Is there a way to add pictures of your mini and yourself to your member profile screen. It would be cool if we do it a little like the "Mini Owner's Lounge" and be able to see peoples pictures so we know who to look for when we are out on the roads.

I agree with you, that would be nice to look someone up and see a picture of them or at least their MINI/mini.  There is a thread in the "Introduce Yourself" section to post pictures but then you have to scroll through all the pages of the thread to see or find pictures.

What you guys are talking about is at most thread is commonly known as your Garage.

There is such a forum for paid members:

Rob, Vickie and Alice

The question is, "When you turn on your car does it return the favor?"

True Rob, but I believe what she is talking about is kind of like facebook where you cam post pictures to your profile page. The members area is more like your own picture thread.

We will take a look at this.  The solution Rob mentioned was the initial solution as I understand it, but we probably can do better.

Rob:

I am a "Paid Member" and I find no such "Private" part in the profile.  Maybe I did not pay enough?

The Forum will not allow me to log onto that section.  Not sure what is up.

I am willing to go through "the official names with faces with cars thread" and creat a new thread where people only put that information and suggest that people don't respond to those postings at all. Cause they can use a different thread for that. By doing this people could go through the "names with faces thread and not have to sift through 10 pages which are mostly just responses to the pictures.
 
What do you think?

Are you referring to "Pictures of people and their Mini's"?  What you are suggesting is headed back toward the Garage concept, which works on other Forums.  Responses to those photos could always be a PM.
, or a common link in the Thread.

Yes.

What do you mean by "common link in the thread".
 
I just want to do something that would make it really easy to find pictures and also not clutter the website too much.

When "Post Reply" or "Reply" is hit from the Names & Faces with Cars thread it will automatically take to respondent to another thread that holds all comments about the Names/Cars/Faces(since some folks dress in costume, or I hope that is what is is!).

that sounds like it would be perfect.
 
Is this something that I should put together or should it be handled by one of the administrators?

I do not know who is in charge of these sorts of things, but it certainly needs to be done.  A vehicle. a face to associate with that vehicle and at least one real name to put with that face. 

I was not born "Soggy-1" but being upside down in kayaks and towing kayaks around was my motivation.  If I upgrade the Mini to an "S" version then the name will change but the only thing that changes on my face is to beard or not to beard.  My name is Stephen, and that will not change.

If I were King I would put the "Garage" under "Members Profile".

Hey there!  I would love to have someone organize this and make it work better.  Right now we have a lengthy thread in the 'official names with faces thread' http://www.psmini.org/forum/the-official-names-with-faces-with-cars-thread_topic3267.html and individual threads under the Members section: http://www.psmini.org/forum/members-minis-and-profiles-private_forum28.html.
 
The members only section applies to paid members and everyone forgets the silly password (if they knew it at all).  We're going to change that to make it easier.  I'll pm both of you with the password.
 
So, let's work it out and run with it!  I'll send you both an email.

Humm how come I know it then ,LOLOLOLOL.

What would work best is if when you click on the members name and that pull down comes down, you could put the garage choice there, or just some how add a place in their profile to do this.

The Paid Member Section had a Password that I was never given, until today.  That always puzzled me and I thought it was for Admin only, but I was wrong.

That section and how you got the password is something that is left over from the former President.

FYI: I am sure it can be made more user friendly.

Ah sooooo!

Yes, it could be made more easily done.  The "Garage" accessible from the "Pull Down" in the "Members Avatar" next to a "Post", only editable by the member themselves would be good!
