If you have any ideas for the new site design please add them in this thread.
- Link to gallery in user profiles
- Owner name on random images on front page
- Whos online located on side bar
-
or link to persons gallery from avater
-
yeah avatar click, link straight to that members gallery is a great idea.

Make it real easy to post photos from your own picture gallery/computer and that automaticly resizes them so it doesn't tell me off by saying too big, I've got lots of pic's that you would like to see, tool tech section I like that idea. In the events section an e-mail goes out to all members a week before as a reminder, thats all for now

The easiest way to display images on the forum is to upload them to your gallery first. The gallery will resize them so you can then link them here.
-
Number the pictures in the Gallery section so that you know how many there are and and how far along you are so if you have to come back to them you know what number

Yes there will be some nice art work on the new site.

We might be able to have something like this. I'm not sure about sending everyone an email whenever someone has a birthday though. Might be classed as spam.
-
Ok then, I will settle for a cash donation on my birthday ;D
-
Shane, don't forget George's idea about the side pictures to the right, I had to chosse between 2 last night and I made the wrong #!##***!!#.

Bas, right click/open in new tab

CHEERS DAVID, NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT, MUST BE GETTING OLD ;D

compulsory state or post code id and country.
-
Bas, right click/open in new tab
Yeah thats what I do. But no, I haven't forgotten.
-
compulsory state or post code id and country.
Yes this is high on the list, compulsory Location and Name.
-
Hey Shane, just a thought, but not a compulsory one, what about a place where we can put up a head shot maybe, sometimes i wonder who it is i'm talking to, what they look like. I have mixed thoughts on this one, but thought we could toss it up for discussion. If we go for it, can i suggest in mr john abbotts profile you put a LOT of headshot spaces, we know he loves to post his mug, and i think he will run out of space. lol LOL ;D ;D ;D sorry johnno. lol
george.
-
HA HA :D ;D :D Bring it on Georgey Porgy Hee Hee ;D :D ;D :D
-
hey johnno, watch it mate, or i might start to cry. haha. Hey don't forget to vote on saturday, i might take my dog along and she can fill the ballot paper out for me, for what it's worth, this is one election where they are all doing what it takes to save their buts and stuff the people. ;D ;D my opinion and not that of this station. opps site. hehe ;D ;D

+ 1 on this, very handy feature!

Hey George...You cant take your dog, but apparently if you have a donkey you can let him vote because ive heard of the occasional "Donkey Vote" :D :D :D ;D :D :D
-
compulsory state or post code id and country.
Yes this is high on the list, compulsory Location and Name.
you mean something like "hi my name is smokie and i live in adelaide and iam a bedfrodholic"
-
Hey cool, my next door neighbour has 2 donkeys. ;D ;D
george.
-
What about more smileys? ;D
-
Heres one 4 ya.
What about as some one adds pics to their gallerys they move to page 1.
That way you dont have to search all the time to see who's added pics!
-
I am on a roll.
Dont want to upset anyone, but time for a Cull?
Lot users who haven't posted, kinda makes the numbers a bit inflated.
Dont want to turn it into a snobs board just honest. :)
-
To add to what pickmeup said, why not have a new window to the left, say under recent posts, plenty of room, and if new pics are added you can click on an icon and go to the new pics. In the same box you could add the names of everyone that is logged in. Also as someone asked about in another post this morning, instead of leaving the page you are on to start a new post, in the same box as the above 2 items, have NEW TOPIC, we click on it and we go straight to where we go now to start a topic.

just a thought to yor "cull" comment pickmeup.. maybe some of our members just enjoy a read of wots goin down, or find a solution to their probs by cruisin the threads, an who knows may feel self concious of threading themselves, but seein as they hav taken the time to reg n cruise the news it would possibly be unfair to chop em out simply cos they havent thrown in their two bobs worth, a member is a member in the end and all have a right to remain silent if they so wish to.. the more the merrier i reckon mate ;) ....... u snob ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)
-
yeah i gotta say I agree with Skip on this one ....afterall its a well known fact that most Bedy owners are introverted ;D ;D ;D
-
yep iam with skip too
-
Rather than cull members if that is even what was implied get rid of the galleries that have been left vacant for too long
-
You cull those that haven posted and havent logged on for 2 years
Warren
-

