OK, it may be an age thing:(, or simply that I'm losing the plot:clown:but I am finding it very hard,(lucky me);)to put a face to all the names,and relate it to what car peps drive! Would it be possible, space permitting, to put a link from the member profile on NMS to a picture of owner and car in mini2.com members gallery? I am not suggesting a mug shot(scare off new members), but an array of pictures taken on runs / nights out etc.?:D:evil::D Am I barking up the wrong tree, or just barking mad?????? Maybe we could discuss at weekend.

How about lapel badges at meets so that we know who we are talking to?
We have a similar problem in Ham Radio where we know everyone by their radio 'callsign' but have no idea what their surname is or what they look like (just as well).
[My car is in the signature picture and my mug shot is in my profile for those brave enough]

I think this has been raised before, but now the group is getting bigger, perhaps its time to mention it again.
There is the facility in the Profile to add a picture, so perhaps this is the easiest way of doing it.
Whether its a picture of you, you and your car, or your car only is up to the individual.

The name badges are not a bad idea.
Its OK for the old timers to recognise each other, but some of the Newbies, and Wul, may not be "well kent faces"

You can include a picture in your profile but it needs to be hosted somewhere.
I can't condone using your MINI2 galleries for this purpose as that's Paul's bandwidth we'd be using and I know he has enough problems in that department.
I would recommend you either host it on your own webspace and simply insert the link to it or send an image to me via info@newminiscotland.co.uk accompanied by your user name. Images should be 100 pixels square in RGB.
The is site feedback - so it's been moved! ;)

Steady now Duncan:blackeye: - remember I do know what you look like! Any more of that lip and you'll be hauled over to OT&B for a BigColesque batterin!:D:p
No idea what anyone else looks like mind you!:I:clown:

There is a site called photobucket.com. It offers free hosting for photos and its very easy to link to. Thats the one i use. Good if you are not one of these people who have their own web site!;)
