Central, we do rely upon member contributions to keep the site and server running smoothly. As membership grows, so does
site usage. Recently we have seen a huge jump in server load and bandwidth. As a result, at times we notice extremely
slow page loading. Many of you may have also noticed the new member rankings used to recognize supporting members.

Posted: Sun Apr 18, 2004 7:39 pm Post subject: Member Cars and the Gallery
Up until recently there have been 2 different galleries that you could post pictures in. Now there is only 1. The Member Cars accessable from the link in the upper right of each is it. The old gallery has been broken up by generations and a new album was added to what is currently the last page of each generation and has been named Old Gallery.
I tried but couldn't find the link to upload pictures to. I did something unknowingly that put a space there but no picture. I had one in the other gallery but it doesn't show up in the one you have now. Can you advise
Thanks for the work you guys are doing! _________________ Ol Paint and me

Nice work Poltergeist! That is a welcome change to our website. Seems we are having lots of "growing Pains" right now with all the new members and much more activity at ECC. But those are signs of progress.
Can I make one small suggestion on the "Members Cars" title page?
Instead of the line under the X Generation title bar that says "Gallery of X Generation cars owned by members" change it to read simply the actual production years of each specific generation as a tool to help new members learn what each of the five generations actually means. You could also add the total production number of each generation as found in some of our older historical postings by Robert and Dan.

Go into the album that you created. It should say something like: Hey add some pictures.
Just above to the right of that you will see a pull down menu that says: Admin Options
If you pull that down there will be a selection that says: Add Photos
Select that and then a new window will open that will let you add and title 5 photos at a time. Just select the browse button and navigate on your computer to where you have them.
If you still have trouble you can email them to me and I can add them.

OK, I got a picture uploaded but somehow added several entries in the gallery with no picture. I can't figure out how to delete them. Can you do it for me? _________________ Ol Paint and me

James - I deleted the extra albums.
John - I added in the years of production to the description. Have to think about adding production numbers. It we were to add those it would to include Spirit #s also and could get to be a rather big description. Now at least people will know years and what generation it is.
Somehow i created 2 albums with no pics whatesoever and i don't even know what i did.Delete these please.I'll try to get my computer illiterate self to get it right.Thanks,sorry for the trouble.
I did the same thing but added like 5 extra albums before I knew it. How can I delete them? I FEEL REALLY STUPID RIGHT NOW SINCE I WORK WITH THESE THINGS...
Send an PM to Poltergeist (Rob). He is the Gallery Administrator. He will delete them for you. _________________ Ernie
