Did it throw it into DVD format? If so, I have a program that can convert it into on-computer files... just let me know if you'd like me to work some magic on it... however... it may be a few weeks... this wedding stuff is really getting intense! Crunch time! :angry whip:

What I can't believe is that a discussion thread hasn't been started for ORTBECORE :lol:

We were discussing the new name... ORTBECORE is kind of lengthy, we need something shorter.... Then we need to get shirts/stickers made for that one!

TECORE has already been widely used and is now somewhat recognized on this site and the OS... I see no reason to change it.

If you must, just reword it as Trailblazer East Coast Off Road Event...

After talking to Mario, we think it IS in DVD format. I'm gonna try to go get them from Larry, even though he's at work. Hopefully I'll be able to knock this out on my own, but if not, I'll be overnighting them to someone who can.

Not eliminating, just not specifically mentioning it. It is implied! :slap:

I agree that the name "TECORE" has become recognized. Changing it would be weird. We could tweak it a smidge... perhaps TEECORE? Trailblazer-Envoy East Coast Off Road Event?

Here is my first vid offering. I would have liked to do more with the audio but youtube mutes most music I try to put in there. There has got to be a way to put the tunes you want on there without copyright infringements. I would be cool with paying for each song like itunes if I could use the tunes I want. Sorry Dan, that's the closest I could come to country :? More vids to come over the weekend. :flex dirty:
