Great new design on your website! I like in the 1:1 KITT gallery the switchpods as menubuttons, making also the beep sounds :)

Thanks for the compliments. The Knight Rider menu page and section will be the featured page as soon as I can get it all updated.

I had to design two of each button (lit and not lit) and then msKen worked his flash magic to get it all working the way I invisioned and also to allow those with slower connections to view it with ease.

My old site wasn't really dial up user friendly. but I was my first site and I think this one proves to be far superior. I will be updating daily as I can get pictures put online and uploaded.

Stay tuned for more because there is a lot of it. LOL

Great website! I'm in the process of redoing mine, including my Knight Industries 3000 site, and I was wondering if I could link your dash and interior concept pictures to my site? And I will acknowledge where they came from and give credit where the credit is due.

Just to let interested parties know, I uploaded my models section and posted my 1/8th scale KITT model that I did a few years ago on there. I am working on a new one now as well under current projects. Here are a few links for you all.

Thanks a million. Your pictures look better than mine do. Of course I used paintbrush for my dash and interior.

Actually Dave, that interior photo I did was in paintbrush as well. I didn't get my paintshop program reinstalled onto my new computer until after I did that. I am sure if I used the paintshop program it may have come out better.

I am still updating my site every day as well. Lots of new pictures, especially in the models section. Check back often.

WOW! I'll have to show you what I did in paintbrush when I was in college, once I get it on my site.
