Alright the new section is up and I transfered a couple threads in there. I'm looking forward to some RUCK3Y pics! I think it's a great idea for people to start a thread when they buy a Ruckus and then keep us updated everytime they make a mod or two with fresh pics.
When you do this a good idea is to modify the name of the thread everytime you post new pics so people know where to looks. For example, if my thread is called 'Dans Ride' then when I post new pics of my rims on page 3 I could change the thread name to: "Dans Ride - *New Rims - Page 3* ".

I think I'd like to redo it so that the Big Ruckii don't line up vertically...

METHINKS I HAVE OPENED PANDORRA'S BOX AND A MAD POSTING MONSTER JUMPED OUT. I haven't seen Dan so excited since his bike quit running. Chanito you now have the power to edit or delete someome's post in case any "Trolls" show up. I made Dan an admin as he is IT savvy (we hope). This should be fun, now the COS can show us his hidden hacking talents.

Without changing any other color schemes, what I've got now would look like this. G-Walla.com/Ruckus/test2.htmlOf course, I don't like the uniformity of the bikes, I don't think it's as visually appealing as it would be if the bikes weren't lined up... but there's a ruff idea...

Maybe they should be smaller, too... 'could fit a lot more, that way.

A big Haaazaaaa and a High Five to all of you for the work and improvements you've made to the site. I just got a new Mac with the new intel in it and the site gets a make over. It's almost more then an old guy can handle in one day.

Can you guys see the new background? I made a new skin with the new background and I changed all the colours around but right now it looks like crap cuz the backgrounds are all florescent blue! There are so many different colour choices that I think my day just got booked solid.

Oh, and Dan, is there a fixed command or something you can add to keep the background fixed when you scroll the page, rather than scrolling with it? I usually prefer my backgrounds that way. Ding! Your wish has been granted...You have 1 wish left! I agree that this looks pretty sweet!

Update: I added some new icons which you can see on the left. The party smiley appears when a section has been posted in since you last visited it and the sleeping angel means you already viewed the section since the last post.
I'm still having some difficulties with the colour layout and the emoticons. I think the layout looks okay on the main page but when you navigate further it gets wierd.
Please keep the constructive advice coming...I'm not gonna do anything you guys don't like.

Okay the smiley's are back plus a few new ones. Feel free to google 'emoticons' and find some that you like and I'll add them.

I like the grey/red combo a lot better than the brown/red combo.

I wish I could make the news scroller a bit easier to read. The font is just so fuzzy but i can't figure out how to change it. I think the size is automatic and the font is universal so I'd need to change all the fonts to do it.

Hey I think it's pretty cool that when you scroll over the different sections of this site on the main page they change to dark grey. I don't think we had that before.
