Just following up on things to keep everyone up to date...

The migration of all the static pages of soda machines & syrup dispensers has become more time consuming than I thought. Attempting to import this data was wasting more time than I was trying to save so I've resorted to manually, copy/paste, all this information into the new database... The good side of this is that I've found/corrected errors along the way...

I would be interested in seeing if anyone has documentation on pre-mix/post-mix and syrup dispenser terminology that they can pull some text from to aid me in completing or at least getting some info into the Syrup Dispenser Terminology page...

I'm also looking to get basic info(date, location, etc, etc...) for the Events Calendar... Even if it's just url's that you pass my way... I'm going to begin entering this info as well...

The current SMC Photo Gallery is going to change a bit in the next week or so due to setting things for the new site... I apologize for the inconvenience but it's for the better.

And lastly, some of you have an opportunity to review the new site, please check back from time to time and get fresh ideas that you may not have had on a previous visit... And Thanks for your time ! ! !

Jim,
For the events calendar maybe just a submittal form that gets reviewed. I would help with that. Ton's of shows out there that have jukes, gas pumps, signs etc... but few soda machines. Maybe start a list of shows that members here recomend and build from that. Idea's anyone???

Jim,  we have never met and I am not a big contributor on information but I just want to thank you for keeping this site so active.  I know it takes a lot of personal time but I have learned so much up here it is amazing.   Thanks again,  I am going to send you a site for the events calendar and although it is a gas and oil show I have really bought some neat soda items at the Ohio gas and oil show in Dayton.

Thanks for the input Creighton ! ! !
This is exactly my goal; certain members will have permissions to add new events to the calendar.
I think we should include all sorts of shows ranging from auto shows to toy shows and everything in between...
If a show is close enough to someone, they may be interested in attending!
What does everyone think about including Auctions...? (not greedbay stuff!)
I'm all for adding them as these can be quite interesting to attend!

aspbear1, I received the info as well.

Thanks again for the input ! ! !

I like the idea of including auctions as well. There are probably auctions in our own back yards we never even see or hear about...

I like the events calendar idea. Great to use for planning a getaway.
      Could maybe the sponsors keep it updated?  Here is my hunting grounds for old machines signs and good junk!

I agree with the auction adding... Stuff is hard to find... and if an auction pops up that someone wants to
share that would be great!

Question: How many users/visitors do you think actually use the Restoration Professionals database search feature...? Where you can search by your zip code to locate a restorer within 150 miles.

I used that early on, but my search always came up empty.
How many restorers do you have registered in there?
I would check with them and see if the function actually benefited them.

Jim,
I've recieved several restorations from this contact and would really like to see it on the new site as well.  '<img'>
