I never noticed the text at the bottom before, but it would appear that the screencap was used as a poster sometime after the film's video release. |

Here's some more captures I found with Google Images.![]() ![]() This one is rather poor, since the lower portion is cut. ![]() So it seems the one from the movie, but with text at the bottom, is the best we have right now. |

So, which of those photos should we use? |

It would be good to make a better one from the movie, but if nobody has it we would have to use what you found... I do not know which one is the best (or less bad ![]() |

Of the three, the black and white capture seems to be the best. |

Why do all Checker entries end up as Taxicab? |
◊ 2012-08-28 10:21 |
Because they are Taxicabs. |

Not all Checkers were built as cabs. |

You can actually see at least one other similar Checker on that street, which would make sense. |

Just captured several images of the taxi.![]() ![]() ![]() I have two more, but I they can't seem to compress for upload. -- Last edit: 2012-12-12 00:01:20 |

Thanks For upload as long as it is converted to jpeg or png and that you have enabled the "auto resize" option in the upload form, it should work fine |
◊ 2012-12-12 23:22 |
I do have auto resize checked, but when I upload a photo to convert to jpeg, it comes up with the image too big message. |

By the way, check out those rates. 95¢ for the first 50 metres, and 50¢ each additional 50 metres? Talk about inflation! |

There might be a limit to 2 MB or something like that |
