    Cool new site, Chebby!!

    I like the orange and black. I would like to see the white Subject text on each posting be much smaller, maybe toned down. I find myself seeing those more than the posting's orange text. The subject is nice and big at the very top, but then it is repeated in every posting.

    Hey, hooray!! We can now edit our posts!!!!

    Looks great. I had no trouble re-registering so that I could be myself again. Thanks for the help and the effort.

    They are not lost. The old forum is now the backup. We needed a forum that didn't go down all the time so that why this one is here. Plus a new layout with better features.

    Are we supposed to be using this forum or the old one? I notice there's still a lot of activity over there. Are you planning to shut one of these sites off or what?

    The old forum will eventually become somewhat of a back-up and archives. At least that's what the plan is. Transitions aren't always easy and quick. I believe less and less activity will continue on the old forum until eventually all the current topics are here.

I just started driving my early again after tarping it through the winter. The cold and wind and rain up here will take years off a good van.Good to be back!

    Some of the topics put new messages that get posted at the top, I prefer the old way where a new message that is posted is added to the bottom of the thread. This thread is a good example.

    [b][i]I like it both ways. It depends on the thread. If it directions how to do something old should be on top. If it a thread like Leadfoots chop having the new daily post on top is easier.

    It was a feature that was available with the new forum and we might as well take advantage of it. However it has it's drawbacks...

    Limited storage space 10mb
    I've paid for an extra 100mb but it expires in a month
    adding more space and extra time for the space costs $$

    I'm open to suggestions for the best way to utilize the extra forum...

    I still see people signing up on the original forum. When they sign up, is it clear that there are 2 forums and the original is closed and they need to sign up again on the New Forum and see where all the action is?????

    Sign up on the old forum they may, BUT I hold the key to activate their registration over there. I get an email that a new person needs their registration activated, but instead I send them an email pointing them over here... Wink Most have come on over!

    Is there a way to turn off registration over there? Or maybe make a custom page that directs them here, or better yet, when they click the registration link over there, it just forwards them to the registration page here?

    About the two galleries, I might suggest that we use the 10mb for the most current features, but create a gallery archive topic OR create a VintAGE Vans account on PhotoBucket or something to archive pics.

    SUGGESTION Put a sticky at the top of each discussion area that is a link to the matching discussion area on the old board. Call it an archive or whatever. Just a suggestion.
