GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

We are growing and I'm curious to find out what the members want? Want something added, changed or taken away? Anything you don't like about genvibe or think could be better? Respond to this thread so we'll know about it and can discuss it.

How about a chat room.

I have thought about this but have checked on other matrix and Vibe forums and people don't use the chat. I'll talk it over with Mike and we'll see.

More contests like the one you had before. And what's up with that directory tab up top. What will that be used for. But I think the on-line store is an excellent idea. I don't like shopping on the internet but since I've been here so long and met all of the "site leaders" I trust you guys. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------"Bad E-bay experience, good thing I didn't use the credit card"

What about a place specifically for members pics? I also think a "how to" forum would be helpful to new owners like me.

Mike is working on the directory. As for a place to put your pics I'm working on this. I need to go over the details with Mike and he is beyond busy with his real job as well as family life.We hope to be able to sit down and chat via the phone and work on some things this weekend. Please remember everything is going to be slow for awhile but I have any e-mails anyone has sent to me and I pass all this info on. The how to forum? How would you like this set up? Can any member post in this forum or should members send them to a moderator or administrator first to make sure it's real correct info before it being posted? Would this forum be open and anyone can post in and ask questions to or is it just for getting info meaning no one could respond to the info. Give me some more ideas on this and I can make this happen.Please keep the ideas coming. Your ideas are what is shaping genvibe.com

Change the logo. I like the two Vibe's but the logo's gotta change...I personally would not paste that on my car to represent the club. Other than that, the site itself is quite nice.

I want my damn turbo kit already!!!!!

How about posting a car of the month on the home page. And give out small prizes (genvibe.com stickers maybe) for the owners that make it on the home page

The member of the month thing songs like a cool idea. Maybe some more/better face icons? LoL Other than that, it's ok the way it is.

I'm working on a howto system. Here are the basic ideas im building on:* You can browse, search or link straight to a howto.* HowTo's will have to be approved by a administrator before they will be shown to the users. Maybe with a option for users to view pending howto's?* Each howto is split up in the following sections: Introduction Equipment needed Tools needed Instructions Step X Description Image(s) Conclusions* Users will be able to post comments and rate the howto.Any sugestions on other properties that the howto's could use (time it took, dificulty, etc.)When you add the equipment you can specify a url that has the information about the part.You will be able to upload pictures instead of having to host them on your own server. (Note to admins: optionaly the images will be resized to keep the bandwidth usage down)How does that sound?Any sugestions?

It would be nice to have actual Mechanics or Service guys from pontiac flying by once in a while helping us with some Q & A's. However the board here is beyond satisfactory if you ask me! You guys have good info here, keep it up and all the best!

A Hoe To or Garage section would be good. That way people can see what i takes to mod/repair things on their Vibe.

How about a set of avatars for monotone vibes?

Could you make a regional forum/club for Canada - British Columbia? I think there are a bunch of us west coasters that have either joined, or drop in on the forums!

Thanks! That was quick!
