Love it, love the home page, love the store (just bought a t-shirt)...and the site is much MUCH faster.
Great job and I look forward to visiting the site more and more, especially as we get closer to those warmer months, are we there yet?

Agreed, Getting a couple of mugs myself. Nice design!
And we steered clear of the copyright infringement by not adding the Porsche crest :-)
I love my 968 for what it is & don't hate it for what it isn't!

[quote name='flash' post='46651' date='Jan 31 2008, 10:27 AM']i'm really glad it's all being so well received
the logo was something very important to me - steering clear of infringements was critical too - wanted something cool, easily recognized, but different enough to be our own
i want to take this opportunity to thank josh for all of his help putting the new pages together - he has been an incredible resource - there is no way i could have done it without him - he has been great - fast - easy to work with - great ideas too
this is what it's all about - have fun guys[/quote]
Glad I could help.. With the new upgraded forum coming soon we should have even more good things coming..

If you click the "968 Forums" link at the very top left of the page under the red car logo, it will take you there...when you hover, you'll notice this link points to just the .com URL...not the /index part.

Nope. Doesn't work for me. Actually when I click under the car at the top from this page I go nowhere. The page just refreshes. When I click the car or the wording to the right of it I go to the index. Which is odd as far as web browsing goes. I'm not complaining but normally that logo takes you home, and with all the cool new changes we might as well have an easy way to get there.
But in the mean time click here.

wow, that's sooo strange. When I click, it takes me to the new splash page and the URL that is displayed when I hover is indeed is
http://www.968forums.com I'm talking about the dark blue/gray in the small font on the same alignment as Blogs, Gallery, Help, etc.
Yes, clicking the actual red car does indeed simply refresh the current thread/page your reading, but the actual word takes me to the new splash page.
I'm using IE 6.01.

I see the same thing as darryl. The small words (968 forums) under the Eric car are a link to the web page while the car is a link to the index page.

Same result for me. The hyperlink '968 Forums' at the top goes to the new home page but the image and adjoining text goes to the forum front. This is in IE 6.
