I beg to differ, using "control f" is great in certain circumstances, however, if I wanted to run a search in every category on a specific word, I'd much rather have a database to do the work for me instead of "control f'ing" each page (sub categories)

How many times have you used the search feature on these forums? Now think about if that wasn't available; good luck finding any info...

Although the site is fairly small as it is, it'll help in the long run (assuming the site grows). Just something to think about...

I can host as well.....email me.

I have virtually unlimited storage and bandwidth.
I can also provide a private ftp account and possibly a free domain name.

edit: well, the picture links are anyway

it would be cool if they were all new write-ups instead of links to already existing ones that I have read over a thousand times. Some stuff I haven't seen though. Put my how to clean/brighten the UIM I think alot of people would think it's awesome

Here is the link https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...n+brighten+uim
