    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Pic of the week game

Simple enough to just make this a two week contest. Don't take the vote until Friday, March 25th.

That is exactly the plan, Don.
We'll put Rob's photo and theme back up this Saturday, and folks will have their normal week to post photos.
Hopefully by then, most of the kinks will be worked out of the new forum.

Yes, I understand. My point was that if someone wanted to put up a picture on the theme before Saturday there would be no reason they couldn't.

Agreed, they could. I thought waiting would give everyone some time to work out the kinks of the new forum, hope for some bug fixes, and maybe figure out the multi-quote option. But, if they can't wait until Saturday, we will figure it out.

And I sure would like to get the "official" theme from Rob, (Rob S. are you out there? We got the photo, just need your words.)

Either way, we will vote on Friday the 25th of March....:cool:

None of the pics contain any clue that is the "first" anything, well, other than the photos appearing to be old and/or the person appearing to being lot younger.

I haven't figured out the multi-quote thing yet, either. Let me know if you do.

As for Dave's comment, I agree, none of the photos said, "My first" visually. My theme was difficult for that kind of photographic clarity, and since we strip out all the extra words in summation, I guess it can matter. Personally, I almost never add an explanation with my photos, as I shouldn't need to, but I sure did this time.

Remember, it's just a goofy, fun photo contest, and there are no rules for how we vote. All of us have different different reasons for how we vote.

Still, we good some good stories with the photos. I do enjoy those.

You have the pic of my crumpled Sportster, I think the caption was "Will this buff out?"

I'll try to check in now and then, specially for Sportsball season. Besides, I see I printed "goodbuy" instead of goodbye, so I must have been commenting on what a bargain this site is. See you around.

You just stay in your seat young man. We are just getting to like you, and don't want to miss you. ;)
 
Wow, the multi-quote is actually easier than before. that's nice. I wonder if there's still a 10 pic limit per post. Be nice if we can get all of the roundup pics in one post.

And Rob, ditto what Bob said. Stick around, you're like our favorite uncle.
 
I hoped on this AM because it's Friday so here to look at pics and vote. I'm so lost at this moment in time are we still voting this week? The new Forum setup is nice. Change is good, figuring it out.

Rob S. won, a week ago. However the forum shut down lost some posts, and created some bugs, so we paused the game for the week.
We'll be reposting the tally, and the theme. Hopefully everyone has photo posting worked out.

EDIT: I can't see any reason I not to restart the game today....Working on it.

Everyone has until Thursday night, as usual, to post up photos.

Good luck, have fun, and sorry about the confusion this week.
 
I'm out this week. I just don't like the topic. I don't want to see folks crashed motorcycles... There's to much doom and gloom out there, why add to it?

Doesn't have to be a bike crash, Norm. That's just Rob's interpretation.
I am hoping to see other takes. Think PO paint jobs, oil stains on the hardwood floor from indoor storage, etc.
 
Humm. Maybe I can get my girlfriend to pose with my motorcycle "In the Buff"...
Honey, take your clothes off, grab the camera and meet me in the garage" I don't think she'll go for it, but I'll ask.. haha
