Weekly Photo Highlight
- 38 Comment
This week there were too many great photos to choose from. This one was submitted by Jeremy earning him 5 extra entries into our PorschePerfect Giveway. I love the "modern" 911 Speedster and the wide body version is just plain bonus.
We added quite a few photos to the gallery this week. Check it out when you need a Porsche fix and keep the pictures coming.

Looks like it might be a "real" turbo car as well. Except for those ugly bumpers that Porsche used back in the day to satisfy our US bumper/crash laws, that car is about perfect.

LOL
whats the decision on such a situation?June 13th, 2009 at 9:16 pm -
Andrew said:
There is a loophole in this one guys. According to the official rules, it is acceptable to submit an image that is already in the public domain. As PorschePlatz pointed out, this image is listed on wikimedia (I had seen it there too), but even though the original photographer is a guy named Abehn – not Jeremy – it is acceptable to use because by posting on wikimedia, Abehn waived all rights to the pic.
"I, the copyright holder of this work, hereby release it into the public domain. This applies worldwide.
In case this is not legally possible:
I grant anyone the right to use this work for any purpose, without any conditions, unless such conditions are required by law."June 14th, 2009 at 10:24 am -
Jeremy said:
Read the rules.. There's nothing in there that says it has to be YOUR image.. just that it can't have any copywrite issues. This image is public domain.

Jeremy said:
I've been on vacations.. not avaoiding any direct questioning. I got all of this cleared with the rule guys before I sent them to him. It was all out in the open, I never attempted to decieve anyone in this process. I'm just a ruthless and smart competitor.. ask anyone.

Jeremy said:
P.S. – all pictures of me winning the giveaway porsche will be public domain. So go ahead and submit them to this site.

James said:
i believe jeremy was on vacation that's why he hasn't got back to any of us

Jeremy, is that you on the Wheel of Fortune video, or just some guy named Jeremy who's video is in the public domain?

You know really its a matter of padding our count

Jeremy said:
ruthless bookie, of course that is me the video! 35.4 K baby.

Jeremy, if you won that kinda coin, you don't need to win this car, you can buy a nice used one already

Andrew said:
Again I agree w/ ruthless here.
Cool video though Jeremy. Do they mail you a check or stuff your pockets w/ singles as you exit the stage? Always wondered how that works. Also, did you get to meet Vanna?Good work. Is 'S' your favorite consonant now?

Jeremy said:
rb – That kind of scratch doesn't change my life enough for me to purchase a Porsche.
Andrew – It's July 17th and I still haven't seen a dime from the show. It aired May 11th and they have several months before they have to send the check. I DO get the full amount though, uncle Sam won't get his hands on it until April of next year.
July 14th, 2009 at 9:59 am -
Jeremy said:
Oh, and yes, I did meet Vannah. Gave her a little side hug and had a couple minute chat with both her and Pat after the show. She's 50 and still very beautiful.
