Correct. cubanseeder is a great guy and has been really good to us, but Quiky's hosting offer was cheaper (because it's shared) and more powerful, so it just came down to that.

My signature got screwed up in certain places with crude symbols. Edited the profile and inside my signature box, there were the symbols, so i edited it.


EDIT: Some thread titles are screwed up. What's your car thread title is misspelt. I think a lot of the punctuation marks got converted to some symbols and characters.

EDIT #2: Here is what I mean
