Did a substantial remodel on the Owner's Registry. Hopefully it should now be easier to browse through, and search.
Also I replaced the Thumbnail generator, so it should now be able to handle larger photos. So this should fix a lot of the issues with trying to add pictures. If a picture is missing, it will be replaced with the picture (illustration) from the Model Info pages if available. The Registry now uses the each users ID number instead of name for internal identification, so if you change you user name now, it will not cause any more problems with the registry. Mal is going to help with fixing some of the missing and errant model numbers on some of the older Registry entries. With this in place, the Model Name will be automatically filled from the Model Info pages for consistency. So this should help to really clean up the look of the registry, and make it easier to read through. Thanks,

Very nice. Like the sorting options although one by names would still be nice to see what kind of car a poster is talking about when asking a question--but think you mentioned not possible with your current engine.
The larger pictures are also nice although some seem to have a fair amount of artifact or image loss when blown up. An interesting thing on 56th series is the 5th entry I see has a picture of a Golden Hawk listed as a Caribbean. Is this an anomaly or did the owner post a wrong picture.

I can't make any changes, because I'm not the owner? As far as I know, I am still the man who owns one!

I think this is explained by the default in the Model Number drop down list being "5699 - Caribbean Convertible Coupe" with none of the drop down options being for a Golden Hawk! Looks like a job for Kev! I've already started work on fixing some entries thanks to a PM that Brian, BH, sent me back in March covering the 55, 56, 57 and 58 years and touching on 54! They have all been done, but there are many more to go. And in that regard I need some help. What I'm looking and asking for are people to review the 54 and prior years with a view to identifying Model numbers where there isn't one, or where they are obviously mis-indentified. Sometimes the information provided in an entry is insufficient to make a proper identification and, in those circumstances, any entries where the Model number is unable to be clearly established won't be corrected. They'll be left as historical anomalies or for such time as they can be properly identified. Any volunteers? ![]() Familiarity or expertise with a particular year or years would be an advantage but don't let that deter anyone, all contributions are welcome. And, if you do review a year or years, could you post the year/years reviewed in this thread so we're not all covering the same ground. The results of the reviews can be PM'd to me and I'll act on them when received. A similar group approach worked very well a while back when the Photo Archive was reviewed and that had many thousands of photos, in the Registry there only hundreds! ![]()

Have reviewed and updated the Pre-War years in the Registry. There are some which haven't been updated yet because of clarifications I'm waiting on from the owners together with some unusual Henney and other coachbuilt cars which aren't a part of the Model Info pages.
Note - Kev's advice of "Mal is going to help with fixing some of the missing and errant model numbers on some of the older Registry entries. With this in place, the Model Name will be automatically filled from the Model Info pages for consistency" requires some explanation. Newer entries, where Model Numbers are linked by drop down list to the Body Number in the Model Info pages already have the Body Number as the Model Number. So I have been reviewing the older entries where these fields were originally free form text. Most were straight forward so instead of something like "1501" it's now "1016" for a Club Sedan, or "1100" it's now "703" for an Eight Sedan, etc, etc. Others required some investigation and most I think are right. But I invite everyone to review their entries to see and check the changes.
