On this page you'll find some collections of replacement backdrop images ready for use with F1GP.
To use the new backdrops you'll need a registered copy of F1GP-Ed V3.30+.
In F1GP-Ed's Backdrops window, simply load the image and then choose which
backdrop in the game you want to replace. Full instructions can be found in the F1GP-Ed documentation.
More backdrop images are available separately on Alan Strang's F1GP Backdrop web page.

If you have made some backdrops of your own and you think they are as good as
(or better than) these, then please feel free to submit them for inclusion on this page - be sure you follow these guidelines:
- All images must be in IFF-ILBM format and accompanied by a suitable icon
- Images must be 320x200x5 in size (32 colours) - the palette must follow any restrictions imposed by F1GP
- Please include a readme file - this should contain, at least, your name, contact address(es) and a brief description of the images (e.g. how you made them)
- Archive everything up in a separate directory using LhA and send the archive to Oliver@POBoxes.com - you may also want to consider uploading the archive to Aminet as well
- Alternatively, if you have a web site of your own you can make your backdrops available there, and I'll add a link to your page
