You would think they'd have a box to click if you want to rate a car, then a page to pick how many stars you wanted.

I just went back and tried 3 cars and it still works for me.
You can rate each car as many times as you want, but it will only use your last rating (you can't rate your buddies car 10 times with 5stars)

We identified an issue with IE7 this morning rating cars. It should have been fixed.
Let me know if you encounter any issues!

can you link to the uploaded pictures ? ( like an "IMG" code ) ? Hint !
No - you can't.



haha - just kidding
(Nice Vette )
- Click on photo in garage, it will open in expanded version, right click on it, click "copy image address to clipboard", past the image url in your post surrounded by [IMG] tags.

Your just trining to be difficult now aren't you
(just kidding)
Sorry you are having the problems.
I really don't know what is up in your instance.
If you can, e-mail me the images you would like to have uploaded to your garage, and I will see if I can replicate it.

You misunderstood my post, I just checked 3 different cars rating stars by moving my mouse through the stars to see if they still changed color.

I only rated one, the 63 split-window mentioned before, and I don't know the owner either.

I'll let you answer the questions, I was just trying to help.

I have a few computers that I use at various locations to access the CF...some have different browsers...IE 7 & 8 and mozilla's firefox 3.5 didn't work on any of them.

I didn't do the hard refresh because basically I didn't see your response...but today the "rate it" works now for whatever reason with no extra key effort on my part.

Thanks for the response!

Default Picture question

I created my garage last night and uploaded three (3) pictures. They do not show up as the album cover or in the vehicle pictures when you open the garage. However, they do show up when you click the "click to see additional pictures link." What's the solution?

Here is some feedback! On the main page, when a person goes to Forums>C3 Corvettes>C3 General Discussions, you are directed to C3 Tech/Performance. How about fixing it so that it takes you to C3 General OR, change the wording to from C3 General Discussions to C3 Tech/Performance.
As a webmaster myself, it can't be that hard and it would make a world of difference to people looking at C3 issues.

Thanks for reading this

Thanks for working on it. I like the garage - not perfect yet, but it is a nice feature.

OK, I like this garage idea but have one issue. Is there anyway you can arrange the cars either by generation or alphabetical order of owners or something. Looking for a specific person or car takes forever because of all the pages of them. I tried the search form at the top but got nowhere.

I like it.

Added my C6 without a hitch. I may want to change photo in the future.

Thanks,

Default Assigned ID Number

Why not put the cars in order when they were added to the garage by their ID assigned number that is given to them when put in the garage?
That way people could look at them one by one....and remember where they left off when they come back to view more of the cars.

I like the idea...but like others am having troubles with it. I cant see the pic that I uplaoded and cant get to upload a new one at all. The only link I have is to add an album (I dont want another album...just another pic). If you get it all sorted out I will use it for sure. Not gonna change my username for it though.

I like it but am not a fan of the nickname field. Just my feedback.

Also, I'm not sure if it meets your intentions for this feature but can you add motorcycle manufacturers to the make/model database? I added my Corvette and would like to add my motorcycle as well. There are a fair few of us on the forum who enjoy motorcycles as well as our cars.

What I think we can do in a future upgrade for the feature is sort by "last updated".
That way you can remember, and if anyone changes details on their ride it would be highlighted as well.

I understand - and apologize, we are still trying to work on the problem.

We hope to expand the make/model field to include motorcycles/older vehicles/European-Asian vehicles that don't make it to the continental US.
The service of the list we purchased was the most comprehensive one we could buy.

On the plus side, I can still put my BMW bike in there
