Personal Gallery

I think it should be in the NAM code of behavior to have at least 1 picture of your MINI in your gallery. When people are talking about their car and have questions...then you look in their gallery to find NOTHING it is slightly frustrating and majorly disappointing!!!!!

Just a few pennies worth.........

I know what you mean, especially when they go on and on about their car and mentioning all these things they've done to it and you see they have lots of posts, too...then you go to click on their gallery and you get nothing

...it's almost like you don't want to believe them

Seems like the forum software would not show a link to a gallery if it was empty, or at least change the link to "Gallery (no pics)" or something similar.

our company makes (handled by another team) electronic parts and based
on the vaccum industry comparisions i heard that the Dyson did not
vaccume (suction) as well as the conventional high-end bag types
during short performance tests.

but, the difference is that the Dyson has consistent suction rather than
a tapering curve so during a long pass, the Dyson has its merits.

plus, it looks cool (well, until you get all the crap turning inside that
clear window..they should make a small tint shade or something).

im not a vac pro so not sure of the details, but this is what i was
told.

back to the personal gallaries Statements of Requirement to become/
or maintain to be a NAM member.
