Car of the Month & Member Rides
« on: January 20, 2005 - 01:32:15 PM »
well, for those of you who havent noticed yet, we have a new home page!  Integrated into this homepage is a car of the month blurb, which i thought would be a nice touch for this forum.  Right now it has my Daisy girl up there as a place holder, but with feb right around the corner we should get an Ebod up there.  So starting now I will be accepting submissions for car of the month.  If you would like your car to be car of the month send me an email with your favorite picture and some info on it.  Look at the current car of the month section to see what kind of info I need.  Make it brief, we dont want stories, just a quick description.  On the picture, make sure its a good pretty shot.  Nothing like in a garage with boxes around the car up on jack stands.  Make it an outdoorsy shot that really shows the car off.  The bigger the picture is the better for me.  Ill resize it and make it work, so the more you give me the more I have to work with.

we also have a fresh member rides section.  the master list has been redone and each individual page will be redone shortly.  As there are 30 some odd cars in there now, it may take me a couple weeks to complete them all, but Im working hard to get this forum going.  It has been a very long time since Ive updated the rides section and we have a lot of new regular members since.  So if you want your car in that section, send an email.  That is the place for the story if you have one.  Tell us how you bought it, why you bought it, what you use the car for, etc.  Choose the best pictures you have, 2 or 3 body shots, an interior shot, and an engine shot.  I will only include up to 6 pics, so make em good. 

Send all requests to rmolney@adelphia.net.  Everyone makes it into member rides, but I will have to choose the car of the month.  Everyone will make it there eventually as well, unless you just have a terrible picture   :grinno:

Lastly, were not quite done with all the mods to the site.  We are getting a fresh new look for inside the forum too, which will hopefully be ready in a few days.  I had to include some google ads on the front page to help regain some revenue.  This was the first time I spent some major money on this site, and its just a small way to help make some of the pain go away  :laughing:  As I understand, all you have to do is click on the links, dont have to buy anything or really even look at the site.  So hopefully from time to time people will drop a click or two and eventually Ill remove the ads all together.  Hope everyone understands and isnt too bugged about it. 

oh yeah, www.cudachallenger.com will also now work for the forum.  not sure why i didnt just use that one instead of one with a - in the name, but either way they will both get you here.
