=Question=
What forum changes would you like to see to CEG?
(NOT "new version of the forum" - that's in the works.)
=Read before you reply=
- This is not a petition and suggestions will not necessarily be used. This is merely discussion, nothing more. Should Lance choose to use all, some or none of CEGers' suggestions is up to him.
- Let's keep the discussion on topic and serious. Any off-topic or unrelated posts will be deleted.

I'll start.
- Transaction Feedback forum
They have them on almost all of the forums I belong to and I think would be very beneficial to CEG.
- Break up Aesthetics forum
There are so many how-tos, FAQs, and covers such a broad spectrum. Look at the number of posts and threads in Aesthetics.
Detailing forum
It would be nice to have a section dedicated to the care of the interior, exterior, engine bay, wheels, etc.
Electronics forum
Bulbs, foglights, HIDs, LEDs, sidemarkers, neon kits, alarms, remote starts, gauge pod installation, indiglow gauges, etc.
Aesthetics forum
Everything else related to aesthetics.
- More moderators
Self explanatory.

Just a fiew things.
Condense the stickies
Update the FAQ's, How to's and other items on the main site...form instance, SHOShop is still on the list of "parts sources", some new sources could be added.
Addition of a "feedback" section to the GB forum
I'm sure there are a fiew other small things i'll think if down the road...

(A few pennies of my own from a forum I currently moderate)
A strictly "OTHER CARS" forum. 70% of CI is composed of pics and vids or articles of other cars. Most other forums have this. Face it.. a car forum has interests in other things other than the Contour.
A forum dedicated to strictly PART NUMBERS. Example, what we do is post the part, what it's for, what it works for, and the part number. Makes for a very quick refrence to buying parts off line and elimates the posts of "I broke this. what is it", etc.
A strictly HOW TO section. Zetec, duratec, whatever. Combine em all.
And ofcoarse, a For Sale/Wanted forum.

I highly agree with the detailing forum. Also agree with more mods. The feedback forum is a good idea although maybe if you added a feedback feature that was part of your profile, that might work too.
As discussed in the other post, I think a classifieds forum would be a good idea.
Umm... maybe user pictures? or Picture signatures (limited in size of course to maybe... 100x600 or 100x500). I'd rather see picture signatures. It would be no bandwidth to the site because people would have to host them on their own anyways. If someone abuses them, too big or inappropriate, their privlage to a picture sig could be removed.

I'm just waiting for the software upgrade to see if these issues are already planned on being dealt with during that transition.

I like CEG the way it is! Everything is easy to operate and navigate through. The only thing I'd like to see is a classifieds/ feedback forum. Other then that, leave it alone!

I agree with an "other car forums" and maybe allowing pic signatures. But the CEG is cool how it is now. Oh and maybe hiding the post count under our names.
