Updated site

[Gary.Suk]

I finally went out and snapped a couple pics last night so I could use them around the site. I just updated the top header pic. I'll be working on the homepage soon, what should I add to it, a calender, a blog, etc?

[deadpirate]

the new picture up top looks sweet

i say do either a blog, or calender on the home page...or both

[Gary.Suk]

I can have a blog and maybe try to integrate a calendar into it. I'll dig around and see if its easy enough to do, I already have WordPress installed on the server that I can use.

Why don't you just clear out the old one and use it? Though I'm not sure what the blog would offer over the forum. What would the distinguishing features be?

Sick banner btw. Always finding those bad ass shots huh? :thumbup:

You should have smacked his ass with his own shoe.

[Flipzide]

i also liked the original layout to be honest...this reminds me too much of zilvia...

You are right, Gary has a lot of work ahead of him....But it will get better.

Colors hopefully will go back.... I like the darkness

[WoolyS14DET]

The darkness was sick !! Give Gary a chance and he will get everything up to par !!

no more avatar or pic in sig for me :(

[Gary.Suk]

you're not able to set an avatar or sig pic? the sig field uses BBcode, no html. Avatars cannot be uploaded, only linked to a host.

Anyone else have trouble? I'll double check the settings.

[WoolyS14DET]

Gary can we go back to black ??

[Gary.Suk]

Yeah I would love to. I've found two possible themes that I would like to use, they're $40/ea, so I'll hold off a little and see if I can find a few others as well.

[WoolyS14DET]

Nice !! Make it happen ~!!

[blackrms13]

[Gary.Suk]

What happened with all the smilie's ???

What's wrong with the Smilies, are they not working for you?

[WoolyS14DET]

What's wrong with the Smilies, are they not working for you?

I only see the one's below the post box .

[Gary.Suk]

that's wierd

:haha::wack::fight::thumbup:

[Jizza]

that's wierd

:haha::wack::fight::thumbup:

i don't see them either. guess I'll just have to memorize the codes

p.s. i tried to post the reply with an additional smiley and got the following message:

"You have included 5 images in your message. You are limited to using 4 images so please go back and correct the problem and then continue again.

Images include use of smilies, the BB code [img] tag and HTML <img> tags. The use of these is all subject to them being enabled by the administrator."

[Gary.Suk]

Damn, okay I'll check it out.

[WoolyS14DET]

[Jizza]

props on the quick reply adjustment...not having to click on the qr button makes a huge difference, way better! :thumbup:

[WoolyS14DET]

[Gary.Suk]

Yeah, its better this way. You can still click it in case you are trying to quote someone, but its not necessary anymore.

[Jizza]

:pika: :luigi::yoshi: :mario: :goomba::chickensnatch:
WooHoo!
:1up:

[Gary.Suk]

Finally!

[Jizza]

SWEET!!!! The black theme needed to come back! :thumbup:

[Teddy]

Wow I thought I clicked on the wrong link!

[THE_kafany]

I REALLY like the black theme :)
Good job Gary!

[Flipzide]

Now this is what I'm talking about!

SWEEEETTTT!

[SUPERSTAR]

I love the dark....and my :D are back.

Kick ass Gary.....:kissyface:

[Gary.Suk]

sweeeeeet

[Jizza]

Any way you can adjust the global time zone setting from GMT to PST?

[WoolyS14DET]

Effin great I LOVE IT !!!!
:wack:

[Gary.Suk]

I already have the default set to PST in the board's settings. Double check the settings/options in your User CP to adj it if it isnt correct.

BTW, I just installed an add-on for embedded videos. Now YouTube and other flash videos will automatically be embedded when the raw link is posted.

[blackrms13]

i have a suggestion, maybe try setting the font's color to a lighter grey, i think sometimes its kinda hard to read...but if not its okay

[240love^_^]

I like the darkness WAY better....

Great Job Gary!!!!!

