Default Great cars from 1904 to 1939

receive a lot of powerpoint slideshows from one of my friends who forwards them to me. Most of these slideshows have been created by many different people from all part of the world.

I was looking through the files on my PC a few days ago with the aim to find and delete no longer used large files.
I would have used to file attachment feature, but it would not let me upload this 6 meg file. Use the webpage link below.

Here is a couple of things I noticed viewing the slideshow in Internet Explorer 8. When my webpage opens with the slideshow, the webpage menu looks different because it includes the browse menu. One of menu items in browse is full screen. Each slide will fill the entire screen. I recommend using the full screen option for a great viewing experience and make sure you hear the wonderfull background music.

Also you need to single click on the screen to advance to the next slide.

Here is a the download weblink to the car slideshow called "when autos were art":

whenautoswereart.pps

Hope you like this slideshow.

Nice pictures Jim, That's when cars were more than transport, looks like the Pebble Beach Concours.

I love early motoring. The engineering brilliance that went into these cars is fascinating! I love the art deco styling of some of these cars as well!

Wow......what beautiful cars / pieces of art. Most of them seem to be restored to better than new condition.
Absolutely amazing.....thanks for sharing Jim

Hi
I just realised that all of the *** members online diskspace has been removed from the ***.net website. *** communications decided that they would no longer provide this service for their members.

I uploaded the "when autos are art" powerpoint slideshow to my mediafire account today.

Here is the weblink to the download:

whenautoswereart.pps

Wonderful background music in this slideshow, make sure you have your sound turned up enough to hear it.
