Photo Gallery *A Few Colours Still Needed* Can you help?
I've started to put together a gallery of photos trying to show one decent picture of every colour of D3/D4 that's been produced as a standard colour at one time or another, as a quick reference for anyone wanting to compare or check out Disco colours.
Photo donations or suggestions would be appreciated! Ideally, a 3/4 on front and side shot, in good lighting to allow the colour to be seen. Please either reply below or PM me.
Because of the way the galleries are currently set up, I need to be able to upload a copy of the photo in to my gallery, either from another gallery here, or elsewhere on the net.
Martin is introducing a new main gallery feature, so that any photo in any gallery on the D3/D4 site, if tagged with the correct keyword, will show up in a sub-gallery for just that colour car.
If you would like your photos to show up, you need to amend the photo information so that in the Keywords section, you include a tag in the form:
Colour:VehicleColourHere
eg: Colour:ZermattSilver
There must be no spaces and spelling needs to be correct!
Your photo will then automatically show up in the relevant gallery.
Not all galleries have been created yet and there is a slight problem so that currently there is no thumbnail photo or file count showing, but I'm sure Martin will sort these issues out when he has chance and can find the problems.D4 XS MY12 Galway

Funnily enough, I've already PM'd Jasperoony asking for permission to use one of his photos. I'm a bit reluctant to just 'help myself' to anyone's personal photos.
EDIT: Just had the OK from Jasperoony...D4 XS MY12 Galway

And thank you - it's been added as Bonatti Grey to both my gallery and Martin's.
Interesting to see the contrast between this photo and the official LR one here.
Which is more accurate?D4 XS MY12 Galway
