Got your email and tested it myself... Yeah looks like attachments feature is broken, sending note now. The new photo gallery is working fine however and I uploaded your picture there. It even gives you a copy/paste IMG tag you can paste right into the forum!




To answer your question now that I see the picture (if I understand it right), no those two things are totally different components and won't be rolled into one object. One is part of the header menu structure and one is really part of native vBulletin forum software which gives you the 'bread crumbs' of what forum you're actually viewing. A lot of members (it surprises me how many) use the header menu to regularly navigate around the forum and find things. Others who have used forum software longer don't often look up there at the header. As long as folks can find stuff, I think we're good on that front.

What happened to the "Car Chat" forum? When I click on the drop-down menu for "Forums", I don't see it listed.

Still need to add the off topic forums to the menu, but car chat (and the other forums) are still in the same spot they've always been... just scroll down on the main forums page and you'll see it or click the link below

Would be nice if you can choose the forums in CL LIVE.

Example: I want to view, 2IS forum, clubhouse, car chat, 2IS classfieds only in CL Live. That would be a nice option, just something for the future. :P

Blocking it for me won't save it's identity from being hogged for the impressionable user that just found "that lexus site with the huge azz advertising banner that swallows it's name."

Sure do miss Ethan's years.

I really like the new changes, it's always good to do a "freshen up" from time to time. It keeps CL computer savvy, as well as the moderators. I'm still delving into the changes, but so far I like the direction you guys are taking. Great job guys!

Interesting Dave, I understand.

I will have to check into the photo gallery options...

Thanks.

Google Plus has been added to member profile pages https://www.clublexus.com/forums/pro...do=editprofile and the icon has been requested to be added like the facebook one (takes some coding work, so that'll follow in a few). The google + +1 link is there on all threads now.

A dedicated section for Lexus Motorsports and Racing has been added, and two new sub forums for drag racing and road course/auto-x have been rolled out (in addition to moving the existing drifting and Kill Stories sections there). We'll populate those forums with some content over the next few days to get them started, but wanted them there now so they can be included in the header menu updates underway.

Any reason why we stuck with the same blue, blue-gray, and gray colors for the design and trim that we had last time, Dave? (Not that I am complaining about it, as it is a nice combination that is easy on the eyes, especially when contrasted with some of the bright-color ads on the margins).

Anyhow, was that simply by popular request?
