As you can see I moved a couple things around. I moved the "Recent Forum Activity" to the Left side of the page, and made the Recent Photos area display thumbnails on the right hand side.

Please give me some feedback on this. If this makes the page look too busy, or takes too long to load, then I can always switch it back.

I haven't tried it from home (dial-up), but it looks good from work (hi-speed).

One thing I've been wondering about "Recent Forum Activity" was if you could show just display the recent "thread" rather than every recent post to that thread. Presently, a lot of activity in one thread (several posts) will push many other threads off that list.

BIGKEV: The changes look good to me. Earlier this afternoon I checked in here, and didn't find the forum were it should have been. I thought maybe someone had hacked the site and put the forum down. Then later on I checked and noticed that it had been moved.

BigKev -

Just had a chance to check back. You sure are FAST with that little change I asked for. Looks like its working real good.

Yet, back when I first caught the new layout, I also thought the Forum had been wiped - until I read you post.

Great job!!!

Love the layout changes! And no worries about it being too busy for dial-up - I've got that, plus a horribly slow computer, and it came up no problem. Really loving the 'recent photos' changes!

Glad everyone likes the change.

At least no one can accuse me of sitting on my hands doing nothing with the site!

I just need to track down some new content for the website. I am still hoping to find someone with the cache of pre-war content (manuals, literature, etc) that will let me scan them, or scan then for me for publication on the website.

I still want to get ahold of a 55-56 Parts Manuals, and get that online for you 55/56 guys.
