Hi Dan, I can`t find any mention of the forum colour changes anywhere. I`d just like to say that I think it`s a great improvement and `well done`. Jim.

Hiya everybody, ;D Haha, didn't mean to mess with your head Jim, Pretty much Dan is gone, of course I hope he comes back or at least joins in all he can, he was the one to get it all going, but he just does not have the time to run it anymore, RC and I will be trying to get it going just one more time. Thanks for the compliment on the colors, even if it wasn't intended for me, ha. Thursday night I decided I couldn't take it anymore and started to see what could be done, no one had been on for a number of days, I was a little worried I tell ya, thought that some kinda word had got out and everyone just quit the Forum. So, decided it was a good time to change colors. Trying to make it more...ummmm, appealing? exciting? less bland? or all of the above. Anyway, gonna give it one more try, if it doesn't work, well, it won't be because of not trying, one of the most important things we need to do is find another Forum that would like to affiliate with us, we advertise for their site and they do the same for us, that would/should bring in the people. Like I say, if it doesn't work, it doesn't work, but I think of this place as home, for my pix and model discussions that is...hardly any other site will let you have as many pix any size you want, they are always whining 'bout size, this Forum never did that and never will, plus there are no cliques here, we are all one family, I know that most of us go to the other factions talk about their builds, even if we don't build cars we still go look and talk about 'em, and they do the same for us, (speaking from a military standpoint), actually that is a great idea cuz I really think I am going to start building cars and trucks after seeing so many of them and discussing them, so it is a benefit for all, there ain't no ego trips in this Forum! ;D Anyhoo, gotta get totalking to whoever I can find 'bout affiliating with another Forum, so ya'll take it easy, and try to keep on showing up and posting pix please, we are going to have badges, more contests, maybe some other rewards for different things being done, the possibilities are endless.
Thx for sticking around and always have fun, Bill

Bill, Sorry for not giving credit to the correct person LOL. I really do find the new colours refreshing and ,as you say, it brightens up the whole scene. I`d hate for this site to fold. I`m a member of quite a few and although this may be the smallest (in member size) it`s the friendliest by a mile. Getting people to join isn`t easy, is it? You can`t go onto other sites and advertise this one without upsetting people. An affiliation sounds like the best idea. If I can help out in any way - just shout and I`ll be there for you. Jim.

Thanks alot Jim, and you too Weeg, ;D I don't know anybody of importance on any other Forum, I am just a small number amongst all the clans/cliques that I see going on in them, the only thing I can suggest is...IF you do not mind, maybe talk to your friends in private so you do not get in trouble and ask them just to visit, of course it won't happen overnight but I will keep this Forum going, so... I am going to do everything I can to talk to other Forums and see if they wouldn't mind advertising us and we will advertise them, an affiliate in other words. I think we have more to offer than alot of Forums even if we are small in membership, ha, I kinda think of us as the "misfits" of the modeling community, and just like the misfits in the movies we are better!!! I mean, i have been on the other sites, was a fairly long time member of FSM, and I know and swear that the modelers on this site are better than anywhere else, and your attitudes are #1, ya'll are definitely a cut above the rest, no B.S. it is very obvious, just have to look at your builds to see!! Hmmm, "Misfit Modelers Association"...... heh. Anyway, I won't beg and I will not start anything that will cause bad feelings,(that's not what we are about) but..if u happen across someone looking for a modeling home.....or someone my type, a misfit. Well, ya'll be good and have fun no matter what, hope to keep seeing you guys here, Bill

Jump To?? Whats that?..Did we have it?.... I don't remember ever seeing a "Jump To".... Oh! Yea the jump to another area in here.......Bill! "What have you Done?!".... Ha,ha....
I like the New Colors too, and I'm happy you guys approve too... Hang in here with us and give us a hand when you can... We can do this and have a really fun "No Clique's or Attitudes forum" and the more I say it, the more I like the Name Bill has said on this post.... "Misfit Modelers Association"...... I think its a Super Name for US! What do you think? "RC".

You do Jim, I was just joking around..but I have to admit you fit in other Forums alot better than I do, As you have noticed i'm sure,... I can't keep my mouth shut... and I tend to say what I think when I should just keep it shut. Just like right now, I don't really think I am cut out to run this forum, there are too many things I don't understand.

"I don't really think I am cut out to run this forum, there are too many things I don't understand". Sure you are Bill ! Be like that little train that could!!Whoooo....Whooo.. Ithinkican....... IthinkIcan.......Ithink I can....... I think I can........ Heck! I know I can!!....... Plus! we have all these great guys backing you, who want this Forum to stay here too! How can We lose now...Jim! you said we can't go into other Forums and advertise! But We all belong to other Forums.. We Can go into the "send Private Messages" like we have here and tell your couple of Friends you've met there about your OTHER forum you go to Invite them to join you here! And tell them to tell their few Friends and it will get a round that You and your Buddy's are here at Our Forum here, then your friends friend will come here because of You and thats how Word Spreads that We have a fun, No Cliques aloud forum... We can all put our selves out for a couple minutes and tell a fellow modeling friend who you like on another modeling forum about this site...Copy the site address off the www.holder at the top of our PC's and paste to your I-M, or e-mail, or private message to your friend and ask them to do the same.... If each of US do that, in no time We will be Big!....Plus we'll all have our friends here too to share your models and talk too...
Thanks for being here.... I sure enjoy your company and as we all become friends on here and add our own friends and they add theirs, this place can be our home in our home! ha,ha..Run in from work, pet the dog/cats, kiss the wife ? Girlfriend? Grab your Dinner plate and join in the conversation's at the "Misfit Modelers Association"......

It is a little bit of a later reply but I like what has been done with the new colors. It makes it easier to read...gives it some personality...not that everybody here isn't the personality...but you know what I mean? I think this is a great site...a little slow sometimes, but hey, so am I! I think that there is a great bunch of people here and have never, that I can recall, saw anybody start "flaming" somebody in a post. That is great and so is this site. Jerry
