All garage data from PHPbb2 lost though I presume?
... all landings are in fact controlled crashes, and any crash you can walk away from is a good landing. The definition of a good pilot is a man with the same number of landings as take-offs.

Actually I should too really, gotta go get dad some drugs in the morning, cook his dinner, make coffee, go look at flat with Kate, and apparently my presence is required in work at some stage due to contractural obligations...

Erm, old garage data isn't lost exactly (i have backups) but it isn't compatible with the new version of PHPBBGarage, regardless of what the software creator says. In fact the Garage creator stopped working on the project a good few months back and is part of the delay in rolling it out.

I figured you might enjoy doing it all over again.

Doc, point taken!
Freaks, will see what i can do about the models/makes issue, you should be able to 'ask' for new models, not sure whats wrong there.

Marty, top of this page, under the logo, is the word 'Garage' click it and it should take you to the garage so you can create your own entry.

I'd like to have a 'real' and 'dream' garage, ie those you have and those you would have givven the option!

:x Wrong................. Also when I try to add mods I made, the necessary drop down boxes don't work and I keep getting the syntax error message.

Also........ I have gone into Pixum, where my images are stored and opened the selected one in another tab. When I right click I only get copy paste etc properties don't appear.
I also tried highlighting the url into the box in the garage but when I click image, instead of it appearing I get a message saying it can't find it, check that it exists.


Very strange........<stomps off muttering>

I keep getting that too for my Skydrive pics but i think it's because i'm using the wrong type of link...

If your image hoster is anything like Photobucket there will be a link called something like 'direct link', i.e. if you paste the link into a web browser the photo and nothing else will appear on the page. It's NOT the same link as we use in the forum itself!

For picture links in the garage they need to be pure links ie start HTTP:\\ and end with something like .JPG or .GIF or .BMP

On the MODS issue, same as the issue with MAKES and MODELS, there is soemthing not quite right, but i'm not sorting it out now, im not in a fit state to drive a keyboard!

Hoofuckingray

I've sorted it Vanny. Your receiving link in the Garage already has http:// in place. When I sent the image url and pasted it ended up with 2 http's in place and obviously the system said [wtf]

As soon as I deleted one, the image appeared. :D [chin] somewhat easier than before methinks