[WoolyS14DET]

GARY !!! Shit is great !!!

[SUPERSTAR]

i have a suggestion, maybe try setting the font's color to a lighter grey, i think sometimes its kinda hard to read...but if not its okay

I agree, at home is ok, but work the lighting is really good and makes it hard to read. Or make letters white.

[WoolyS14DET]

Pssst ernie get some glasses !!!! lol

[Gary.Suk]

I was able to adj all the fonts except for the ones in post bodies, I'm not sure why

[Gary.Suk]

nevermind, I fixed it. Its a lighter shade of grey

[WoolyS14DET]

Nice it's lil better on the eyes lol !!

[SUPERSTAR]

Pssst ernie get some glasses !!!! lol

Bite me!

nevermind, I fixed it. Its a lighter shade of grey

Thanks Gary.

[WoolyS14DET]

Bite me!



Thanks Gary.

Don't know about the old one (Wooly says it's just hidden) but a new one was started...

[WoolyS14DET]

Teddy there is a new on that got started and the old one Gary decided to keep it in the mods only thread :haha:

[Teddy]

Well. It's not in the Elite Section if you haven't noticed. All I see is intros and the welcome thread.

[WoolyS14DET]

I don't think Gary put it their for a reason ??? IDK ?? We can move it if it;s ok with Gary ???

[Gary.Suk]

. : 2008/01/12 : .

Changed up the overall theme of the site, went with a lighter style for a change.

Also, added some ads around the site, lol. I wanted to keep the site ad-free, mainly because its ugly and annoying, but hopefully these random ads will help with hosting fees.

[PacificDrift_nick]

I don't know about the grey.........

I think I have to see it on my computer, iPhones not helping

[Flipzide]

well i don't really mind the ads, but GREY!?

WOAMGGHGHGHHGHGH!

[HotRod Travis]

failboat
lol ;)

[Z_Spool]

I liked the other style better. (I always ignore the ads anyways, so they don't bother me)

The other style just looked more 'finished' this looks kinda hodge-podge.

[SUPERSTAR]

I say pink and white

[DRIFT-ELITE]

ummm, its alright...atleast i dont have to squint trying to read anymore...haha stupid eyes

[karl wasabi]

It's white!!!! holly shit. I fell like I'm on a different forum. Sweet!

[WoolyS14DET]

Wow I feel lost !!

[SUPERSTAR]

I'm digging it. I feel alive.

[Z_Spool]

i say pink and white

Yes!!!

[lunatyk]

NOOO NOT PINK AND WHITE HAHA... Whoa it was a big change from black to white just shocked me. Looks good though clean and simple. Just going to take a couple days to get used to.

[SUPERSTAR]

You don't like pink?

[PacificDrift_nick]

Wow I feel lost !!

Me too

[PacificDrift_nick]

Me too

well i take it back looks good on my computer!

well done gary!

[blasting_speed]

I don't mind the ads, much like everyone else i just ignored them. The new lay out is alright i guess. It could of stayed black in my opinion. Good job anyway.. As for the hosting fees you can always sell your body.

[YoungGun]

I like this way better.

[SUPERSTAR]

pink pink pink pink pink pink pink pink
pink pink pink pink pink pink pink pink
pink pink pink pink pink pink pink pink

:kissyface::wack::a2m:

[lunatyk]

[wow-thats-a-cool-car]

How much do you get paid for the adds? And how much does it cost to host the web site? Just currious

[deadpirate]

[Gary.Suk]

How much do you get paid for the adds? And how much does it cost to host the web site? Just currious
I would rather not say, but its not much for either.

[SHMEX]

Diggin the look gary. A tad bright, but a good mix of colors and what not. I enjoyed the black, but enjoy anything on this site...keep up the good it work dude. Sites awesome , and what makes it more awesome is you doing it by yourself. Thanx for the site!

[wow-thats-a-cool-car]

I would rather not say, but its not much for either.

[Gary.Suk]
