Well yes, we'll be doing one. But just to clarify, the image is there for you all to use as you want. So Neil, if a teeshirt dings your bell, then please feel free to print it onto some transfers and get your ironing board out.

Posters, cards, cuddly toys, board games, tattoos, branded condoms; you name it, you do it!

that equates to less than A4 size at 300ppi

It does??  ???

If you click on Mark's link and then when you open it (in Explorer at least) you get the + and - icon on the cursor? Well hit the + and the poster comes out approximately A3 size at a pretty high resolution.  Or at least it should.

Why thank you Pierre.! 8)

I don't know my dpi from my ppi, but all I can say is I've printed it out and the resolution is more than sufficient to my mind.

I've got the original as a jpeg if that helps, there's no need to convert it. I think Mark must have changed it to a bitmap file. So if anyone wants it as a jpeg, PM me an email address.

We thought we might do Hong Kong at Xmas this year. Or maybe Shanghai? Or maybe go skiing in Italy? I don't know yet. Bloody christmas...  >:( :(

Kev, there's been a whole annual series / tradition of modifying the Le Mans poster to include Andy's venerable Commer.  This new one is number 2008 of a Franklin Mint set.

I guessed it was a CA tradition to “amend” the Official poster but did know it was Mr Zarse’s chariot! I shall print one and display it with pride at work! ( BTW 33 days till I set off to Lemans! )

Errr, no, it is a jpg file. ???

And I've already emailed the original to Peter as he was having problems saving it off the thread in Firefox