I'm with Warren on that one.
Cheers Mark.
-
i agree wiv the aboves that would seem fair enough.. also hotrods comment of empty gallerys isnt unfair.... bein of a marsupial nature the only thing wot dont sit right wiv me is the use of the "CULL" word ::) ... a personal thing ;) ;D ;D ;D
-
Didnt mean to raise an arguement, just trying to gender comment,guess that worked ::)
Sorry Skip,Cull is out from now on. :o
Next time I will just say murder the bums! ha ha ha~! :D
-
LOL :D :D yes much better mate i can live wiv that ;D ;D
-
iam just checking in to make sure i dont get culled lol
-
how about a little box under the recent posts on the left with 'upcoming events' so we can keep track of how far away the next cruise or rod show is, have some sort of countdown aswell. 2days to go or 2 weeks to go or whatever.
I also like the free money thing
and more pictures of half to fully naked women. if any of the female members are offended by pictures of other women naked, they are more than welcome to post pictures of themselves ;D
maybe a member of the week/month where a member is randomly selected and their picture and gallery are visible from the first/home page to make new members more aware of the insanity of those they are now surrounded by
compulsory pictures in for sale threads, so we can have a few randomly selected for sale items with pictures on the home page
post count in the threads, so you can see whether the post is stupid because of recent membership or drunken stupidity :D
ability to bookmark threads, so it is easy to look back over threads you deem important to future work/reference
a link to your own recent posts or threads started so you can easily update things with new information
that'll do for now, but im sure theres more
-
Hey skip, you will never be culled and end up on the bbq. lol Hey you could unzip your pouch and release the green van. lol ;D ;D As for a ghost pic, we could have a full page pic of a custom van that sits in the back ground, light enough so that it does not make it hard to read and work on the site.
george.

What about wnen you get notified about a new post on a topic that you are watching, when you click on the notification that it takes you straight to thr post so thst you don't have to scrowl through every thing
Regards
Petrolhead
-
if you're going to do background images, can you make it optional? its too hard to read with most background images so i'd prefer to be able to turn it off on my screen
I liek the idea of lots of different pictures of members vans in the header, we need to find a photoshop pro from amongst us
-
BUSINESS DIRECTORY Who do you recomend?
Regards
Petrolhead
-
Now that is a good idea Clint ;)
-
Latest added pictures on the left. What do you think?
-
Looks good Shane
Warren
-
yeah thats sweet Shane.
I like the business directory idea, but maybe we need members businesses too (if the member is willing to have the details on the net) as I'd rather buy the same item form a member than some other random company whatever the item is.
-

top idea makes it ezey to see who has updated they gallery :)
-
Also, what about something that sends out an email to those that want to be notified when the site goes down, just so we know it is the site and not our pcs. I was going to post this yesterday, and forgot, well surprise me not, i go to connect this morning and the site has gone down again. I have only just got back in 60secs ago.

If the site is down the mail server will be down so unfortunately this wont work.
As for the site being down today, there has been nothing wrong on the server side. Must of been a problem with your ISP.

Hi shane, yeh not sure mate, we had another blackout early morning, so had to reboot the modem, so who knows. I was able to go on line, check mail, but when i tried to get onto buga, it was the only site i was blocked from bringing up, thats why i thought it was down, i got the bigpond message of not being able to find buga. So i kept trying till i finally got back in. Oh well, i just hope that the new fibre optics will be 100% more reliable, when they offer it to us [if] then i will completey overhaul our whole system, we also have tivo connected to our broadband. Hey shane tell me this, if you know, our modem has 4 ports out, can you get a modem with more then 4 ? i have not seen any.
george.
-
If you need more ports George just go and buy a small 8 port network switch and plug that into your modem/router. You can pick them up for bugger all. A 100mb jobbie should be more than sufficient.
-
They are dirt cheap over here for a basic diy unit, i just was'nt sure if they did more then a 4 port, just have never seen them. But now i know they exist, i will check with hervey norman next time i am down there. Thanks.
george.
-
Yeah network switches are cheap as. Just for your info I sell the following.
5 Port 10/100 Fast Ethernet Switch $23
8 Port 10/100 Ethernet Switch $29
-
I will keep you in mind shane, but for now i probably wont act untill i see what is happening with fibre optic, i suspect we should start hearing about it sometime next year, now that they have started rolling it out up north. If its like pay tv we will miss out by a street or to and have to settle for wireless or a dish. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ??? ???

Hi i would like to see more new vans in the Featured Van section...that red ones had a good go there....
-
Also, have What have you been Doing This Week on the left maybe in USER FORM area, that way if we want to update all on what we are doing, we can just click on it instead of hunting for the thread.
