What's on your wishlist for a better forum??

Post by GPXXX »

Don't know about y'all but sometimes I find it hard to look for specific threads even with the search function because at the moment we are basically cramming in anything related to the FTO into a single section (General).

Can we somehow subdivide the section into mini section like FTOOC where they have specific areas for wheels, ICE, performance etc etc?

Personally i thik there is no real problem and the mod is doing a great job (;)) in maintaining the site but at the same time I do believe we can do better as well...

What are your thoughts on this?

Yeah I was just about to ask Stephen about this.

I agree. The forum is getting large enough to have its own separate categories.

I think if you have a look at http://www.ftooc.org, you can probably go by their categories.

yeh, but i reckon FTOOC is split into too many categories already... here's my suggestion:

----------------

* General (anything related to cars, like "which is better, MIVEC or VTEC YO!!!!!" or any other mind-boggling pointless debates and discussions, hehehe...)

* Performance (engine tuning, brakes, suspension)

* Styling (wheels, bodykit, interior)

* I.C.E (anything related with in-car entertainment incl audio / visual)

* For Sale (incl cars, parts or anything that you wanna sell, buy or swap)

* Off Topic (for non-car related talk ie: chicks/hunks you can't stop dreaming about, sharing your strange habits etc etc)

* State Boards (incl NSW, VIC, WA, SA, QLD, NT, TAS)

what are your thoughts?

Is it possible to make it so that each member get's like 500kb or like room for a picture or two, under his/her profile....

That way everyone can upload a pic of their ride with relative ease... and when u click on a member, you can see the pics of their ride!

I reckon that would be way cool... :)

P.S. this is to the addition of the gallery being fixed :)
