Hey Matt;
I hope that I am one of many to sign up. This is something we have needed for a long time. Thank you for starting it and long may it run.

Great work....and fast!
This has been talked about for a coupla years and no ones done it.
You mention it once and get right on it.

Let us know when we can add/modify the regestry information.

Question, our photos, how do we get them on your site and once we do can they be exchanged for different ones. My car will be going thru changes, gota keep up the latest shots ya know.

Lets all try to make this a "long lived" web site.

well, it's working now, but you can only ad one line in the info field. we now also have color, engine, year & model. can't edit an entry but you can re-enter and i'll just delete the any duplicates as i find'em. feel free to post ideas for other fields.

for now, you can use an image host like http://www.glowfoto.com/ and upload your photo their site, copy the provided image location or BBCode, and post it anywhere in the forum.

this is a test of the glowfoto image hosting. if you click it, you will be directed to their site for the full size photo (it's big). this is a scan from an old ad. i took out the driver and cut off most the trim & logos for fun in 1995.

OH! you can also upload a photo here for your profile icon! just click profile at the top of any page in the forum.

Well, lets see if the avitar insertion worked!

Looks like it did, but what a bad shot. I'll get a better one next week, it's on jack stands right now.

Registry

Postby Half Fast One » 2004 Dec 18 Sat 7:09 pm

Hi;
This is going to be great. Can not believe how fast you got this going.
So before I forget, I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. That should just about cover everyone I hope.
:D Roger
PS:
Aussiehawk needs some help on the other site. He can't figure out how to post a picture. Can somebody here help him ?
