yeah they contacted the forum here and I guess they will modify it. BTW r u in the uae ? tell us more about your X6

you're right, I used to work with them and they always made the reference back. I spoke with the editor and he said that when the article got typed, they trully forgot to add the link. It has been fixed already and I explained to Maserati when they told me.

Tycoon, I appreciate the good info about "thieves". When I started posting a fair amt of X6 pic's,I had a mod on another X6 forum suggest I watermark my pic's.I really didn't think much about it at first.Since I do this for fun and providing good info to forum members,and not for a living,watermarking just did not seem like a big deal.I had other forum members say they had seen my pic's all over the web.I did go ahead and buy a watermarking program.I guess in the very,very remote chance I do decide to someday become a "Spy Photographer" it would be important to be able to track and ID your pic's.I recently ( In the last couple of days) Googled "PalBay" and "X6" and "Spy Shots" in several different combinations just for fun.I was absolutely stunned at all the places my pic's have been posted.Maybe 75% had credited "PalBay a member of XYC forum".I suppose 75% is better than I would have guessed on the amt of credits you would see.I don't know what the answer is since this is not my main line of work!!!!???? Just thought I would add my "two cents" worth. Thanks. PalBay

I know that when I used to be at edBMW we always linked to you But I think my colleagues that kept doing that even after I left. It's always nice to give credit to someone.

Thanks.The guys at edBMW are great.I was surprised at the number of foreign language websites that posted my pic's.I guess the X6 has a lot of foreign interest! Thanks. PalBay

Some comparision shots of the storage area on the X6.When the auto journalist were through town about all you heard on the X6 storage was the BMW line about "4 golf bags".I used a medium sized athletic bag and a 120z Coke bottle,that's all I had in my car.I was able to set the athletic bag completely in the underfloor storege area w/ a little room to spare.The lid shut w/o any pushing or shoving.The hardboard cover is pretty useful over the rear storage area.It kills rear visibility,but you have very little to begin with in the X6.Also,a few shots of the roof rails for anybody considering them for their X6.Thanks.PalBay

Palbay, the Bimmer Boys haven't caught on to you yet to just embrace you with open arms and share more exclusive pics of the array of colors and combos they have hidden behind those walls?

Or they recognize you and allow you to freely snap and experiment?

Probably Palbay already works for BMW Creative marketing.

None of the above......I do wish they would send me a small referral fee......for all the X6's I've helped them move!!!!! Just kidding.....I'm just a big Bimmer fan who loves cars.I did not post a small bad clip of a VERY STRANGE looking X5 going down the Performance Center Track.This was a few wks ago.For the very first time EVER,BMW sent an X5 out from the PC Bld,to the area where I usually stand.I'm on public property,I'm not worried about trespassing.BMW was NOT HAPPY about me seeing this funny looking X5 going down the track.BMW was clearly trying to intimidate me and get me to move.I guess on most early stage vehicles,BMW views pic's like mine as free adverstising.When it's something very new( like this X5),they wish I would go away!!!! Thanks. PalBay

Update: Credit for the photos goes to Maserati from (Alpine white X6 at AbuDhabi motors)germancarzone.com . Sorry guys, we forgot to add the link the first time.
