NEW Forum added. please read!
As some may have noticed ive added a new forum.
It’s a “vinyl & tape discussion forum”. I thought it about time as its one of the most popular subjects on the site. So far I have managed move over 2000 posts to this forum.
The idea behind the ongoing adding of forums is not so we have a grand list of almost empty forums to be proud of, like some sites.. It is so we have everything under its proper categories. “ An index” Us regulars read all that is posted but the newbie visiting for the first time has to sift throw pages of irrelevant topics to what they are looking for. Having said that, even some of us regulars, myself included have bother finding something we may have seen in the past.
This is taking me a long time tidying them all up but I am getting there.What I would like to ask is that we keep this in mind & try and use the appropriate forum before posting under the wrong category. Only for me to have to move later.
Once I have complete the list of forums I will be going back to re-word many of the post “topic titles” e.g. topic title reads “vinyl” when really it should read, “I have a problem laying vinyl dry” or “I need a source to buy reflective vinyl” that kind of thing. Without realising it some just post as they feel, but using the right topic title can invite many more to read your post. Ultimately helping you in the long run.Well I wont bore you with anything else. Just that im getting there with arranging things on the site and some new features are just around the corner. if anyone has any problems or suggestions on how to improve, now is the time 😉

Sometimes its difficult to know when to stop and what falls into what catagory but I think a vinyl forum is a must I can’t believe we didn’t have one before as it seems so obvious, most of the members do at least some vinyl work and a lot of the questions asked are about vinyl and fitting.
As long as everybody understands where each post is to go I don’t think you can have to many forums especially if it helps people to find info more quickly and helps to prevent millions of posts all asking the same thing. -
not at all rob!! keep up the good work !! the more things on the board the merrier!! 😛 😛
i think you have done an outstanding job in taking the signboards to where it is today!! i’m sure everyone else will agree!! i think we are all amazed how you find the time!! 😆 😆
but then again you always do, when your doing something you like!!Nik
