This just popped in my mind today once again. On my-mc, I had collected in a spreadsheet the userids, names, and a small head shot of most members. It helped not only with recognizing folks at BritSToc meetings but also when cataloguing the photos afterwards. And generally, it helps me imagining the author of a post. Especially so if he uses a handle as userid, and doesn't list his name in his sig.

Keith is already keeping a member list which is more or less up-to-date, depending on membership volatility, and of course Keith's having time. It probably could easily be extended with pix, phone number, location, email, and such type of info, in as far as members are willing to provide these details.

What are your thoughts? I must say it is appealing to me (Korsakov

), provided we manage to make it accessible to members only. Or perhaps even only to members who have given their permission (I could probably establish a new group to manage that).

Couple of forums have a section for pictures of members with their bikes viewable by members only?

We can do that easily, too. I'm also on a BMW Cruiser forum where they did that. You look at it once, if you've seen one you've seen them all, imho.

But for a member list I was not really looking for a list of 50 pics of STs.

What's the matter Pieter, would it make you too jealous?

I think it's a good idea. I also agree it needs to be a member only login to gain access. No need for spam-bots or malicious individuals to get a hold of our information. Many sites have this set up for emergancy purposes when a fellow rider has troubles.

Remeber that Don Feyma from ST-Riders.net has Steinar's STOC # database with all of that information. Don is currently working on it and will have it posted sometime in the near future.
