SSA Forum T-Shirt Design Contest Since this was discussed recently, we are going bring back the SSA forum shirt. A number of years back, we did a contest for the members to come up with the design. It was a pretty good success, and Mark and I thought it would be a good idea to bring back. This T-shirt is for the forum, and will support the costs to run/maintain the forum. What we are aiming for is an image design, not a written slogan. It can be basic or abstract, just a design that you feel goes well with the forum that people will like. SSA Supporters will be able to buy the shirts at 1/2 price. T-shirt Design Contest Goal: Members can submit 5 designs maximum T…

Just wanted to let everyone know what is going on over at classifiedzz.com. I have decided to take a different approach to things with the forum. Taking on a new ADMIN, some of you know him. Our very own Duran will now be in charge of the day-to-day over there. We are building a much more relaxed environment over there, not many rules, just mostly a nice hang out for users to post up their f/s threads and hang out and shoot the $hit! Here's a screen shot of the updated forums.... Hope to see you over there!

Is this how the forum is going to look now unless you are a paying member? The little "Ads by Google" thing in everyones post looks terrible and is pretty annoying. I hope the folks that don't pay for this site dont get the shitty end of the deal here. Anyone else notice?

Thanks for signing up!

Well, after looking into a new user icon for the new supporter user group, I figured out the rest of the user icon's, so i'm sure you have noticed by now the new icons... Icon's also reflect the member title color of that group. Enjoy. And the new user group we about to kick off soon....

Yes that right, finally a skin you can load the forum ultra fast on your pda phone! Here's a few screen shots from my iPhone. Automatically senses what phone your on, and switches your skin if you're on the any of those popular phones in the title. Enjoy Palm-Pre users must select the skin manually.

Just wanted to show off SSA's new addition to the site. With the help from JBLCAMRY we have had 33 enclosure designs made up for every subwoofer that we sell. This will be a great resource for all to use, whether you use our products or not, you will find this section handy i'm sure. Anyways, on to the screen shots. All of this can be found at: Sound Solutions Audio - Technical Center Enjoy

To get things a bit more uniform around here, I went ahead and bought a very good looking skin and remade it to SSA standards. Enjoy **For those of you who would like to continue to use the other skins, they will remain on the server. Simply select the skin you would like at the bottom left of the board.

SSA Home Page just got a major face lift again. As many of you know, I love to keep on the edge of things, and wanted to put some of my web skills to work here. See what you think. Home Page New Menu system at work. loaded with icon's New Menu system at work. loaded with icon's New Product pages. Cleaner, more to the point. Rebuilt all of them.

As you may have noticed, I just added some nice icon's to all the Manufacturer's respective sections to help promote users to view their sections. Hopefully there will be learning, discussing and buying of products. Unlike "other" sites though, these are actually good looking icons. Enjoy

On this day, 5 years ago, we were blessed with the birth of a beautiful young piece of poo, the IHoP! Happy Berfday old friend! :gift: :joshers3: :joshers3:

Rep System Explanation and Guidelines. This is a newer feature to this site. It became active when we did the big software upgrade mid-2009. I did not lay out some rules as I felt this site's member base was capable of handling it like adults. The purpose is to either reward people who are taking the time out to really help the forum, in terms of topics or posts that are beneficial in information, or to give a warning to those posting negative or vastly incorrect information. It is a nice little feature that can be a positive addition to new members, especially when they are looking for something they need, and they find it right here by one of our members, so +1. …
