Goals of things to do before late March when FG starts

[Viper007Bond]

Okay, so here's a list of things I'd like to get done on the site before mid-March when Fifth Gear resumes. Feel free to suggest additions to the list.

1. Add summaries for the episodes from this fall that are missing their reviews.
   
2. Get all of the episodes listed on the site that aren't available for download out.
   
3. Get someone to do reviews for the old Top Gears -- see this news post
   
4. Sort through the Top Gear rips older than the ones listed on this site (i.e. seasons 1 and 2 and such) and figure out which are worth releasing (i.e. not JW or BBC World ones). BBC Prime ones, if it's the best we can get, are probably fine even though IIRC, they are missing some stuff.
   
5. Add a dropdown to the right side of the news pages where people can pick their timezone. Then using that value, display all times on the site in that timezone.

Thoughts?

Number 5 should be done first

2. You shouldn't get rid of them. Isn't this a Top Gear fansite? Even if they are non-downloadable atm, they should be at least listed there. Also, the way you have listed them on the DL page looks messy cos some of the episodes take up 2-lines and some don't. You should list them like this IMO:
http://forum.finalgear.com/viewtopic.php?t=8678

3. 1990 has 16 episodes. I'v sent an email volounteering to do the first 8 of them

Other than that Viper, sites looking great, keep up the good work and have a good X-mas!

No, no, out as in torrent and release them.

Oh, I didn't realize it was doing that in retarded IE. Stupid IE.

It's supposed to look how it does in Firefox:

lol your post had 2-meanings and I took the wrong one. Sorry. You should list the 2002 episodes aswell anyway. We can do reviews of them for you aswell if you want.

btw: Advanced Browser rocks

I like the suggestion of the time zone menu thingy, that'd be helpful for the front page.

Not really a review, but I plan to add the classic Top Gear episodes to my episode guide at some point. (maybe during the holidays)
