Administrator's Announcements / We have to find another website host.
« on: April 07, 2018, 08:00:36 pm »
Currently, our website is hosted by Powweb hosting. They have recently raised their price to almost $200 per year. And since I had set up automatic renewal, they just sucked it out for the next year. That's way too expensive, so I'll be looking round for a new host.
If you have a suggestion, let us know. Must support SSI, SQL, and PHP.

Administrator's Announcements / Boards renamed
« on: September 14, 2015, 10:38:25 am »
I have renamed the "Tech Tips" board to "Tech Tips, Tech Questions", and the "Tech Q&A" board to "Expert Tech Advice", to more accurately reflect what the boards were meant for. And I will move some topics so that they are in the correct board.

Administrator's Announcements / New YouTube software
« on: August 02, 2015, 11:08:27 pm »
I have removed the old YouTube software from this forum, and installed new software. It works better, and also handles Vimeo videos. To use it, copy the URL (http://whatever) of your YouTube or Vimeo video. Look for the YouTube icon in the row of icons just above the row of smileys that you see while composing a message. Press this icon, and insert your URL between the bracketed "youtube" and "/youtube" that appear. To the right of the YouTube icon is the icon to press for Vimeo videos, and it works the same way.
To copy a video's URL, highlight it and type Control-C. To paste it in a message, ensure your cursor is in the right place, and type Control-V.
I hope this isn't too confusing.

Administrator's Announcements / New anti-spam measures
« on: December 11, 2012, 09:42:32 pm »
I have put in new anti-spam measures to reduce spam registrations. It seems to be working, as there haven't been any since making the change.
From now on, a new registrant will have to answer one of three questions, submitted at random.
The questions are:
1. What is your favorite car?
2. What was the first model year for Fiero?
3. Which GM division made Fieros?
Any bona-fide Fiero enthusiast should be able to give the correct answer to any of them. A spam robot, on the other hand, won't have a clue.

Administrator's Announcements / Replying to personal messages
« on: August 06, 2012, 11:10:27 am »
If someone sends you a personal message on this forum, you will get a notice sent to the email address you supplied when you registered. DO NOT reply to that email. If you do, it will go to me (the Admin), not to the person who sent the message. The email will have a link on the bottom that you can click for replying to the sender.

« on: July 17, 2011, 09:17:02 am »
The folks who make the Forum software I use have done a major upgrade. since they no longer support security upgrades to the old version, I have upgraded to the new version. I will be tweeking it over the next few days.
