Want some Porsche Wallpapers & Screensavers

I’ve always enjoyed cars, trucks - vehicles of any kind really. I appreciate the workmanship and style especially of some of the fine cars.

Perhaps you enjoy nice cars as well? I know some people are quite the enthusiasts - purchasing car magazines regularly, going to car shows, collecting models and when possible, if they have the income even collecting a variety of cars.

Well I can’t afford to purchase a high end vehicle but I can dream.

If you dream of nice cars like I do you might be interested in visiting Vcars. Vcars is a company that specializes in helping clients find Used Cars. They have a network of over 50 manufacturer specific websites such as Audi, Honda, Ford, Vauxhall, and Volkswagen and they can help you find a used car in your area.

My favorite part of their site is downloads area. You can download screensavers and wallpapers for all of the major vehicle manufactures.

Since one of my favorite cars is the Porsche I gravitated towards that area to see what kind of Porsche Wallpapers they had.

I found four different Porche Wallpapers. You can download the Porsche Gemballa GTR 650 Avalanche Wallpaper, Porsche Cayenne Wallpaper, Porsche 911 Turbo Wallpaper and the Porsche Boxster Wallpaper. All of the wallpapers are of a steely blue design as if you were looking at the car at night time under street lights.

My favorite model out of that selection is the Porsche 911 Turbo. You can download the 911 or any of the wallpapers in a size that suits your computer monitor settings from 1280×1024, 1024×768 to 800×600. Just select the size you’d like and you’ll be taken to a new page with the correct wallpaper size where you can right click over the image and download it to your desktop or save as wallpaper right then and there.

I also like the fact that if you wanted to send one of the wallpapers or a screensaver to a friend you can simply fill out a form beside your download selection and send it to whomever you’d like.

The image that I included above is the Porche Screensaver. It’s a dynamic screensaver with a calendar and clock built right into it. I think it’s great. You can download the screensaver in a version for a PC, osX or Linux.

If you want a new screensaver or wallpaper for your computer check out the site. It’s free after all.

Conference tables to enhance employee collaboration

If you are in need of conference tables for your office or business then you should take a look at the Conference Tables at Unique Concepts.

Each design can be customized with electrical outlets, grommets and channels for cords and wires in such a way as to make these often ugly accessories almost invisible. There’s a huge variety of conference table designs to choose from. If you visit the Unique concept site just click on the gallery photos of the designs that interest you and you’ll be taken to another page with a full description of the table and a large photo of it as well.

The table designs are made with many different materials. Some of the conference tables are sold wood, while others are metal, or glass. Some have veneer or laminates while others are stone. It’s your choice. Whichever style suits your business and or your budget.

I took a closer look at one of the table designs. It’s a solid Cherry wood table with Carajas Granite inlaid on either side of the surface with two Motorized Power/Data Modules set in the center of the table. It’s a fantastic design - both modern and sleek as well as tasteful and luxurious all at once.

I worked for two large computer related companies in the past - one would never have had tables like this. They didn’t care about their image or their employees and in fact never really had sit down meetings for the employees to collaborate on ideas either. The other most definitely would have had tables like these, and it did in fact have similar styles. That company is still around today and it’s doing well. I’m not saying that a conference table makes the business … but the ideas and thoughts that are shared while sitting at a conference table certainly can make a business.

Conference tables are great places for your employees to go over ideas, business plans or models, and they great to have and use when you are meeting with other companies or clients. Take a good look at the designs at Unique Concepts, the sponsor of this post, and see if you think that one of these tables might enhance your business by inspiring your team of employees to collaborate on ideas in new and better ways.

Voice123 to launch new version soon

If you are looking for Voice over talent for your small business ads, or commercials or if you are a person seeking work in the Voice over industry you might be interested in the latest version of Voice123.com that will be launched in the near future.

I love the trailer that they created to introduce the new version which you can find at http://v2.voice123.com.

After reading some of the release information it looks like it will be easier than ever to connect with people wanting to do voice overs , and get work in the industry. The plan is to use a system called Smart Cast which is designed to help voice-seekers find the best talent for their project on time and on budget. It seems fairly simple and straight forward. A voice seeker posts a project, and Voice123 Smart Cast searches for the best talents out of thousands and invites them to audition, then the voice seeker gets a few dozen auditions or quotes and hires a talent directly.

Keep an eye on Voice123.com for more information regarding the launch of SmartCast.

Colorful Personality

What do you guys think? Is it too much? LOL

I’m trying to figure out if this is some type of make up, body paint or if it’s an elaborate tattoo.

What do you think? Whatever it is I’m sure it took a long time to design and complete. There’s no way that I’d ever be caught walking around looking like that unless it was Halloween, a costume party or a really great joke that I was playing on a friend.

Would you ever cover your face and body with tattoos or body paint like this guy did? What would make you do that?
