now I'll just put the DB9 at the bottom of the page images/smilies/smile.gif

So what cars should I add to the wall and does anyone have photos I can use?

We had it all. In the forums, some random people gave it a shot, links to other sites... I doubt this one will work, although I do appreciate your work!!!

You have control over what car goes where - everytime a car is moved from one column to another a number is added to that column for that car in the database - it uses the database to work out what car should go where.

Oh and I'm leaving the DB9 out of the system because the only place it deserves to go is on it's own.

Maybe add the Veyron to the DB9 section too.

I've put it in the system for now but if it gets a mass of votes for Sub Zero then I'll take it out and put it in the DB9 fridge - but for now the only car I'm putting there is the DB9 images/smilies/smile.gif

Ferraris are never cool. Astons are allways cool.

And I want the Suzuki Swift Sport on the wall. It's a new Mini, it looks great, drives great, goes nicely. But it's japanese, so it goes in uncool.
