Ride Pages: Upgrade in Progress!
By John
Editor
Hey everybody! As you can see, we’ve made some tweaks to the Ride Pages, and from the tone of the mail coming in, it’s clear you’re as stoked as we are! Personally, I dig having the avatars at the top of the page, and I love the way they look in the relocated guestbook. One suggestion I have? If you’ve still got your Ride Page set so the side bar and the background are white, you might want to go in and jazz it up. See how the lack of color on Muffler Hut’s page makes it look like everything is just kind of floating? Well, contrast that with how dope Rob’s looks, and you’ll see what I mean. Just select the "Colors and Background" tab after you log in and start playing around. You’ll be Technicolored out in no time! Stay tuned because we’ll be rolling out some other killer tweaks later in the week. As you can see, IT is hard at work!

Like the old one better cause I can’t get the rating to come up or the guestbook on my computer anymore. I have dial up so is that the problem? the old one looked a lot simpler too, now its all over the place, the avatar is cool though. Keep up the good work though.

I just wish that we could have an option of having our pages like they are now or the old way. I like the old way better. I believe in the principle of if it aint broke, don’t fix it. Just think the pages look scattered now, it looked cleaner the way it was setup before.

Have to agree with corey & jas,the guest book isnt very appeling anymore,and with everything out of order it looks kinda weird,but I guess it takes a lot of work,keep it up.

I agree with Jas… I liked how the guestbook used to present itself… now it uses a lot of room… I just want a hint that there’s a reason to look in the guestbook, not dedicate a whole screen to previewing it. Still, I admire the rest of the work and effort you’re investing… thanks.

Ya think you have enough spare switches on that shelf? I hope you have a better ambient cooling system other than that fan for your servers. You already got my e-mail about the page upgrades.

I love the change. Now… make a tab for me when I am adding new pictures so I can go DIRECTLY to the last picture uploaded. I have like 700 pictures uploaded and I have to click thru 20 at a time to get to the new uploads at the end of the thumbnails
. I wonder who has the most pictures up on Cardomain, I have 594 on my Bravada page.

Uploading multiple pics at one time would be nice, though perhaps a tad slow. I think that’s what Patrick was talking about anyway.
I love the new look, getting rid of all the borders around the pictures makes things a lot more clean looking.

The only thing for me is that theres an ad at the top of the page and it takes up a big space so I have to scroll down a little just to start seeing somebody’s car page.

Batch mode for pictures?
I know many people don’t have 1100 pics, but I like using the site for blogging every detail (it DOES come in very useful!)

I give CD’s Technical Staff a lot of credit. This site has been tweaked nicely a couple times since I joined, at least one war has been waged against scum-of-the-earth page hijackers and I’m sure hardware and software has had to be replaced or upgraded.

I was a Sys Admin for 6 years, and I’m glad that’s not part of my workload anymore. For me there was more headache than reward.

I’m looking forward to realizing all the changes first-hand.

The new ride pages look great. I really like seeing the avatars at the top of the page and next to the entries in the guest book. I’m sure any other updates you guys have planned will be awesome!
