...or, at least as much of it as I'm responsible for creating, which at last count was everything aside from the fantastic work of the squadron members.
I just hate what I've done with it. The presentation, the organization... everything.
Please help me to think of ways to tweak roadsquadron.com so I won't hate it anymore! No grievance, no complaint is too small. If it sucks, I want to hear about it, at great length and with all the ugly little details.
Also, in case you were inclined to say so: Mowing it down and starting over is a pefrectly reasonable suggestion, providing you've not clean out of thoughts for how to put it back together again.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
Frustratedly yours,
Me.

*raises a tiny hand and speaks softly*
... i thought it was fine how it is - i like it.
But if you are unhappy, that makes me unhappy... and an unhappy me is... well.... a 2nd unhappy person.
Like, what are you looking at over-hauling??

Oh... well, in that case... At the very least, I'd like to make it somewhat interactive, so y'all can update your own stuff, and add pictures, news, events, how-to guides... whatever to the main site. That way, the onus is no longer on me. Well, once I get the code written.  So, aside from those, any suggestions for features? |

>Hot tub??
>Cabana Boys?
I'm connecting the hot tub, and if you are interested in cabana MEN.... well, I suppose I could invite my buddies from the fire station over.......
Seriously - are you thinking of some kind of Wiki app? (even though it sounds like a guy with a turntable in a disco from the '80's..... turning the record back and forth.... "wiki-wiki-wiki"...
Note: Wiki is NOT a baby Wookie.

I'm in 2 car forums so here's 2 things that they do...
Members are able to post their car pictures freely in 'Gallery' forum, instead of having to post them up on an actual gallery. This gives the members more control, reduces less work for the administrators and allows other members to post their comments in the threads. No flaming allowed, of course.
Separate forums on how to DIY and where to get parts.

There's something like that with the Tacoma forums I used to browse... seemed to work pretty well.

Yeah, I'd love to really get in to the code and write something flexible for us.
I can do that. It's... what I do.
The only problem is bandwidth. I'm not sure I can host something like that out of my house. Fortunatly, I'm making money again...
I'd like to eventually move to phpBB and build what we need on to that. Nice piece of work to start from.

Have you looked into YahooDomains? I *accidently* purchased one the other month (don't ask - me no read so well at 3am!) But for like $12 a month you got:
Web Site Disk Space: 2 GB
Email Accounts: 25 email accounts (sweet!)
Email Storage: 2 GB storage per email account
Data transfer: 25GB
Subdomains:100
As for phpB... ya know, I have noooo clue what that means. Then again, I just woke up.

hehe, old thread...
just wanted to note to don solo - awesome pic
as for phpBB I've been working with it some on other sites and it seems simple enough - granted I've been working from the moderating end not coding end...
