We do have a size limit per post/image, which will not be removed...


Can we bump it up? Not looking for unlimited, but my 800 x 600 jpegs are usually limited to 2 per post.

some built in converters for the metric system ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

miles <=> km
mpg <=> Liter/100 km
feet + inches <=> meter + cm
°F <=> °C

maybe some others ...?

I'd love for all the old event threads to disappear from the quick drop-down navigation so I don't have to scroll past a bunch of stuff to jump between the more popular pages.

That could be as easy as reorganizing the order of forums. If we move the past events forums below the sandbox, the first part of the quick jump should be a bit less cluttered ...

That would require some pretty fancy logic to do that automatically. How about a easy to access conversion calculator on the site?

How about adding the functionality to the existing search engine
- When returning a mutliple page thread, it links you to the particular page and post of your search criteria (obviously it would be the first post in the thread that matches your search criteria).

Multiple file uploads could be handled with AJAX. Not exactly drag-n-drop, but you could choose more files while the upload is happening. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

I've been doing a lot of Ajax work lately as well. My only concern would be timeouts as Ajax is asynchronous and there's really no easy way of managing individual streams if you don't have an open bidirectional pipe ...

What stuff do you want to see when you click a user's profile to learn more about them? Maybe...

Add a couple new photos... Instead of just "personal photo" have your car, your mugshot. (In addition to profile/avatar pic.)

Under the "communicate" section, add social: Facebook, Myspace, Twitter.

I hate the way it clutters up the database. It creates a gazillion temp tables for each ad campaign but it never cleans up after itself. There's tons of junk data and tables.


There has to be something out there that's a bit more refined.
