Your Car field in the profile

Jostyrostelli · June 13th, 2004, 05:32 PM

Viper, i'm really interested in what other people on this forum drive, or have driven. Is it possible that everybody can fill in what kinda car he/she is driving or drove it in the past? Maybe you could place it under "Location:" or something like that images/smilies/icon_question.gif

justin syder · June 13th, 2004, 08:24 PM

i like that idea images/smilies/icon_idea.gif

Viper007Bond · June 13th, 2004, 10:12 PM

I'll add that in a bit. images/smilies/smile.gif

oliB · June 14th, 2004, 01:57 PM

I already suggested that in April! images/smilies/wink.gif

Yeah but I have some mystical powers you know, I can get anything done images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

So tell me..what do you want? I don't charge much

SiR_dude · June 14th, 2004, 09:49 PM

Hey, ya, that's a cool idea. oliB, you shoulda mentioned it again - the squeaky wheel gets the grease images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Renesis · June 14th, 2004, 09:59 PM

has it been added yet?

Aah....I see. I was wondering why you were too lazy to check images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Viper007Bond · June 14th, 2004, 11:34 PM

Well, there's two options:

A) I install one that adds a shit load of stuff to your profile: make, model, year, engine, wheel, trans, color, photo url

B) I just add one profile field for your car.

I'm HEAVILY leaning towards B as it's way easier. Oh, and I'm too lazy to implement these on any of the other templates.

Renesis · June 14th, 2004, 11:39 PM

the first one looks overkill so go for the B. images/smilies/smile.gif

SiR_dude · June 14th, 2004, 11:41 PM

I think one field is fine, as long as it is big enough to contain make, year, model. That's fine with me. Maybe colour, but I don't think any more is necessary.

SiR_dude · June 14th, 2004, 11:42 PM

^ On second thought, if you're going to add colour, please make a rule that the colour has to be one word. Because car manufacturers have names for colours that are 2-4 words long images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

. Like mine would be Vogue Silver Metallic. But Silver is just fine. So please keep that in mind, too. images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

Renesis · June 15th, 2004, 12:00 AM

I honestly don't give a shit about other people car's color.. Just the brand model and year like '98 don't even need to use 1998. That's enough.

zenon · June 15th, 2004, 01:01 AM

I lurk on the Northwest Nissan forum every now and then (a bunch of my friends are in the club). They've got a pretty ridiculous user profile page.

Check out an example: http://northwestnissans.com/board/me...nfo&userid=670

I like how they have open forms to put vehicle make\model\year in, but I don't think we need to know the 0-60 and 1\4 mile times on all of our cars.

SiR_dude · June 15th, 2004, 01:44 AM

Yeah, times are too much. I think the consensus is make, model, year.

M5Rangerover · June 15th, 2004, 01:49 AM

that would be nice

and then maybe a field for any extra comments about the car

justin syder · June 15th, 2004, 05:03 AM

it will be difficult for me to fit this in, "the luxurious and spacious city bus".
