yeah. needs like something going on up top, like a banner or header. it looks bland. and yes, i know its less than a week old.

i think Dramaridders' car should be the first persons car to be that banner. after all, his is the most heat-catching one lately!

That is a good idea, maybe i'll make the top a rotating banner of images

I think I am just not going to post in my thread in there at all anymore. The people that matter (concerning my build) know exactly where I moved it to and the people who don't can always ask me. :)

ohh! what about a 12 month calender deal?

that would be cool. Every month we choose the best photos that are entered or nominated and at the end of the year it gets made into a calender up for sale to support the site?

I know that supraforums does that and they have some pretty legit looking calenders. :D

S2forum and Audizine does it too, with the calendars. There've been some pretty spectacular images on display.

Agreed that there should be a rotating flavour of the week/month for the header/banner. Maybe the latest/greatest product in an authorized vendors' arsenal? Or cool members' cars... either way. :)

That really is the perfect banner.

A cut-down version of this would be sweet too:

One thing I notice is if I do a quick search on bing vs google is that the *near-top result on google comes to the right place, but bing is clueless...

How does localized search input affect this vs. native tag coding?
