Welcome to the forum Hans, I had my Avan Aliner (2B floor plan) for 7 years and we did the around the paddock and part ways around the paddock again over those years with the Avan and it was heaps of fun, we also belonged to the WA Branch of the Australian AVan Club and went to a SA Avan Club rally and also a National Rally at Nuriootpa, met lots of wonderful people along the way.
The Club would be the cheapest in Australia and is still run by it's Victorian founders today, both retired school teachers and fantastic people, see this link;
Welcome Hans,I am sure you will enjoy this forum,and your comming trips..... enjoy life is too short....all the best ASH

nomadic1, grab yourself a copy of Paint Shop Pro X4 and do a search on google for tutorials, there are a lot of them our there, so easy to do once you have done the learning curve.
You can do the same with the free version of Gimp, found here http://www.gimp.org/
