Russ, does the slideshow on the Home Page have to be set up where it automatically starts to download when you click on the Page?
 
It always takes a long time to load on my machine (I know that's just my laptop needing an upgrade but thought others could be in the same boat)
 
Just seems like if that was made 'clickable' (on demand, so to speak, only when you want to view the slideshow) that the page would load faster.
 
Could be the reason alot of people don't seem to want to find info there.
 
Just a thought........

AGREED!

Auto-slideshows, auto-videos, auto-anything should never be "auto".  Should always be left up to the user.

The home page "balks" every time the "next-slide" javascript runs.  During that time, nothing can be done:  can't scroll, can't click a link, etc.

Same experience here.. Probably oughta be a clickable link.. on a side note, every time I leave a hotel lobby computer, I put up the 2A slide show and let it run for the next guy....
 
Are you still taking submissions for the slide show, Russ? Any limitations,like  only shiny jeeps, only complete ones?? (No projects in process?)

No, no 3A's allowed. Evil Smile
 
Next thing people will be wanting to have their trash pumps on the main page.

We can't have trash pump on the main page! That would make us look "trashy".  

Seriously, I didn't know that we could submit pics for it. I do have a pic of my '53 towing out the 2A I had...

Chad,
I go to WWW.Cj-2A.com when I start and then click on the CJ2A Forum link.
I don't start on WWW.thecj2apage.com so I never see the slide show.
Just a thought

I don't go directly there because occasionaly I want to use some of the links on the start page.
I don't find myself visiting the forum as often as  I once did.

The "start" page (www.cj-2a.com) is Sean's site.  Is that the "start" page to which you are referring?

My bookmark is this link like Sam sez......it's just easier.
 
If I want to access the Home Page with the links like you referred to I go there from here.....otherwise I'd be waiting on the slideshow every time I came here....no good.
