Diamond Star Tuner Association DSM Meet

Cool.

Might want to think about a recolor of the logo so it fits with the background... not that it would be hard or anything.

Since redleader36 designed it, I'm leaving that up to him. He says he's emailing them to me so we'll test it out. The website will probably take some time to get all the problems worked out.

By the way. If you want to look at the forums on that website you must sign up and then click on the forums link on the left side. When you do that it will email me and I have to accept you before you can access the forums.

Thanks,
Zach

Just like it says on the home page of the website. It will send me an email and I have to approve you. Try it again.

Looks good. I'd like to see the all black or the red and black decals instead. I personally would like to put mine on the front windshield.

I'm getting the same error message...

The site looks hella nice though, and it'll be sweet once it's up and functional.

 

[sax_man]

Gray's lake is only open till 8pm until they get the park fixed. I really have no idea when that will be, so assume that we won't be able to make it in time to chill and take pics...

Honestly guys...I know little to none when it comes to websites...Not sure how to fix this one. Redleader36, mekal, myself, and cmspaz all got it to work.

I made a twoTSis user account on the site:

All I did was click on the forums link, it asks you to sign in or sign up, Sign Up then I have to check the DSTA email account, accept you and then you can log in, once you log in you click on the forums link and it sends me a new email and I have to accept you again.

So you have to sign up to become a member and I have to confirm it.

Then you have to request that I let you look at the forums by clicking on it and it gives me an email.

One problem though...I haven't been sent any emails other then the people I've already accepted as members.

I'll try messing with the membership access on the site and set it to have a little less security.

Working on a website for our group, the Diamond Star Tuner Association. It'll have forums, blogs, updated meet and event information, a membership application for those wanting to become part of the group, and photos as well.


What do you guys think?

Make sure you check out the new DSTA website! The link is in the quote above.

By the way I'm almost 100% positive that I worked out the issues with people logging on to our forums. Check it out and let me know. Also, make some posts people or start new threads!!! It's the only way that the forums on our new website will ever be helpful.

Thanks,
Zach

I like how all the usernames for the forum are already taken.

 

[Nekoni]

Jeeze, I find a name nobody has and it still wont let me register.

Throws an HTTP 500 error when trying to submit the survey, looks like a null pointer exception. Did you perhaps miss a field that you were supposed to fill in?

I didn't right the script myself I went to a website that basically does it for you. You just have to input text and select what you want for images and a skin.

I'm working on a live chat right now so we don't have to deal with PMs, but you can still send PMs on it also. I'll take all security off of it so that anyone can access every page and we'll see what's working.

The page that I used to make it and have to use to edit it keeps going down. They're having server problems, which is most likely why everyone else is having problems.

i'm down, but there is autocross in waterloo the next morning. can I make it to both events?

Where in waterloo is there an autocross? I have been wanting to go to an event like that, but have never heard of any around here.

it is at Greyhound Park just off the intersection of 63 and 20. if you do decide to come, be there early. registration starts at 8:30. you should probably be there no later than 9:30 so you can walk the course a few times especially if you are new to autocross.

i have only been to 5 events and only competed in 4, but the one time i did the worst was the time i didn't have a chance to walk through a tricky course.

i don't know if cm_spaz or sax_man remember me at the mlk event, but out of my 6 runs i only stayed on course 3 times. i was tired and i should have walked the course a few times instead of showing up late. oh well, lesson learned.

the waterloo event should be a fun one because it is a challenge event between the des moines region and the cedar falls region. don't let that sway you from coming, i just wanted to suggest that it will be a good show and a nice course.

Reg and tech is from 8 - 10:30. Iowa Region's running this one, and they do things a bit differently. Show up early regardless, as first car on course is at 11.

And along the lines of this being the All-Iowa Challenge... if you do come to participate, I'd suggest showing up early, walking the course, prepping your car, and then doing reg and tech later, around 10. Reason being, you don't want to have any of the SM or PRO class guys behind you, so you'll be able to chose a good spot after others have signed up. Seriously, our last course was half a mile long, and one of our SM guys almost rear-ended someone. They're ridiculous when they get competitive.

Also to note, the more experienced guys are going to be even faster on this course... the lot we're on is concrete.

you do know you can choose your own number, right? even if there were 5 people there, you could still choose number 999 or whatever.

Right, but that's assuming that one wants to be last.
