Sorry for the delay. I got a bit distracted by Gran Turismo 4





I had to shrink the pictures down like 1% and the file size dropped a BUNCH, but the quality is pretty much the same. They pretty much took up what little hosting space that I have left, so if anybody else can host them, then let me know. Otherwise, I may have to pull the pictures in the future.
