Are we be back?

[Shifta]

Who's still here? Who's new? Can you still post here? Haven't made a forum post for a squillion years.....will this work

[Sideways]

Just found out it's up and running again.
Can't say I spend time on forums these days but there's a wealth of info here so good to see it's still going.

[Shifta]

Yeah forums seem so outdated in terms of format. But keen to read through some of the old stuff!

[Dragons1161]

Gee, it's been a while.
Can't even use my old user name, who would of thought you would forget.
It is great to such a great resource back alive again.
See how many of the old members rejoin.
Cheers Reg.

[81GL]

Also just found out on fb.

What a blast from the past; going to be honest, kinda prefer these old forum layouts over social media.... way better.

Good to see all the old info still here too!

[camB]

Yep, I will never again take for granted the articles in the Technical section!
Time to start re-reading the EFI conversion threads.

[tubby]

i hear you camB its been a while, I went AWOL once upon a time would only touch carbies. forums back, Ive gone magna efi in the mean time.
times change eh? good to have the forum back!

[DVSGAL]

*dusts off the cobwebs*
Well....
It's been a while lol

[Fingers]

Yeah, this is great

[Shifta]

I was thinking about throwing up a thread for everyone to post pics of their current rides and what they used to have back in the day. But I can't figure out how to post pics anymore lol

[Fingers]

Happy to post a pic of my GH SE wagon, if I can work out how

[Shifta]

Looks like photobucket is long gone - it now wants you to pay to upload photos. I can't see that the forum has an upload option either. So I wonder where you can put pics to link to here.....

[camB]

I've gone magna efi in the mean time. times change eh? good to have the forum back!

I may have to pester you at some stage. Mine's still in pieces awaiting the space for a full rebuild and refresh. It's been my one and only car since I turned 18 thirty years ago so I thought it deserved a birthday present. (But then I lost my shed space)

[75wagon]

I just worked out how to post pics again using facebook as the photo storage location.

Code: Select all

[Fingers]

Nice, I will try

[jvflash]

Front cover baby!

[tubby]

guess ive done some interesting wrenching since weve been gone

[Fingers]

Ok, so a GE or GH Scorpion with a GE front?

[tubby]

GJ scorp with ge front end

[crystalmeths]

So glad its back had to put up with facebook not any more

[Fingers]

It's just a bit quiet yet

[crystalmeths]

It will pick up I hope couldn't stand having to use facebook anymore

[tubby]

anyone found a photobucket alternative? perhaps can instagram work for image hosting? might be easy to create a car based dummy account for the sake of hosting.
If we find an alternative i will throw a build thread together for the scorp and a few other projects. I figure the best way to generate traffic and get things moving is to generate content

[Shifta]

The SG Facebook page should be linkable, but it might be too time consuming for admin. If you uploaded a heap of pics there, admin might be able to move them to a "Forum upload folder" or something. The pics could stay in the main visitor feed but they might not have the same context as they would here....

[Shifta]

Just wacked a pic up on the FB page.....testing to link it here.....:

[Fingers]

The test worked

[tubby]

threw a google photos account together gon see if it will host/link



ugh. this was a pain in the ass process, but if you already have google tracking your every move and keeping a copy of everything you have might as well.
anyway will throw up some build threads to get some chat going and some traffic moving and when ive got a better handle on this google images process will talk people through it if they want...

oh and this is a pic of my DOHC 4G63 i am messing with

[Phlebas]

Imgur is my choice of image hosting website. It's very much like photobucket used to be. Completely free, it's technically a social media site but you can just upload everything as "private" and still share it with the link.
