The word wrapping for HLC is working for IE but not in Firefox.

Thanks for pointing that out. I can see it now. It appears to be a common Mozilla bug from researching I am doing.

For an example of what i mean, check out HLC's car and look at how it stretches the whole site over because of the description text.

Other than that, great site!
Mine is still doing that on IE7.

Edit: Fixed with more tricky editing.

Also what is the deal with people putting absolutely rediculous price tags on their cars in the for sale section, it just makes a mockery of it and makes it harder for the others who are seriously trying to sell their cars. There are some nice cars in there but prices like $1000000 dollars, $200.000, $100,000 & my favorite $32000000. Nice cars but hey try to keep things real. Or am I just being picky and whingy?

It is working good for the description field now, but is still not wrapping for the fields in the left column. Check HLC's Interior mods in firefox and you will see what i mean.

Oh, and just a nitpick but in the engine list, we have the 5.0 litre 8 cylinder V8 and the 5.6 litre 8 cylinder V8. Are we able to get 6 or 10 cylinder V8s or something now?!?

Just kidding mate, great work on the site :thumbsup:

When you edit your car, you can enter a sale value if it's for sale and it'll show up on the for sale screen. Under the main categories on the home page, there are "browse" and "for sale" page links.

Any forum activities are being redirected back to AFF.

People are using their blogs to ask questions / advertise things though.

Hi everyone,

You can now add a sound to your car's page, be it exhaust note or a little snippet of music you want to have play as people look at it. You can upload WAV, MP3, MID or OGG, up to 200Kb. If you know what you're doing, you can get over 20 seconds into it using MP3. There are also auto-start and loop options. The sound section is under the images in your car editors and on the car profile page. This is still in a trial phase.

Note: I'm having issues with it in Opera and Mozilla, the sounds play but the player controls won't show. Would appreciate some feedback with your browser behaviours.

I have some test music at my profile: click here.

Thanks,

Andrew.

Just a few thoughts. I've noticed that the "workshop" section is unused. It would probably be a good idea to remove it. I keep clicking on it to see if there's anything there and am always disappointed.

The other thing is, how about putting in a dyno section like the timeslip section. You could use the information supplied in the car details page and add an option for attaching a dyno sheet and field for entering the dyno that was used.
