Title: Classified Button Disappeared from top Menu Bar...
Post by: guest1328 on January 27, 2014, 09:12:24 AM
Hi all,

Is it just me or has the useful Classified button been removed from the top menu of the forum?

It used to be good to show a quick round-up of things for sale with thumbnail pictures ?

Thanks Paul

Well spotted Paul, something else for Tank to sort out.   :thumbsup:

I was going to make a post! 

Look out for 'N'porium', which is the new button.  ;)

Yes; I worked out, eventually, that it had now become N'porium. I guess that the change was forced on the forum by the Webhost?

What Paul is trying to say (without grassing anyone up!  :D) is that I changed the name of my own accord.  The 'N' before the beginning of words seems the fashion at the moment.  ;)

My hoping is that the classifieds section, or N'porium, will become it's own success for sales of our models.  The software still needs a lot of work, and the developer is slow to make changes.  I'm sure it will never compete with MoneyBay, but if it helps to save modellers money it must be a good thing.  ;)

Ooops! My apologies. Alas I teach Brand Management and changing names is NOT recommended when people are used to them without a big publicity campaign, first. I suspect NGF members being, like me, not all in the first 'flush of youth', are a fairly conservative and change resistant bunch. That said, as a name, N'porium is excellent. I guess, we needed some advance warning that the Classifieds were going to be rebranded. (Gets off branding soapbox.)

My apologies.  Time is precious for me, so sometimes I begin changing things when I get a spare moment... :doh:

I fully understand, Tank, I'm the same.
