What I would like to get out of this thread is some good ideas for improving this website.
Let me start by suggesting the addition of a "car quiz" page. Something with car questions that a car enthusiast like most of us should know. I'd say 15 multiple choice questions with 4 choices. It should be changed weekly with each week having a good mixture of questions between european, american, asian and other cars. Some technical and racing questions too.
What would also be great is that each user should have his average quiz score indicated below his name (like the no. of posts) , this will let us know what kind of person we are talking to as well as start a highly interesting competition between the users.
If this idea does get implemented, I would gladly agree to being part of it , maybe by placing the questions !!! :D

Good morning,
We'll be keeping a close eye on this thread, new ideas are always welcome. However I can not promiss any of them being implemented right away. The summer seasons is the busiest time for us with the many events around Europe that need visiting.
Thanks for your input,
the administration

A quiz is a cool idea. As far as competition goes, I don't think that it will work. People will just google the questions so as to look smarter then they actually are.

No sign of the Ti yet. If it's of help it has the same engine and power of the 220 Turbo which you have on here.

I think that with the number of users on this site, there MUST be more choices for avatar pics. The current collection of 10 is very limited.
In the meantime, does anyone know where can i get an avatar other than those on the site ??

You can make you're own avatar, just seach for a 90 x 90 pixels pic, is not difficult and you can choose every car, logo, driver you want. :)

i find that the rating standards on these forums to be very low.
i know no one understood what i just said, so here is what i mean.
junior member less than 100 posts
member 100-300 posts
senior member more than 300 posts
anyways, i think i qualify for a "custom status". how can i get one ?

i like the idea of a car quiz. the idea of posting the score would make for interesting situations but i think people should have the option of not posting their's, if they are car amatures.......not me of course:D

i think thats a great idea. but were u askin some1 to make it 4 u, were u gonna make it, or does it already exist and you were just tellin us about how cool it is. By the way i think mixing American, European, and Asian cars together, if u ment what i thought u ment, than whoever is gonna make it please make different sections 4 all of em and many difficulties 4 each of them.

How about a "Back to Top" button at the bottom of the page ....would make it easier than scrolling back to the top....then again, maybe I'm just lazy :D

I had no idea that people in these forums were worried about their status, I thought it was to exchange opinions, do you actually think that the value of an opinion depends on the status in this forum???

I still think this would be a good idea, though I don't know anything about website design or HTML or whatever to know if it is possible with your present layout.

I think that if there's any way possible, maybe just on a certain day, it would be awesome if there could be some form of chat applet.
That way, all the users who were online at the time could talk directly. It would be so sweet! ;)
Do you guys know any means of implementing something like this? I've seen a few free onlinse site chat programs, but I don't know how to make them work with the HTML, etc.

We will be updating the forums shortly, the new features include a back to top button.

whats your suggestion for someone with the number of posts that i have
it would be cool it if there was something that let you see photos of the day from the past few days
That is my suggestion too... I am not in the web every day (especially the weekends) so I loose some POTDs... It's a great idea to keep an archive with the past 5-10 POTDs in order to have access to them days after...Just a link below the POTD : "Past POTDs"
Like the supercars.net archive without paying for the old photos...
I think it is not so costly for you and your server's hard disk... Ii is just 1 MB of space...

hey guys , great work on the new layout !! i think its really good.
but we need some explanation on what the hell is that "reputation" thing ??
what is it ? what does it do? what does it mean? why is it important? how to improve it? . . . everything about it pretty much.
i am really happy that u guys used my suggestion of adopting a more strict status system. how does it work now? i got moved down from senior member to member.
anyways, i think i qualify for a custom status !!!
