Credit where due mate the forum is very user friendly and easy to follow and to post.
Don't think I'd change anything but what about adding a members picture gallery ?
Job well done.......

thanks for the +ve feedback good to hear Happy

Sounds like a good idea I thought the Kool Ride section would accomodate this but I guess a gallery stylee set-up would be a nice touch.

You got any examples of what you have in mind from other sites ?

Hmm... No examples of how to do this but if I spot anything while surfing about I'll let you know.
Something along the lines of the kool rides section "summery of who's doing what where" but with pictures added.
"Members rides and info" with a couple of pictures and description ?
I'm sure you'll think of something over time as the site grows.

Have a look at the forum

[url]http://mtbbritian.com[url]

I know its a different setup but the way they do the gallary is cool - I do love the random pics on the index page.

Don't know if its possible but its a good idea I think you'll agree.

I agreee with Covin everything else is great - its a brilliant resource.[/url]

That site [url] http://mtbbritian.com [url] That Steamo suggested does look good. The "user Gallery" is the sort of thing I was thinking about where each member can post relevent pictures etc ... Here's the link [url] http://mtbbritain.com/gallery/index.php?cat=1 [/url]

Nice one.....
