    MGOC membership and owning a V8 is what gets you into here

    When you registered you should have received a form to fill in

    Once done you should be OK

    But that does not explain why he can't see images in the public section

    To be honest right, the idea of registering on here was to find out more about these cars and have a unique insight into what to look for when looking to buy one. Whats the point in registering in order to see images of cars for sale if you already own one?? No offence to anyone but that fallacy is pants and it stinks. I love the mg 260's and I will get one eventually (mid 2012 probably) but it seems that this forum is very "hidden" and seemingly you have to be a member of an elite group in order to have full access...sadly, im fast losing interest in this forum which is a real shame as I would love to be fully included. Is there no way of "altering" my profile to include my MGOC number??? or will I have to re-register...again?! maybe i'm being thick or maybe the 9 days solid at work has finally had an effect on my computing capabilities...

    cheers

    I've checked through the permission etc and it should allow viewing of the gallery for Registered users so I'm stumped to what the problem could be. Justin are you able to look at this? We'll sort it out Cris.

    Some men see things as they are and say why - I dream things that never were and say why not.

    I can see it being frustrating, but I dont think the problems you have viewing pictures are intentional, ie I think you should be able to see the pictures, it is just a technical issue that is preventing you rather than a desire to keep you out.

    Hopefully one of the techies will sort it out for you. feel free to ask us if you want one us to send you pics of something in the meantime.

    I've just logged out of everything and then gone back into the forum as a guest. Without logging in again I can view the gallery as a guest. Strange........

    Do you just use one computer or do you have access to others?
    Try using another computer to access the site, see if you can see the pictures.



    The members section challenge comes up sometimes. It suits owners, but can be a problem


    I have registered (but rarely go) on other sites since my ownership (of my ZTT, F, Speed Triple), this site is the only one that is pertinant to the purpose and not full of ill informed (& stupid0 posts.
