I can take a picture of my Pierre signature when it gets sunnie out, raining today.

You'll freak when you see how small it it.

I'm near sighted so I see well up close and even I have to look hard to even see it!!

Hey if the Florida expert on Mercedes is name Pierre I now have name for my BENZ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Help me out, can't be that hard to learn to post a picture.

If a fly landed on Pierre's signature you would not see it.

That's how small it is.

You all may have them and not even know it.

Look close!

That's one reason I wanted to see a pic...to see exactly how small this is. Fly-sized is smaller than I was picturing, but I just went over both of our cars very carefully and can't find anything.

We're in that same rainstorm as you guys (I'm in North GA). It's unreal. It seems like we've had at least a couple of inches already today and it is showing no signs of letting up.

Toomany,

That's pretty small alright!


Definitely you have a signature on yours.

My camera has 2.1 meg up to 7.0 meg. That last pic went through easily at 2.1 meg and I could have used a highter meg resolution pic .

What do you suggest is best?

I'm on dial up. OUCH

Options:

5.0 MP 4:3
3.1 MP 4:3
2.2 MP 3:2
2.1 MP 16:9
1.2 MP 4:3 ( What I used to take the last picture)

Steve

I think that came through fine. Very interesting. I definitely don't have a signature on mine.

I think you both bear Pierre's mark!

Looks like the same sig (different color of course) to me.

Is the sig in the same color as the pinstripe?

Zeke,

The pinstriping and the Signature are different colors but not far off.

One is goldish(Pinstripes)and other yellow(Pierrre). I think yellow was chosen as it stands out better from paint color.

U know I looked at the other signature and I was sort of thinking the same Signature as you thought but I wasn't sure at all since it was worn some.

It did have a similar incline.

Maybe it's just some midget with low selfesteem doing grafetti named Pierre!

No wonder our cars are so broke down and need TLC we are here too much!

Ever think how many hours you wasted here, but it is fun, recess I call it.
