Hey guys,
I've decided to try and create my own forum to cater for cars that have both form and functionality, or even better both at the same time.
I only created it today and a friend did a logo, i'm having a stand at Japfest with about 10 - 12 cars at the moment,
Just wanted some input on maybe what people would like to see on there or if there is anything inparticular i should improve,
Also if you'd like to sign up and put your project on or any posts it's very quick and easy
It's a free domain at the moment but i'll shortly be buying a .com or .co.uk address.
http://form-function.forum-motion.com/forum.htm
Cheers guys,
:thumbup:

Oh, and I'm guessing it'll be strictly car chat? Or is it incomplete?

Well there's a hell of a lot of different cars on here so I assume if some people sign up, you'll get some variety. One thing I fear is Honda vs the World threads Hopefully won't happen though!

First impressions, looks good!
Though it seems to be mainly aimed at jap cars, i know your trying to get away from just being honda, but having the jap writing on the banner doesnt help matters!
All the best though, i will sign up when i have something worthy of signing up with

Yeah we did that today, it says form and function in Japanesse.. were attending Japfest so it was just a logo for the cars when we go and found it's way on to there, if we can get some vxrs, quick Corsas (Nic ha) and some other marques that'd be excellent

Just a fort, maybe get some more pictures of other peoples cars, and every time you go on the forum, its not just the civic?

You will regret using free forum hosting as it gives you very little control... If for example it's still around in a year and you want to migrate it to another host it's very unlikely that they will provide you with the database meaning you will have to start from scratch.
Personally, if you're serious about it I would do it properly from the word go rather than regretting it later!

I'd say learn a lesson from weekendracer ... if you can't sustain content it'll die.

exactly. No one goes on WR.
That was what I was saying to Rob to learn from.
Problem with 'community' based sites, is that you need a community to communicate with, to draw more people in. If the community is small / dead and no one posts, then it dies out and when its dead no one will come back.

Oh and AK had a point, Form and Function combined? Would that not be Form and Fashion combined?
