Out with the old - in with the new!

[armytruck63]

I like the invitation for "out of the box thinking" here.

It would be great if we could somehow make a more "newb friendly" search function. This would not only help the newbs, but also us Baby Boomers (and older) who didn't get computer experience as kids.

I had talked to Chris already and volunteered to help with the classifieds any way I can. Its a pet peeve of mine to see some things in there that should not be.

 

[colbanister]

Thanks for letting us know.........and good luck.............will help where I can ok

 

[davidkroberts]

How about a list of carriers and shippers who will work with military vehicles that MEMBERS have used before. Seems like we are always having someone need transportation somewhere could be a good sticky

Thanks

Idea!

I had a suggestion for the Classified Ads section. I am a new member to this sight and trying to find parts in the section "Classified Ads" near my home town is very frustrating.
If you find an add you like you have to click on it and then look over to see where that member/Ad is located.
It would be much simpler to add a search by closet to you home location function to you Classified Ads section... A.K.A Kinda like eBay?
Example: Closet first, highest price first, lowest price first, ect...
I like the sight very much but finding parts in this section is hard to do. It would also be nice if in the Ads Description it would tell the location of the part ect also.

[elkhunter]

Thanks Mike! Whatever one can do to make this site better for all and more user friendly is a very large undertaking. I hope other members of this site will have patience and an understanding that these improvements will help all of us and our hobby. I for one enjoy the site and anything to make it better for all to enjoy is fine with me. Good luck!! elkhunter

I can offer a specific kind of help. Although I have built websites in a previous life and have experience with a couple CMS packages I would prefer to evaluate your security. It's part of what I do in real life. If you would like for me to help you can PM me. I am currently being certified by SANS for web application security testing.

Most of the other suggestions seem reasonable although I don't know if I'd listen to Gimpy. I am glad I got the manuals downloaded to my iPad though.

Well YAll Im a newbie by all accounts ill admit to it but we all have our strengths what we are good at Any Help need from me PLEASE FELL FREE TO ASK as i will help in anyway i can this Site has been detrimental to me owning a MV CUCV 1008 been very informative

Ps We should get a Sticker made up for The forum i know i would gladly have it in my back window of the CUCV

 

[porkysplace]

Knowing times are tight for everyone right now especially with christmas here , I'm sure even a small donation to the site would be greatly appreciated to offset the costs involved in the upgades . I don't think you will find a better group of people willing to share their time and knowledge of MV's to help another member

MIKE ,CHRIS, I have only been on the site for a short time,but am a total addict!!!! and as a matter of fact the reason I finally broke down and bought a computer at all ,was this site. I have been
fooling round with MV's for many years and this site brings it all together for me. Good people,
good discussions,parts. I am VERY limited in computer graces!!! but will help in whatever capacity
would be most beneficial. My only suggestion is the format and colors used in this forum to me depict a Military theme well and I would be opposed to a change in that area as I think it is part
of what gives this site a unique personality. I have been on other sites and it seems so .........
"HO-HUM" (read boring) Where as this site projects its personality as "BEING IN MOTION" best way I can explain it. Please let me know what I am needed to do and I will do my best to fulfill the request. And thanks for the GREAT site!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
