Hi Admin Team,
Is this an option to persue? Or will it take up too much db space?

Would be useful for some of the serious modders on here to show case their cars in one holistic thread rather than pointing people to various different threads.

I like the Garage idea, it tends to be easier than trawling through a thread full of pictures of peoples cars...

Hi guys,
At present we have no plans for a garage feature. Pure and simple, disk space and bandwidth cost money, not to mention the issue of backing it all up every night. The small amount of advertising on here goes toward the core cost of maintaining the forum and ensuring it doesn't disappear overnight again, but will not pay for everyone's hi-res images of their latest mod. If this changes in time we may reconsider, but for now it is simply not an option. I don't want to piss on anyone's bonfire but my primary concern is making sure this forum is bullet proof, and that means baby steps in the early days.

Thanks Jim,
No problem - if you don't ask you don't get told either way! I knew it was high storage space but again worth asking just to know what's going on. Absolutely no probs not having one. The site is also my first priority - thank you for the update though.

Cheers Sanj, it's not to say things won't change further down the road... I want to make this place great for everyone but just want to make sure the T's have been dotted and the I's crossed first

He just wanted to plaster the site with his car.
Come on get it out, Photobucket them and create a post with tons of pictures including one per mod you have done.

Makes sense and is totally reasonable - Glad that the forum is back up and running and would like it to stay that way!
I did see on one forum that site supporters (people that paid an annual subscription) got the benefit of a garage and a cirtain amount of storage space which I thought was good. Maybe in the future eh.
