TCCoA Wallpapers:
Many people have asked for some good pictures of some hot Thunderbirds and Cougars to display on their monitors. You will look like such a FORD-aholic that your friends will have you committed to the local loony-bin! We will post more as they are available. All images are in the JPEG format (to reduce file size.) We are working hard to create them and we are assuming that you already know how to create a wallpaper file on your computer!

Would you like your car featured here? TCCoA is looking for high-quality images of '89-'97 Thunderbirds, Cougars and Lincolns. Here are the requirements:
- First of all, please ask before sending us a picture!
- The larger the image the better. It is better to reduce the size than expand it.
- We don't guarantee that your picture will be featured in our next wallpaper.
- The image should be large in actual monitor size and at least 300 d.p.i. Although you monitor can only display 72 d.p.i., we can always degrade the quality.
- Preferred image formats include JPG, BMP, PSD, or TIFF.

- Submitted pictures become property of TCCoA to do as we wish.
- The images we use will be at our discretion.

TCCoA Calculator:
In an effort to teach myself Visual Basic, I installed MS Visual Studio Professional and bought a couple of books on VB Programming. I needed something to cut my teeth on as it were, so I decided to create a Tire Calculator since there just weren't any good ones that I could find other than some web-based java applets. It's just kind of grown from there. Sir William.
Version History
|
0.1.0 |
This was a pretty crude version to say the least. The main purpose of it was learn how to create the various pieces and make them interactive. Then I had to make sure all my math was correct. At this point, it was all plain, simple text.
|
0.5.0 |
The first version that I released to the public. It was a plain ZIP file that people had to download and unzip to use it. It was functional and included some comparisons of tire sizes, I even threw in a nice looking TCCoA masthead for looks.
|
0.7.5 |
This time, I've added menu support (which, if you notice will show you what's in store),
future support for a full help file, and a very nice installation program. But the first
thing you'll see is the new Speedometers! These I had to pay for to use, but I figured you
were worth it. :o)
|
What's Next? |
YES, I know the Offset and Wheel Width controls don't affect anything. They will.
I'll be adding a couple of different modules to make the application (wow, it's gonna be an "Application" instead of just a "Program" WOO HOO!!) more useful and versatile.
Just stay tuned and see what happens!!!

Below you'll find links to the downloadable files. The first is the main program that will extract itself and launch the installation. The other two files are there in case you don't have those particular DLL and OCX files. They should exist already on all Win98 and most if not all Win95 machines. But, if you need them, just download and let the extractor put them where it needs to.
