Why is it that when people post up pics of their motor, 60% of the pic is sky or trees?!?

Any chance that we could remove the needless rhubarb around the pics, should reduce download time somewhat, and make it a little more user friendly?!?

Cheers guys / gals

mook,

assuming it's a JPG, the sky probably gets massively compressed anyway, so it will have little impact on the final size/download time.

Now all this white-space around the replies - phew what a waste

Some people seem to be more concerned about finding a cool background when they should in my opinion focus on the car.

Ay KevinWRX, what's the old git bit got to do with it. I'm an old fart but still had a few miles of airport behind my shots.
Where you take the picture makes the shot. Imagine Rum's car photographed in a counsel estate. Would not look nearly as good as it did outside the mansion.
