What about "Carnagolica" for T1 at BL on Demo servers? 
Never said the chicks have to be hot :bump:I just wanted to avoid the gender-based discrimination
Aside from Becky, are there other women perusing the LFS?
Good points, Electrik Kar! Indeed, it would be a shame to lose the photographic sky, as I like it very much, as well as any effect this would have on the so nicely done track textures (a separate thanks to you for that).
Regarding the Sun appearance/reappearance...when I used to play GTR2, depending on the time you set, the sun would, in fact, come out from behind the clouds at certain spots on the track and be in your eyes (making the driving harder). Also, after you lay rubber lap by lap, the location of the sun (angle, etc.) would also change, making you realize how much time you've just wasted (in this sense, this isn't such a great idea, perhaps
).
Anyways, I'm not saying the Devs should make LFS' weather akin to that of GTR2, as I like LFS the way it is - a lot less graphics card intensive, even compared to netKar Pro...which, IMVHO, has sh!tty graphics in itself. Just some points to mull over in the spare time (if they have any).

Another changing weather blab
There's a non-zero chance that something like this has been suggested already, but I couldn't find a thread like that, so fwiw, here goes...
So there are three "preset" weathers (in Blackwood, at least, dunno of other tracks) - clear day, cloudy afternoon, and cloudy sunset. All three have a predefined sky texture to them (and maybe to grass, bridges, etc. I'm not sure). What has just occurred to me is that perhaps you could fade in a new sky texture while the old one fades out, and then you'll have changeable weather patterns, at random if you will, and hopefully without terribly involved coding.
Anyhoo, this is just to get it out there. If this has been already suggested, then don't flame me hard and remove this thread if you want.

Don't you think we need a chick as well? 
I'd say Paul Oakenfold - Ready Steady Go would be more appropriate for that.
Also, Fedde Le Grand - Put Your Hands Up for Detroit (for those who want a V8 American musclecar in the game)
Your brother isn't playing LFS, so he's bugging you instead and spoiling your race.
I wish the damn F1 race would begin sooner so I can get more sleep after it!

You get your electricity back, you run LFS, it gets too hot, you turn on your good air conditioner...you know the rest 
I wish I could get more sleep before the F1 race...

You have a better air conditioner, it runs all the time, and now there's no electricity to power your PC with LFS
I wish I could shave a second off my PB...

Well, I didn't intend this as an umbrella type statement and I know that there is more than a fair number of very open-minded and mature users around here. Sadly though, there's also quite a few of the opposite type. And if I've offended anyone with that, my apologies
P.S. doesn't this forum have a beer smiley? Or is it 'cuz too many people are under the legal drinking age?
Yea, basically like that!
LFS "Official" Calendar/Wallpaper?
Ok, so I know that the demo racers' opinions aren't worth much around here, but anyways...
The official Audi site used to have downloadable wallpapers with monthly calendar with new one available every month. I was thinking that since there is so much hi-quality graphic content here, why not do a similar thing for LFS. Say, select 1 or 2 best wallpaper sized images every month, put a calendar on it and make them available for download on www.lfs.net Aside from the contributors having fun, I think this could also help raise the image of LFS a little bit in the eyes of the newcomers. As an additional thought, the calendar can have highlighted dates for various big league events or such...or the scheduled release date of a new patch
Maybe this belongs to the suggestions/improvements section, but since all the visual goodies are in this sub-forum, I'm posting it here.

If everything were made of lego, the power curves would be choppy and you'd hate your driving.

You have good reputation, hot chicks don't give a damn about you.
I wish XFG won't rev as high as it does, so the numbers are more like that of a normal hatch, instead of an E60 M5

Bunnies take over the world - everyone gets f*&$ed over, including the clean racers.
Okay, I wish I had a clutch pedal and an H-gate shifter...from a proper store with lifetime warranty.
Late, I know...just waiting for F1 qualifying

I wish I had a G25... <- that should be an easy one guys
To pull a Rosberg-Trulli: attempt to pass the car ahead in the corner and end up spinning (in-sync...or is it N'Sync? ) both cars without any physical contact.
