I'm wondering if it is possible to create a dedicated forum category for our Harry? There was so much to learn from each of his builds that I think this would be a great resource for all members, not to mention, a fitting tribute to his legacy. 

Not knowing the intricacies of a website build, I don't really know how easy or difficult this would be. If it's not feasible, perhaps the next best thing would be a pinned post where all of his builds and "under glass" posts could be compiled and linked. 

I'd love to see something like this happen for such an influential member of our community. 

Thanks for your consideration,

Mike Meckl.

The first order of business would be to secure all the photos used in these posts.  I just checked, and his images are in his Photobucket account. They are in danger of being lost if the account is discontinued.   The images will need to be put in "safe place",  such as Model Cars Magazine web space.  Then someone would need access to edit his posts to update the links to every photo.

I was thinking along these lines too. It will probably be along the lines of a pinned topic. Harvesting is pictures from photo bucket is a good idea too. I'll have to figure out how to do that. Any other programmers out there that can deal with MySQL?

Excellent idea. Every one of his models was inspiring, and every build thread had loads of information on how-to-do-it.

I agree
