Steve its killing me- The homepage that is...
« on: November 23, 2008, 07:41:15 pm »
Hello

We gotta do something about that -" Taking you to the MK5 Golf GTI Forum Please wait........................... " thing...

It seems so unproffesional and almost like the we are not fully up and running which is not true because we are almost hitting our birthday if I think...

My suggestion: We go with TC's rim idea and using the rims and front ends posted on the other side that I requested I can come up with two designs... Say of every type of MK5 rims together or maybe every front end of the ed30,pirelli, normal and such...

So then at lest when you click the homepage off google as most newbies will you will get a lil picture in the middle of the screen with the sites address and a welcome. We are forwarding you to the forum text.

Much better me thinks. What do you all think?

Mike

You are right Mike, work is underway for a proper pre-forum home page, but TBH 99% of people are only interested in the forum and will come directly to www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum (which is confirmed by our web stat's).

In the interim I will get a better page for the root mk5golfgti.co.uk address  :happy2:

Micsta what do you reckon if we get one of our members who is coming to the meet at the weekend to take a picture something like this one. Then handing it over to you to do some magic on it and turn it into our homepage.  :party:
