Or even tapatalk?

I like the website tbh never get on with the tapitalk apps etc, seems the website itself is just under managed and need updating a bit to keep in line with over smartphones and tablets, tbh I think it's the forum template they use that's a bit pants by today's standards my pals a Web designer and by his stuff this is old hat now just needs a tweak that's all..

I design websites as well, these days mostly responsive ones to suit all types of device.
This one is in an old phpBB style, but I understand there are plans afoot to update it.
But I don't stay with the site for its look-and-feel, I stay because of the fantastic advice I get here.
A responsive design would be a (very) nice to have, and I'm looking forward to seeing what is in the pipeline

Developing web sites takes effort. Effort costs $$$ - so if everybody who doesn't like the picture upload would like to chip in £300, if could be resolved easily

It may be a standard package and that package could be upgraded - but that also takes effort.

Don't matter to me, I run a server that we save our pictures to, it sits next to my PC and I also run it as a web server - so I just paste links I have a 10mb upload speed - so hope they download reasonably quickly.

If their using a Web Dev company it's standard to make this stuff work on all devices within costs..
Same here I'm here for its users not how it looks, but it still needs to comply with modern devices, if there's an option to upload from my device I shouldn't need to use a photobucket link to make it work..
And as for the money the amount of sponsors on here they don't do too bad from it..
Their doing a good job and it's free so can't complain 2 much can we, just needs a tweak like I say, like where there's a pic size limit an auto resiser and better coverage of mainstream devices...

Fitted my new wheel cover.
£14.95 incl delivery & at 29" it covers my alloy with A/T tyre.
Am going to get some signage on it now that I'm using my car for work.

Got gearbox and IRD oil changed...

MOTed yesterday, passed as per normal, only 2 advisories, crap handbrake 16% efficiency, and corroded brake pipes.
