Exclamation New MT classifieds feature

Just wanted to point your attention to the classifieds area where I have made a few more 'custom' changes for us.

You should notice the new thumbs with hovering image. Take a look:

Cars for sale/trade - Miata Turbo Forum - Home of the turbo Mazda Miata.

If the original poster includes an attachment, it will show as such beside the forum title.

I hope you guys find this a useful feature. I plan to roll out a few more as they come to mind.

I like it, but most people hot link pictures instead of attatching them. Is there any way to make it so they only show up IF there is a pic? That would get rid of all those grey boxes and make it a lot better.

I think it's cool...and the attachment grab means OP can pick which pic represents the whole add best.

This, or turn it off. It makes it so there's only 3 ads on my screen before I need to scroll. Not that I'm incredibly lazy and don't want to scroll, its just that only 10 or 20% of the ads have a picture, so it's largely grey'd out pictures.

I'm hoping the spiffy feature will promote lazy sellers to attach pics.

Take a look now, dropped the no pic picture. Was a quick fix and yes, I hope this encourages people to post their pics.

Negative, that functionality was not coded in.
