HHR Nation

Hey, perfect, just the room I needed!

I'd like to get some feedback from the enthusiast community. See, I have a semi-blog site that I just published, that's about 60% complete, and I'd like to get some feedback on the navigability, appearance, etc. Any help in improving HHR Nation would be much appreciated.

I just tried to select a route and just a bunch of code came up on the screen.
Also it is very difficult to read some of the text when it runs over top other things. Graphics, very important to not have things pixelate, jagged edges.
I am real impressed with the start, it would be something I would visit on the internet, just needs some work. Good Beginning.

Looks pretty good to me...but I do have a few suggestions....like you weren't expecting any.

When I clicked on one of the pages, I got a popup that talked...I would ditch that...it's distracting.

On your links page, I'd add SoCalHHR's and our other participating HHR Vendors, who have aftermarket HHR parts and service. To my knowledge, SoCalHHR's was the first HHR only aftermarket parts owner/supplier and very well may still be.

I've bookmarked the site and will return again to see how it's progressing. You've done a very nice job so far. Keep up the good work.

Once I got there - pretty nice!

First page was a redirect to some GW Bush site...???

Next I was told I had to have ACTIVEX to view it???

Then it came up.

How bizarre!!!!

Anyway check out our web site in my links below...

I'm kinda just getting into this whole web site production thingie.

Maybe we could share some ideas??? I know I have a ton of questions....

Steering clear of that site for now...

I understand the aggravation regarding the popups. Unfortunately those aren't my doing, those are from my webhost, and right now I can't afford the monthly plan to remove them. As far as why I'm even with them, they are one of the few hosts I've been able to find that allow normal FTP usage, which is necessary for my page editor.
I will take your advice, chd, and put up a link to SoCalHHR when I next get the opportunity to edit the page.
One last thing ... if anyone here owns the amethyst HHR whose picture is on the site and doesn't want it there, I'll remove it. I happened to find I was following it at the Grand Canyon, one of about ... oh, I'd say 20 HHRs we saw in and around Arizona.

Well I tried to look up things on your site but the pop ups got me and I Jumped out. When was you at the Grand Cayon? I was there about June 15th. and have an amethyst. Do not remeber anyone following me out but there was about 5 of us all in HHR's. A group of us about 8 HHR's got together and toook a trip up there. Here is the link to thise photos https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/show...light=williams
