Default Worse thing about LS1Tech

the sponsor site bar on the right.

can't do a CONTROL-F text search for the name

have to wade through all that nice pretty graphics

would help the sponsors if you guys make a simple text searchable link on bottom or something....jsut a thought.

I have just thrown most of them in my favorites menu ... under a "CAR STUFF" folder ... makes finding what site I'm looking for much easier. Plus, then you only have to look through the sites you purchase stuff from.

Ever heard the phrase "Beggers cant be choosers". You get to play here for free so why complain about something that incidental as the sponsor list on the right.

i actually like the way the sponsors are setup on the right. i just dont like the random shuffling. one day TR is on the top, then the middle, then the bottom.

I agree on the shuffling order, does make you search for the sponsor you are looking for and I guess each one deserves a spot at the top of the order but it would be easiler to locate if they stayed in the same place How bout just doing it alphabetically?

I don't think the original poster was complaining that the sponsors were there, just that you can't text search through them to find the one you want. I think he has a valid point.

The banners randomly shuffle because none of the companies want to be on the bottom.

We could at some point create an alphabetized list but we have a shootout this weekend so we are pretty swamped this month.

Thumbs up

Holy slow loading pages batman!!! Am I the only one with the slow loading pages problem. Seems like it wasn't so bad when I first joined but it's getting worse now. Is that just cause of the amount of users? Besides that small thing this site is A-OK!

That is true but that is because guy 2 is way to lazy to take the time to look at every sponsor's link.....How long doe's it take to check them all out,, come on........This site has to be the best site on the web for our cars these sponsor's spend their money to have there name on this site...none of them should be on the bottom......We have fun and learn and get GP's for FREE...I think it is perfect the way it is .....why change it for something so small.Hell we save money from this site. ...my .02$.....which I saved here on Ls1tech.
