    2024 Club Calendar Monthly Car Articles

    Hopefully John can chime in for more context, but a reverse image search came up with St. Anne's Catholic Church in Byron, CA. That said, I can tell you that the calendar image is... um... only partially real. This was an image that John shared for consideration years ago, but as it was a...

    Alpine Horn - are we still getting them?

    Totally my fault. I missed the December edition in all the holiday madness. It’s live now. As for the current edition, we don’t get the overseas edition until a couple of weeks after the home market edition is published. So the February one should be rolling in in the next couple of days.

    Fun Alpine Pictures

    It's not my best work, but here's how it might've looked.

    There is no image size limit. However, to save database space, the software is set to automatically downsize them to a maximum of 3500 pixels tall or wide if I recall. The attached image was on my phone at >3MB, and the software downsized it to 1.3MB. So there must be something else going on.

    May 07, 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM EDT Suwanee Town Center, 330 Town Center Ave, Suwanee, GA 30024 Well, the show’s sold out, but some of us (DanR) managed to get a spot. Others of us will show up early and park near the show, maybe even with a Sunbeam. It’s a nice area. There are a few restaurants...

    I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I did manage to get a room within the block a couple of minutes ago. Now to find a stamp to mail in the registration.

    If there's enough interest, I can build it as a list, map, whatever. I can lock it down so only participating members can even view the forum that houses it. I'll have to read the SAOC's article on it to get suggestions for implementing it. Upon opt-in, I'll have to manually give you access to...

    New Site Software

    There was an outdated plug-in that was triggering that on the main site software. It was not compatible with the new PHP,* so it was throwing up errors. I fixed it in about 30 seconds after I learned about it. Speaking of which, anytime you folks see something weird like that, please send me a...

    The theme for this year's February photo is a Sunbeam getting its heart. Get it? Valentine's Day? Heart? Is this thing on?

    New Site Software

    I've added this back in. When upgrading, I found a little code that removes the annoying site name from the home page, but unfortunately that took the thread name with it.

    New Site Software

    On behalf of the club, I'd like to thank you. I guess I'm the closest thing we have to a webmaster. I am not a webmaster. I'm not a computer programmer. I'm a volunteer who inherited Xenforo and researches things way beyond his skillset to manage this site alone. The fact that it hasn't imploded...

    New Site Software

    Personally, I think this plug-in takes us in the wrong direction. It solves a minor inconvenience for some but turns it into a major hindrance for most. I'm going to recommend we remove the add-on and go back to the way it was. Hopefully they'll add the jump to latest thread/page feature back...

    New Site Software

    Well, good news and bad news. And medium news. I've installed the add on. It turns out it's $20 for the first year and $10 for renewal. (that's none of the above news) The good news is that I was able to install it on all the "Rootes Group Vehicles" forums (the rest will have to wait). The bad...

    Annual, although depending upon where you look, it’s either $10/yr for two years or $20/yr.

    New Site Software

    OK, we have our first real "That ain't right" issue. Some folks are pointing out that when clicking on a thread, it sometimes goes to the first post rather than the most recent. It seems that the Xenforo folks designed the software that way. The way the software authors think it should work is...

    New Site Software

    Welcome to the new, new forum. You won't notice much in the way of changes, but it will work better and should run smoother. Though not much has changed, there are a few enhancements. 1. There are new options for the site style inspired by the colors of our Sunbeams – Click on "Site Style" in...
