The very first visit you make on this excellent forum is the one where you see the many different cj2a jeeps on page 1.  Very nice, many Jeeps!
 
They represents the typical member cj2a Jeep I suppose. 

Is it difficult to renew that page nr 1 with a combination of 
A) newly restored cj2a jeeps and in addition
        B) originals or washed up originals/barn find condition jeeps as an alternative 

This would give a new member an idea and a question mark:
should I join the forum? should I restore ? should I drive and enjoy? 

Just to be clear: the page 1 we have is excellent and so are the Jeeps but would be nice to see new ones.

Just a proposal!

And it would be nice (in my opinion) to make that a 'clickable' link instead of it automatically starting to load as a slide show when you first enter the Page.

It always nice to see photos of other Jeeps, but those photos only get there after the owners submit them to Russ to be included.  In other words, it is us other owners who should get on the stick and submit our Jeep photos to Russ for inclusion! Embarrassed

Sam, do you think the forum members are aware of this fact? Or should the members be informed in order to be able to propose their jeep for the slide slide show or clickable link or...?

I know there have been previous posts from members saying they have sent pictures to be included but it hasn't been updated in a while.

Good question.  I'm sure that if Russ were to make a reminder post asking those whose Jeeps are not there to submit photos if they are interested, there would be more photos there.   Also, it seems to me that there is a post from Russ about a year or two ago discussing that slide show.   If you find that and reply to it, it will pop up on the new posts page and remind people about the slide show.

In reality, I ignore the slide show until someone brings it to my attention.  I usually link directly to the forum pages, skipping the home page for the site.  I go to the home page to use the links to the History page, the Operation and Care Manual, as well as some of the other pages.

Here is the first post that Russ made about the slideshow:CJ2A Photo Album for home page

More recently, someone else LOL started this topic: Slideshow....

Also, this thread really belongs here:  Suggestions and Comments for the CJ2A website

I will ask that it be moved.

So were the 2009 pics sent in in fact put on the slide show or were they sent in and still waiting for being released on the slide show?

They were put on the slide show.   I think that Chad was referring to some later submissions where there was a delay in getting them included.

Dennis, that cracks me up! Every time I go to the page, there is your jeep, which makes me think of you and your sense of humor! Always makes me chuckle.
