Nice, but what about FloridaMINI.Net?

I think we all already have very well laid out website, the problem is no one ever posts there much anymore.

Actually, the problem with Floridamini.net is that the sight is not supported by it's owner. A great deal of problems have occured with users trying to post to that sight and they have never been corrected.

Gleep has volunteered his talent and time to the new site so we can have a site that represents the whole of Florida and not just one portion of the state. I'm sure this site will still be the main site people post to due to it's larger audience (beyond FL) but the new site should be a big help to several clubs that are trying to get off the ground in our state.

sorry the server is running so slow right now... i'm moving the site to a new server in a week or two that won't have the same bandwidth restrictions.

i haven't had time to work on the main part of the site really, just the forums. if anybody has any feedback about the site or the forums just lemme know. i have lots of crazy ideas for stuff. now that i've found full time work i can get back into a routine i will have time to work on the site more. it's gonna be great!

it could be an issue with your browser. type about: in the location bar in your browser and let me know what it says you are running and i'll see if it's a known issue with the software.

I can give it a shot. Anyone have ideas other than the obvious sun logo?

I'd be glad to help with any design problems you may encounter regarding a logo
for the new website. Just let me know, I've a awesome set of pens. : )
Also...
It surely did look like a great turnout at the "Motoring the Loop."
Sadly, I was unaware that dogs were not allowed at the park and
had brought my puppy along with me. The kind lady at the park's
entrance did allow me to enter and take a quick look around. But,
it was surely too hot to leave my dog in the car for any more that
a minute or two. -- It looked great! I hope to partake in some
of this area's future Mini related events.

Happy Motoring y'all,
- Jim

Here's my most recent diddle. Imagine being a '70s disco band.

We can have theme T-shirts (gleep's idea)

Sunshine MINIs race team

Sunshine MINIs Travel Agency

The Sunshine MINIs, PI

The Sunshine MINIs Rugby Team

etc. etc. etc.

Nice job with the Website Gleep! I'm impressed! Are you some kind of computer geek or something? Just wondering if we have something else in common besides our cars....

Seriously, how about the MINI wings with the outline of Florida in the middle?
