A 'show us yours' forum

Post by Gromit »

Follwing Delpel's suggestion I'm after creating a new forum to allow folk to post up pics of their steeds - I want to delete one of the current forums to create room for it. Either the humour or 'should I shouldn't I?' forum will go - both which could easily be incorporated into Boxerbanter.

All photos would have to be hosted elswhere - either as hyperlink or sensibly sized visible images.

What's it to be?? Cast your vote ivyoupliz :)

Oooh, conflicting vote :D

I reckon humour can be dropped in amongst the boxerbanter whereas the 'should I shouldn't I?' makes a good archive of reading for the newbies as they appear before asking about the quirks and character of the S.

Adam - good point.

I'm keeping out of the voting for the simple reason that I don't mind. Er...maybe IDGAS should have been the 3rd option?? :D :D

Nah...Keep the Humour and ditch the Should I Shouldn't I, the idea is to attract newbies for Gawds sake. If they read that lot they'll never buy an 'S' .....Better dump the Tech section as well then :mrgreen:

I'll get me coat :oops:

Do BM riders have humour, or just tweed jackets and pipes?

Fraggle,

Richard's ISP doesn't support uploading of files via HTTP :roll: , so no matter how small you shrink your file, it won't upload. You need to host the file on some web space somewhere and put the URL to the file in your profile.

You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

Well folks, contrary to what I'd expected it looks like the funny stuff's staying and should I shouldn't I is due for Room 101.

I'll sort out the new forum later today.
