I just wanted to give a big thumbs up!

I Just wanted to say Im glad to see Hawks in the banner now. Ive done my share of gripeing and complaining about the banner and the google ads. I appriciate the work that the new owners have done to take our suggestion into consideration. My only complaint left is the lack of a firebird in the banner. Maybe find a nice pic of a camaro and a firebird together and scratch the current camaro. But like I said, Im glad to see hawks up there now. Thanks guys.

Jeremy

I really like it now actually, and the lack of google ads, replaced by hawks is much appreciated

The front page actually looks really good, to the webmaster

The lack of Google ads is DEFFINENTLY a huge improvement. But on the main page, can we get a link to the Classifieds again please?

Yep much better

might be dumb but id get large banners for all the companies with a small banner in rotation in the top header. Then stick them little banners at the bottom.


top banner rotation placement would be the bread winner with cheap rates on a tiny banner at the bottom. Then ya could have as many as ya want at the bottom. But to keep things load balanced id ditch the ani gif banners. n no flash. Its things get to load hungry they will just turn images off.

Hawk's could be a larger sponsor than the others meaning they would get the top spot. Just a thought. Things are looking up! Thanks again guys.

Yes, the google ads was crap, good riddance! I have always thought sites like Hotrod.com looked really cheap and amaturish with those google ads shouting out about the crap $39 turbonator hoax.

Who do they think we are? All stupid assh0les that don't know any better? Heck, this is an automotive forum, people WILL find out it's crap, the few who don't already know!

Much, MUCH better with the banner as it is now. Good work!

Now, just get some of all the creativity from the board members to fill the front page with articles, videos and stuff thirdgen related, and we will have a much better site than ever!
