You will probably have to setup a new one. Click on forgot password, at log in, and follow the instructions.

Yes, there is still interest in the subject. Perhaps it would have been better to add to the existing thread that you had started on the subject. Would be nice if we could find all the information in one location. I have merged the two threads.

Please remember to keep the discussion focused on how this impacts our hobby. Folks are starting outright political discussions and that will get the thread locked down. I have removed several posts recently.

Usually, the moved thread notification goes away after 30 days. Apparently that is not the case for pinned threads that are moved. I unpinned the notification, so hopefully that fixes it.

Once again the topic has ventured into personal attacks (whether you think it is or not, I don't care). I removed a bunch of posts. Keep it on track and keep it civil.

Gregg has mentioned several times that if you subscribed to the magazine you will get the number of magazines you paid for, no matter how long it takes.

Obviously, the lifetime subscription isn't for everyone. I don't think Gregg will have any problem finding folks willing to take the risk. If it works out, it gets the magazine back on the shelves and puts a little money in the bank so that publishing can get back on schedule.

Now I want a Gremlin that has 90% of the valve covers above the hood.

Check the preferences under your profile, you may be overriding the notifications. I believe you can also follow a thread. You can set the program to automatically follow a thread you start or post in.

Moved to General as this is more of a history of the cars than of the model kits themselves.

While I know it is difficult with this subject, please keep politics out of the discussion.

I received a spam email at work today that said it was from "Safe Sender"

...and they all wanted to be like this.

Until this industry stabilizes, prices and quality will be all over the place. I think a lot of the things that most of us (on this board) would like to see, would not appeal to the "mainstream" model buyer. We, overall, are the lunatic/hardcore fringe. Prices will remain high for a person to put the time and effort into designing/building the file needed to print a part that will sell less than 100 units. Add to that, the need to purchase a new printer every couple of years to try and keep up with the technology. Once the industry levels out a bit, I feel large companies will then make the investment for high quality equipment and software. Then we will see the better quality stuff readily available at more reasonable prices. Right now it seems the biggest complaint is the quality (texture) of the printed piece. As with most things in life, different folks have different tolerance levels for what they consider acceptable or good enough for their needs. Some folks will purchase the absolute best quality pieces no matter what the costs. Some folks will purchase the bargain basement quality pieces at entry level prices. Other folks will scream "foul" because they can't get the absolute best quality pieces at entry level prices. Of all the photos posted, the only thing to catch my eye were the headlight lenses. For some reason, I think a highly detailed lens can really make a model jump off the table.

Disability is not the ideal way to retire, but it is still good to not have to work.

I have removed all the posts about the arrest of Art Anderson. This is not the place to have those discussions. Folks can search for the information themselves, please stop posting links. Use the PM function or go elsewhere to talk about it.

I used to absolutely hate those donks. My stance has softened a bit and I now appreciate the work that goes into them. I realize now it is just a different group of folks that have their own niche in car culture. Not much different than low riders, jacked up 4x4 trucks, pro street cars or tuners. Some are ugly, but some are done very well. They are obviously not the safest thing on the road, but neither are over the top 4x4 trucks or prostreet cars.

Locked.

I have purchased items that said 4-6 weeks for delivery and received them in less than 2 weeks. Not sure if paint has to sit in customs or not.

I may be the only one that liked Event Horizon. I thought it touched on what could happen with long term space travel.

Thanks for the photos Tim!

I think most here will remember him as Modeltruckbuilder. He had several other accounts as well, but they were seldom used.

I only keep fish now. They are nice to look at, but that carry on at all hours of the night.

Everyone please scroll back to where the site admin says this feature exposes us to a security vulnerability. Really, that should be the end of the discussion. This was not a random change. This affects every post and every member on this board. Dave is trying to find a solution. Until he does it stays limited and everyone needs to work within the new time constraints.

I use a paint color similar to the powder. Can be thinned or straight from the bottle. I also work in small sections, maybe 1½" square.
