Sugestion to the Forum.

When we post more then one pic of oless than 100 k ( they add of course more than 100K) The forum software do not open them , but they are there , and can be opened one by one.

I am finding dificultes to reduce my pics, to under 100 K.

My sugestios is : if there is a total limit 5 or 6 pic of less then 100k why dont increase the individual limit to 150K ( it will be a very nice facilitie) in the condition that the pic will not be open directly , respecting the total limit.

Cheers.

RE: Sugestion to the Forum.

I would like to see a well organized sticky post which is a table of contents (or links) to a library of specific technical information threads. For example in the sticky TOC thread could be a link to the thread where I post all of the information, experiences and part numbers on my G500 brake ordeal. And another to the water leak adventure, and another to the HID headlamp odyssey, the transponder-key workaround, or the CAN-bus control interface, or pictures of cool G's like Paul's Charlene (RIP), or Dutch's really nice interior on his Nieman-Marcus G500 etc.

RE: Sugestion to the Forum.

I seem to remember that if an image was too big, the forum software would resize the image automatically. I really liked this feature. can it be added here?

While that's a good idea, what happens is that you end up with a whole page long list of stickies that you have to wade through to get to any new posts. Check out the Mog forum on BW to see what I mean. We were getting complaints on the old BW if more than 2-3 stickies headed up the message list.

Speaking of G500 brakes, you never did post where to obtain the Rotex Brake Pads.

I was thinking of just one sticky post that contained an moderator editable list that referenced the actual reference threads. The actual threads wouldn't have to be stickied. And at this point, I can't help but wonder if "stickied" is actually a real word.

Do you think that would work? Maybe I'm not thinking about it right. At night I sneek around and mod another board, and on it we do this. Doesn't mean it will work here of course.

Oh yeah. I'll do that. Sorry, I've had little time for G stuff lately, I'll have to get back on track.
