Cool Site Idea

[CdocZ]

basically, im making a website where noobs can learn cars, and what can also be (once it really gets going) a nice little database for things. so basically, its noob training land. what i need help on is a parts list (engines, brakes, etc.) and the terms list. the actual car part is basically a "car of the day" thing, which is added onto every 2-3 days. i basically just started, so hardly anything is there.

btw, i made this mostly for a bunch of people i know who want to learn cars, but ucp is kind of advanced for them.

woah! Awsome, my name is Zach too. Let me show you a site i made years ago, that included a secondary car database. With nothing but stats, if you want to get started somewheres. I think it is:
www.sportswithgames.bravehost.com
the database is on the left hand cornor column thingy, although here is the direct link.

Let me know about my website.

If you want, i have a really good book, explaining all the principles of a cars engine,suspension, brakes and everything else.If you contact me on MSN, i can scan some of the pics for you.They are really good.It is quite an old book though... It is from the age when all cars still had carburators, but the main principles are explained really good. It has belonged to my dad.... it is a book from Shell, for personnel only...

Does anyone know a free or very cheap site that hosts sites with a big amount of server space ??? i want to make a good site for myself too...

Interesting Idea. May I suggest using bullets for the terms page, makes for much easier navigation

[CdocZ]

goood idea with the bullets. also, the book would be nice drakkie, and www.freewebs.com thats what im using, its pretty good

[Supercarfreak123]

Freewebs doesnt give you much space if my memory serves me right.

[CdocZ]

worst come to worst, ill have to create multiple websites all interconnected. like ill seperate the "car of the day"s into multiple groups, by like every 2 months for example, and just have links to that site

[CdocZ]

wow, this thread nearly died fast. since i need more ideas....thats the whole point of this post

[CdocZ]

ok....yeah, freewebs only allows 7 pages. i hope i dont run out of text space soon......

[CdocZ]

ok, the site is really starting to expand now. ive got like 5+ cars in the dictionary, quite a few terms and a few ways to upgrade cars. i need more suggestion

Your text is going off for miles in the "My say" comments for some reason, possibly the 'king huge F430 picture.

Super-scroll city (Firefox 0.9.2).

Punctuation looks a bit random - nitpicking I know, but it is attention to detail which makes the difference.

You could do a sort of brief history, picking out a standout car or two from each decade. They don't have to be supercars, they could just be something that truly broke the mould - like the Ford Model T.

i know. but its just starting. ill probably do a "historical moment" page, or something later once its really set in the dirt. as for punctuation and grammar, and that stuff........too lazy, if someone wants to help, ill be happy to let them (not only for grammar obviously)
