    I was at a function with one, a V package, and was surprised it was as dark as it was. I expected a blue-gray due to the color code, but it's really dark! Darker, I think, than magnetic gray - less sparkle to the paint.

    I have some pics I snapped with my cel phone, so if you need a link to view, let me know. Send me an email....will send link. I shot 4, circled the car.

    The link shows broken. This is a guess - but possibly your account is set to 'private' instead of 'public' - so you might be the only one able to view the pics.

    I can't see the pics in that link either. It says the page cannot be found and asks you to go to the main pictures.sprintpcs.com webpage.

    The easiest way is to upload them via "Manage Attachments". Once they've been uploaded, close the pop-up window. Scroll down and find the listed attachments. Open each of them in a separate tab/window and then copy the address in the address bar. Go back to the window where you're creating the post and click "Add Image". It'll ask for a web address. Copy that address in (it should be a priuschat address). Then click ok. Your pic should show up in the preview box. (You can also see Preview Post to double check to make sure it shows up).

    If you ever want a picture hosting service with no junkmail or registration try tinypic.com , it's awesome you just upload the file and it spits out the links, takes 30 seconds flat. You don't have to give them your e-mail address or anything.

    Re: Photo of gray and black cars

    Did you try the method I suggested? It requires no uploading to photo album (on site or on an external site). It goes straight to the post only.

    thanks for the pics. The tail-light lens seems a little overwhelming

    Hopefully this makes things a bit easier by viewing the attached screen shots.

    To start adding images, in the Reply window, select the Paper Clip icon or scroll down and select the Manage Manage Attachments icon. They both open a new window that enables you to upload up to three images.

    This is a very useful feature.

    Gotta admit - I'm not a fan of the '10 Prius backend. I like the Gen 2 better - rounder and the fin is body color. Yes the back lights on the '10 seem overpowering IMO esp on a darker color car.

    But - every other angle of the '10, incl interior, is much improved.
