OK, one of the LuvRacing photographers, Tom Botos, recently visted Rockville IN, home of the old Jungle Park Speedway. Took some great pictures and wrote a little article aboutit as well. Got to www.LuvRacin.Com (http://www.LuvRacin.Com), and visit Tom's page (http://www.luvracin.com/03_writers/A_Midwest_Racing_roundup-L.htm) under Writers & Photographers. Not only did Tom take some pictures, he also wrote a little piece on the track. The trac closed for good in 1960, but you'll be surprised as to how well the covered grandstands look after 40 years.

After I saw this, I went and looked it up to see if it was still visible, and it really is.

Don't know about the others, but usually just do a print screen, paste it into ms paint, crop it and save it.

mod90fan.......one way is to download a screen saver program. The one I use is "etrusoft screen saver" (etrusoft.com) you can download and use it for free for about 30 images. There's lots of similar programs available, but they all seem to have the same format.....free initially, purchase eventually.
