Scale Masters Website (redesign)

[GhostRider2110]

Site Name: U.S. Scale Masters
Site URL: www.usscalemasters.org/forums
Site Owner: Mitch Baker
Site Designer: Mitch Baker (with a lot of help from TP family)
Theme Designer: Block
Site Genre: Scale Master Members and R/C Scale enthusiasts.

I am in the process of redesigning the U.S. Scale Masters web site into something more functional and interactive for Scale Masters members.  I started with BlueSkies them and have modified it slightly. 

Likes: the clean look of the theme and potential for the users.
Dislikes: Would like to be able to put an image completly behind the top.  Banner which extends the full width of the theme. 

Any feedback, likes, dislikes ides are welcome.  This site has not be opened to the USSMA members yes as I am still in the process of transferring content from the old site into articles and news events from the old site.

Thanks

Thanks starcad....

You should be able to see all the gallery...  Guests are suppose to be able to see them just not comment, rate or upload.   I just checked and I had no problem.  Site seems to be a little slow...  but other than that. I logged out and was on as a guest....  let me know if you still can't see them. --Mitch

I have added a couple of articles to the site for an event I am attending this weekend.

Did I not turn something on to show the logo at the top? Turn something off in the settings?  Also, thoughts on how it looks.

Not really sure.  You have at least a couple of other articles that don't show the header as well.  Look at page 7.  That one shows the header.  Set your options for page 8 the same as those for page 7 and see if the header shows up.
