What do want to see on the forum?
I'm thinkin of a couple of different styles for you to choose from.

Also the spam thread shall return if people want it back.
This will be heavily monitored to start with, because of previous problems.

The other thing, a new front page.
It has been tried before, let's have another go.
With a prize ;)

Let me know what you want guys :)

car of the month, perhaps best newbies car of the month? if its just car of the month, we all know a few people will keep winning over and over again...
or....
go by build dates, eg my cars build date is october i think, so i can only enter octobers comp... perhaps make it compusory to include a pic of your compliance plate as proof...
chat would be good.
games would be great.

I like the car of the month idea.

To solve the problem of people winning over and over again. Once you win fo a particular month you cant enter again for the rest of the year.

I think maybe add a car of the year to it as well, voted from the 12 monthly winners. The person who wins car of the year maybe gets a prize or something??? They then cant enter any car of the month comps the following year so that everyone else has a chance.

while you're adding new themes, a theme with images disabled might be a good idea for those with dialup and those with wireless internet (who are getting charged per kb)

and +1 to chat room

Positioned normally at the top of the forum for members to read/see and post their emotions.

Usually 'LOL' 'ROFL' and 'OMG' are quite popular to see in shoutboxes.

when you reply in the "advanced window" you'll see them on the right hand side - click more for the full list (will open in a seperate window)

they arent available in the quick reply window unless you know the text code for them.

i know you guys are havin a bit of grief with FS section, is it possible to, instead of writing your own thread to format , when you click new thread you have to fill out a form?

so it comes out looking a bit like this...
http://www.beaututes.com/classifieds/showcat.php?cat=28

http://www.beaututes.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=636&cat=28

http://www.beaututes.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=455&cat=28&date=1159057603


as far as im aware this site doesnt use Vbulletin so may not be possible at all, just a suggestion.

Our new policies in regards to the For Sale section have been posted up.
This should address any problems previously experienced.
I will look into the style that has been used there mate.

already can mate. Same as using an IMG code except use with the bit after the equal sign from the youtube vid here

with youtube obviously spelt correctly in the second part

poita
3rd April 2009, 09:40 PM
yes you have been able to for ages

use this [ youtube ] B9q2jNjOPdk [/ youtube ]
around the final bit of the link.

eg. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9q2jNjOPdk

you only use the B9q2jNjOPdk part in between the above

which will result in this

Thanks mate, one more question, how do I do hyperlink? eg, I want to put the link of my thread into "my ride", so when people click on it will link to my thread, thanks again.

alright...type the word, "my ride"

Highlight it....
then use the button that has the world on it just under and to the right of where you choose text colour, and type in the address;)

if you can't get that to work, you should be able to copy paste this one V V V
