What do you want to see on this forum?

Post by SSEi95 »

I am looking into updating the site once again with newer and better code versions and modifications. What kind of things would you like to see on here? Please be as specific as possible, and provide links to examples and such when available.

Thanx

Just checked, and the core board software I am using comes with RSS installed, just not enabled. This is a possibility.

EDIT: Just verified that I can setup an RSS feed. There will need to be some tweaking to get it jsut right, but it's there. :)

I'd like to see the portal/COTM/image gallery page, or whatever it ends up being optimized a little better for high-res wide screen monitors. There's a lot of blank space.

Like we said before, mobile portal, and a garage.

Can you show me some examples from other sites of features or layouts of this?

I agree with the selectable part, if there's a mod for that.

I ended up with a pair of new struts for a 2000 Bonneville. How about a Classified section for Bonneville related stuff for sale? Also, I feel guilty that I have gleened so much helpful info from this site; where could I send a small donation to help support the hosting and other expenses? Wikipedia put out a call for donations and recieved quite a good response. Thanks!

Hi Piloti,

We do have a designated buy/sell section located here = viewforum.php?f=25

There is also a donation button on the home page of the site. Donations are always appreciated, but in the spirit of the club we typically don't go out looking for them. That way we don't put any pressure on any one of alienate them if they are not able to contribute.

Tapatalk costs money, doesn't it? We don't promote spending money to utilize this site...

Doesn't stop you from making a mobile site as well. People like choices. Sure, Tapatalk costs a few dollars but allows access to many forums that support it, and I find it's setup the best for mobile use.

I would like to be able to post pics without having to go and post at photobucket then try to find the right button to have the pics here.
