    I see we have a member in Autralia. I love the Holdens, I wish I could get one here in America. The Holden UTE and the Ford Falcon along with the Holden Commadore dude just Australian cars are sweet. (The older Monaros and newer ones) nothing like the Vauxhall Monaro VXR 500 though.

    Anyways, I dont see me on there at all. How would I get my thing pin pointed???

    If you are referring to the image icon that is behind the pin info balloon, the instructions are very vague and all it says is an avatar sized pic can be linked by placing the URL of the pic in there. There must be a way to link your forum avatar to it.

    OK. go to one of your posts. Put the mouse over your avatar. right click and copy the image location. Go to the membermap and click on "Your Entry". Paste that link into the "URL of the image for the marker" block at the bottom. hit the update button and your avatar should show.

    I get that, too. I guess we are not worthy.
    Be warned, it makes a mess and a lot of smoke so have plenty of ventilation. Trust me, it works. I used to restore old British cars.

    Gary,

    FYI - I get the same error when I try to access the Members Map link. Also, I was wondering if the Parts Review feature was going to come back on-line.

    Thanks!

    Those features have been disabled pending the server move. I'll post an update on that later today.

    I am working on it now. If things go as planned, the forums will be closed for a few hours tomorrow for the move.

    No. there are too many bugs with the current version and support has been lacking.

    After all the security problems we had before, I am hesitant to open it up here.

    A major release of the forum program in Beta testing now. I'm trying to only use the add-on programs that are well supported so the upgrade will be easier.

    There are a lot of new features coming that are core to the main program!!!

    Yes, maybe. There is another version of the map program that works directly from Google and is compatible with the new forum upgrade which is finally at a release candidate level (close to a final product)

    No more upgrades will be done to the site until that new base program is released. (there are quite a few new enhancements built in)
