I note as of the last few minutes that the front page seems way out of whack with auto stuff on it and blank areas and other foolishness.

I whacked my various computer componenets. But it didn't change anything. Other favorite places seemed top be functioning normally.

I managed to get past it by selecting "Enthusiasts Forums" from the drop down menu at "Community" in the top banner.

Sent a note to our highly respected and talented Mod just to keep him in the loop that at least one of us out in the Great Ether is noting an anomally.

Checked my lawn for crop circles and didn't find any...yet.

nobody rides half as well as they know how.

You have to put on the tin foil hat to make it work. I have let the powers to be know. I get the feeling the bowtie guys are pretty overworked.

Just to add to this topic, I use Firefox, not IE. FF v 3.0.7 seems to have no problems with the home page. I just upgraded to 3.0.11 and it is completely whacked.
So I would have to guess that the MCN site is hosted by a MS server of some sort.

Its fixed at this moment!

Thanx to whoever had to do that. I hope it was easy and that somebody bought you a beer for the effort.

Sad to see it is fixed - I was just starting to get into muscle cars!



Now, let me get this right - is it one down, four up?

You guys access this forum thru the main page? Maybe I'm not understanding...but this forum is under "my favorities" and I click on that...no "main page"...just this forum.

Am I missing something by not going to the "main" or "home" page first?

According to this and another thread (on this topic) all I SEEM to be missing is alot of bs.

I like stopping at the main page once in a while. I must admit it is not as dynamic as I would like. I think it is no secret that there is a new assistant editor and from what I hear has some experience with web developing or at least an interest in the web page content.

I go to the main page often and "Observe the Rites". There are pix and stuff not as easily accessed from the for'm pages. OK. I don't know how to do everything the short way without getting lost. My rut is deep and easily followed by me because I made it that way. As a lab rat learns A Way to the cheese, it may not be the best way. But as long as I still get some cheese...
