Aymat, whilst you are about, is there any chance of a limited access FTP account? We have a huge amount of stuff that should be being hosted on here.
Of course, no problem, I've done it before for Hugh for example... But only Volvo - V3M stuff!!! :D No music, films... I don't want any problems with the hosting. Just let me know how many space you need, I PM the login then.

Superb. Are we aiming for a loose layout or article style? Balls in our court now. :?

Well I've just chucked a loose page up on OEM stereo stuff. Work in progress if anyone can throw some more model numbers of equipment up or add to the general bits please do. 340pw

Uploading of images is disabled. Can this be sorted please?

No worries bud, I'd not really used one before so wanted to understand the no pictures problem.

From what I've seen... why can't we just edit with php and have some nice database access... :roll: :lol:

I though about zipping my V300 folder and just emailing it to you, but it's nearly 2GB of stuff :-( I'll try and get around to filtering it soon ...

Great news on that Wiki.

@Aymat - I know how you feel about the other commitments in life :-) Be patient, time for your hobby will come back. Don't give it up!

Cheers

Lol, ok. What sort of stuff have you got bud? I'm thinking that anything that goes on the ftp's needs to be linked somehow somewhere to make it useful, blue leaflets, green books etc are setup in the tech section.

Another sub thingy for brochures would be nice, but to make Aymats life easier I'm trying to work out what else we could want.
